Abstract
A wireless device access system employs short-range wireless communication to require the proximity of a user device to a restricted area prior to communicating an unlock request. The access system authenticates the unlock request and the proximity of the user to the restricted area prior to transmitting an unlock command to an access governor. Additionally, the access system uses an access node configured to shape the radiation pattern of short-range wireless communications to better determine the position of a user proximate to an access governor.
