Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide multiple cyclic prefix lengths for either both the data-payload and frame control header or only the data payload. Frame control header (FCH) and data symbols have an associated cyclic prefix. A table is transmitted in the FCH symbols, which includes a cyclic prefix field to identify the cyclic prefix length used in the data payload. A receiver may know the cyclic prefix length used in the FCH symbols in one embodiment. In other embodiments, the receiver does not know the FCH cyclic prefix length and, therefore, attempts to decode the FCH symbols using different possible cyclic prefix lengths until the FCH symbols are successfully decoded.

Abstract: In aspects of string matching in encrypted data, a computing device stores homomorphic encrypted data as a dataset, and implements a string matching application that receives an encrypted query string as a query of the homomorphic encrypted data.

The string matching application can compute, for each row of the dataset, a sum of some function of dataset bits and query bits for a row result, and multiply the row results of the computed rows to determine matching strings. Alternatively, the string matching application can compute, for each row of the dataset, a product over some function of the dataset bits and the query bits for a row result, and add the row results of the computed rows to determine matching strings.
