Maintenance of wireless devices

說明書
If the owner of the wireless accessory 201 wishes to locate the wireless accessory, the owner can access a device locator user interface (e.g., device locator UI 204) on the mobile device 102. The device locator UI 204 can be associated with a device locator application that is used to locate electronic devices and accessories that are registered with an online account of the user, such as a cloud services account or another type of online account. The device owner, using the device locator UI 204, can query the device locator server 203 for location data that may have been transmitted to the device locator server by a finder device 202 of the wireless accessory 201. In one embodiment, the mobile device 102 can transmit the public encryption key associated with the wireless accessory 201 to the device locator server 203. The device locator server 203 can then return any stored location data that corresponds with the public encryption key. The location data returned to the mobile device 102 can be encrypted data that is encrypted by the finder device 202 using the public encryption key. The mobile device 102 can use an associated private key to decrypt the encrypted location data. The decrypted location data can then be processed by the mobile device 102 to determine a most probable location for the wireless accessory 201. In various embodiments, the most probable location for the wireless accessory 201 can be determined by triangulation from multiple received locations and using other data, such as a beacon signal RSSI associated with each location and timestamp or UWB ranging data included within the location data.
