Please refer to FIG. 1, FIG. 5 and FIG. 6, which are schematic diagrams of a preferred embodiment of the present invention, an alarm notification diagram of inserting a wireless sensing tag into an external socket, and an alarm notification diagram of a wireless sensing tag being removed. The invention is a data copy protection system for an electronic device. An external socket 10 (a connector socket) in the electronic device 1 is a connection interface, and mainly includes: a wireless sensing tag 2, a wireless sensing tag repeater 3 And a remote device 4, wherein the wireless sensing tag 2 has a signal transmitting program 20 inside, the wireless sensing tag 2 needs to be installed on the external socket 10 of the electronic device 1, and the wireless sensing tag 2 is powered by the external socket 10 and sent by a signal The program 20 determines the power-on type. This power-on type is defined as power-off and continuous power-on. According to the power-on type, a packet 22 conforming to the power-on type is sent. The wireless sensor tag repeater 3 is connected to the signal sending program 20 and receives the packet. 22, and then send the packet 22 to the remote device 4 connected to the signal of the wireless sensor tag repeater 3. At this time, the identification program 40 in the remote device 4 analyzes the packet type of the received packet 22. The so-called packet type mainly It is defined according to the aforementioned power-on type as a type of non-starting alarm system that is consistent with continuous power-on, and a start-up alarm that is consistent with power-off or being shielded. Report the system type, and finally the identification program determines whether to activate the alarm system. As for the non-activated alarm system type, it is defined as a signal packet sent within a predetermined time, and the activated alarm system type is a power-on packet or the signal packet is not transmitted within a predetermined time.

It can be known from FIG. 1 that the wireless sensing tag 2 is powered through the external socket 10 and the power-on type determined by the signal sending program 20 is continuous power-on. Therefore, according to this power-on type, a packet 22 conforming to the power-on type is sent. The wireless sensor tag repeater 3 receives and sends it to the remote device 4. At this time, the identification program 40 in the remote device 4 analyzes the packet type of the received packet 22. Since the aforementioned power-on type has been defined as continuous power-on, Therefore, the packet type of the packet 22 is defined as the type of non-activated alarm system that is continuously powered on as the power-on type, so the identification program 40 will not issue an alarm message to indicate that no tampering has occurred in the electronic device 1.

In addition, it can be known from FIG. 5 that the wireless sensing tag 2 is energized via the external socket 10 and the energization type determined by the signal transmitting program 20 is continuous energization. Therefore, a packet 22 conforming to the energization type is issued according to this energization type, but Because the wireless sensing tag 2 is affected by the shielding device 5, the wireless sensing tag repeater 3 cannot receive the packet 22, or the wireless sensing tag repeater 3 cannot receive the packet 22 due to the interference of the shielding device 5. As a result, the remote device 4 cannot receive the packet 22 within a predetermined time. At this time, the identification program 40 considers that the packet classification belongs to the blocked activation alarm system type, and the activation alarm system type is summarized in the case that the activation alarm system type is not within a predetermined time. The identification program 40 will send an alarm message to indicate that the electronic device 1 may have a copy-piracy.

Furthermore, it can be known from FIG. 6 that the wireless sensing tag 2 is removed and then inserted in a normal use state, and at this time, the external socket 10 and the wireless sensing tag 2 are powered off by the signal sending program 20 as determined by the signal sending program 20. According to the type of power-on and power-on, a packet 22 according to the power-on type is sent. The packet 22 is received by the wireless sensor tag repeater 3 and sent to the remote device 4. At this time, the remote device 4 The identification program 40 analyzes the packet type of the received packet 22. Since the power-on type in the foregoing has been defined as the power-off type, the packet type of the packet 22 is defined as the power-off type. The type of activation alarm system after power-on, and the type of activation alarm system is summarized. The wireless sensor tag 2 first sends a boot packet for several seconds (can be customized), and then enters the signal packet transmission, so the identification program 40 will issue an alarm. Message to indicate that the electronic device 1 is likely to be stolen.

Referring to FIG. 2, FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 together, it is a schematic flow chart of a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a schematic flow chart of sending a packet for a wireless sensing tag, and a schematic flow chart of receiving and detecting a packet for a remote device. The steps of the method according to the foregoing system are as follows: a. Placing a wireless sensing tag into the external socket; b. Providing power from the external socket and activating a signal sending program inside the wireless sensing tag, which is determined by the signal sending program A power-on type, according to the power-on type, sends a packet conforming to the power-on type; c. The wireless packet transponder forwards the received packet; and d, a remote device identification program judges the packet The matching packet type or whether the packet was received to determine whether to activate the alarm system.

In the foregoing step b, the power-on type is defined as power-off, power-on, and continuous power-on. The packet type in step d is defined according to the power-on type as a non-starting alarm system type that is consistent with continuous power-on, and a startup alarm system type that is consistent with power-off and power-on. The type of the non-activated alarm system is a signal packet sent within a predetermined time, and the type of the activated alarm system is a power-on packet and the signal packet not sent within a predetermined time.

In addition, in step b, the wireless sensing tag is powered off and then restarted. The packet sent by the signal sending program is the boot packet, and then the signal packet is sent. In step c, the packet is shielded so that the wireless sensor tag repeater cannot forward the packet to the remote device, which causes the identification program of the remote device to judge that the packet is not received within a predetermined time and activate an alarm system.

It can be seen in FIG. 3 that the wireless sensing tag 2 is placed in the external socket 10 and has two states after it is powered on. The first is the case of sending a boot packet, that is, the wireless sensing tag 2 is powered off and then powered on. After being unplugged, the packet at this time will first send a boot packet and then a signal packet, and then forward the signals through the wireless sensor tag repeater 3. The other is that the wireless sensor tag 2 has not been restarted, which means that it has not been unplugged, so it sends the signal packets directly to the wireless sensor tag repeater 3 and forwards the signal packets. As shown in Figure 4, when After the identification program 40 in the remote device 4 is activated, the identification program 40 can detect whether the received packet is a boot packet. If it is a boot packet, it means that the wireless sensing tag 2 has been reset, so the alarm system is activated. On the contrary, if the packet is not a boot packet, you must determine whether the packet was received within a predetermined time. When it is received within a predetermined time, it means that the wireless sensor tag 2 is in a normal state and has not been removed or reset, so there is no need to activate an alarm. System, at this time the identification program 40 will continuously monitor the packet status. If it is not received within the predetermined time, it means that the wireless sensing tag 2 is removed or reset, so the alarm system must be activated.

As can be clearly understood from the above, the present invention mainly uses the wireless sensing tag 2 to be placed on the external socket 10 of the electronic device 1, and sends a packet to determine whether the wireless sensing tag has been removed or the wireless signal is blocked. When an abnormal condition occurs, the remote device 4 can send an alarm to notify, thereby deterring data from being stolen through the external socket 10, so that the anti-copying capability and data security will be greatly improved.

The above-mentioned embodiments are merely illustrative for explaining the principle of the present invention and its effects, and are not intended to limit the present invention. Anyone familiar with the art can modify the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the rights of the present invention should be as listed in the scope of patent application mentioned later.
