Abstract

Known telecommunication systems like a DECT-system comprising a base-station and a handset or like a Digital Home Network system comprising a controller and several devices or a car radio system comprising a car radio and a front are based upon an authorisation process for introducing a new device or for coupling an already introduced but decoupled old device to said telecommunication system. Such authorisation process, which often is user-unfriendly, can be partially or even completely avoided by either using the result of an old identification process or by using a new identification process for identifying a user, which can be done in a much more user-friendly way.
