  • Patent number: 11032059
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for enhancing security of encrypted messages. One or more bits may be selected in an encrypted message, with the one or more bits being selected such that there is no sequence of consecutive bits in the message, having a length that is greater than or equal to a defined threshold value, that is free of bit errors. An adjustment may be applied to the encrypted message prior to transmitting the message to introduce bit errors in the message, with the adjustment being configured to affect the one or more selected bits. The adjustment may include inverting the one or more selected bits. The one or more bits may be selected and/or adjustment may be configured to reduce detectability of an encryption key used in encrypting messages.

  • Patent number: 9596598
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for reducing detectability of encryption keys, which may be used to encrypt messages transmitted in a network (e.g., between a base station and a mobile station, such as over the air). Random bit errors may be introduced into the messages to artificially lowering transmission quality, thus makes it harder to detect the encryption key from well-known messages. The random bit errors may be introduced by inverting one or more randomly selected bits in the encrypted message prior to transmitting.

  • Patent number: 8929818
    Abstract: A user-controlled method for modifying the radiation of a wireless device (1) in one or more volumes used for in-house communications, comprising user-selecting this one or more volumes (10, 10?, 10?, 10??, 10IV) while holding the orientation of this wireless device (1) modifying the intensity of this radiation in one or more directions so as to control the radiation in this user-selected one or more volumes (10, 10?, 10?, 10??, 10IV). The invention allows the user to define volumes or regions where radiation should be modified, e.g. reduced, and one or more temporal intervals in which this radiation should be reduced.
