Abstract: A method and system is provided for enabling spectrum sensing capability in a network having at least one primary user and a plurality of secondary users configured to communicate using a shared spectrum. The methods and systems include receiving values from sensors corresponding to received signal strength from a primary user in one or more frequencies of the shared spectrum. The values are used to interpolate at least one additional value between the sensors. A detection threshold is determined for sensing a signal transmitted from the primary user based on an acceptable amount of interference. The primary user is then determined to be transmitting in the one or more frequencies of the shared spectrum if any of the values received from the plurality of sensors or the at least one additional value interpolated along the path exceeds the detection threshold.

Abstract: The present disclosure presents methods, apparatuses, and systems to bolster communication security, and more particularly to utilize a constant time cryptographic co-processor engine for such communication security. For example, the disclosure includes a method for secure communication, comprising receiving encrypted data at a receiving device; obtaining a randomization for at least one bit of the encrypted data; modifying an execution of a cryptographic algorithm on the at least one bit to obtain a randomized cryptographic algorithm based on the randomization; and executing the randomized cryptographic algorithm on the at least one bit of encrypted data to recover original data associated with the encrypted data.
