Abstract

A mobile gaming system includes a mobile communication device connected to a gaming device via a wireless network. Encrypted gaming outcomes are transmitted from the gaming device to the mobile communication device via the wireless network as a single packet.

Claims (22)

1. A mobile gaming system, comprising:

a mobile communication device adapted to play a game and to generate a game outcome request;

a wireless network; and

a gaming device adapted to receive said game outcome request from said mobile communication device via said wireless network, wherein

when said gaming device receives said game outcome request, said gaming device generates a plurality of game outcomes, encrypts said plurality of game outcomes using a key, and transmits said plurality of encrypted game outcomes in a single packet to said mobile communication device, and

when said mobile communication device receives said single packet including said plurality of encrypted game outcomes and a user plays said game, said mobile communication device generates and transmits a key request to said gaming device via said wireless network, and

when said gaming device receives said key request, said gaming device transmits said key via said wireless network, and said mobile communication device decrypts one of said plurality of encrypted game outcomes using said key, thereby reducing a network traffic via said wireless network.

2. The mobile gaming system according to claim 1 , wherein said mobile communication device includes a game outcome memory for storing said plurality of encrypted game outcomes.

3. The mobile gaming system according to claim 2 , wherein said gaming device includes a settlement interface device for providing communication between said gaming device and a financial services provider.

4. The mobile gaming system according to claim 3 , wherein said gaming device further includes a web module adapted to communicate with an Internet.

5. The mobile gaming system according to claim 3 , wherein said gaming device further includes a memory device for storing account information for a plurality of users.

7. The mobile gaming system according to claim 6 , wherein said gaming device further includes a system administrator interface for enabling a system administrator to monitor an operation of said gaming device.

8. The mobile gaming system according to claim 7 , wherein said gaming device further includes a gaming module adapted to generate said plurality of game outcomes using a random number generator.

9. A method for reducing a system response time of a networked system, comprising the steps of:

generating an information request in a mobile communication device;

transmitting said information request via a wireless network;

receiving in a server said information request and producing a plurality of information units in response to said information request;

encrypting said plurality of information units using a key;

transmitting said plurality of encrypted information units in a single packet from said server to said mobile communication device via said wireless network, wherein

when said mobile communication device receives said single packet including said plurality of encrypted information units, said mobile communication device generates and transmits a key request to said server via said wireless network, and

when said server receives said key request, said server transmits said key via said wireless network, and said mobile communication device decrypts one of said plurality of encrypted information units using said key, thereby reducing the system response time of said network system.
