  • Resilient antenna disturbance detector
    Patent number: 9148796
    Abstract: A resilient antenna disturbance detector is provided. A signal generator generates an unclonable integrity test signal. The antenna reflects a signal in response to the integrity test signal. A comparator determines whether the reflected signal matches the integrity test signal and a controller signals the disturbance of the antenna to a monitoring device if the energy level of the reflected signal is greater than a predetermined threshold and the reflected signal matches the integrity test signal. The detector provides the advantage of preventing an external receiver and transmitter from predicting and transmitting the integrity test signal to the antenna to interfere with disturbance detection. Also provided is a security system with resilient antenna disturbance detection.
