  • Publication number: 20160036585
    Abstract: A method of simulating communication channel noise comprising generating, by a FPGA or ASIC, a stream of uniformly distributed random variables using a cryptographic algorithm, applying a mathematical transform to the uniformly distributed random variables using the FPGA or ASIC to create a signal comprised of normally distributed random variables, adjusting a mean and variance of the signal using the FPGA or ASIC, outputting, by the FPGA or ASIC, an output noise signal, adding, by the FPGA or ASIC, I and Q samples of the output noise signal to I and Q symbols of a data carrier signal at complex baseband, modulating, using a modulator, the summed I and Q symbols to create a composite carrier signal, and upconverting using an upconverter, the composite carrier signal for transmission across a telecommunications channel to simulate a noisy telecommunications channel.

  • Patent number: 8687808
    Abstract: A method for encryption and decryption synchronization for a communications channel comprising encrypting a communications channel using a data encryption device, the communications channel comprising a data stream having unique information native to the data stream, transmitting the encrypted data stream using a transmitter without applying an additional framing structure or a multiplexing signaling message after the data stream is encrypted such that the encrypted data stream does not require additional bandwidth to support cryptographic synchronization, receiving by a receiver comprising a decryption device, the transmitted encrypted data stream, and identifying the unique information within the transmitted data stream by iteratively decrypting the encrypted data stream using a processor until a cryptographic parameter is found that results in cryptographic synchronization between the encryption and decryption devices based on a priori knowledge of the unique information within the transmitted data stream.

  • Patent number: 8477937
    Abstract: A method for encrypting an information carrier comprising generating a sequence of data using a sequence generator, modulating, using a first modulator an output from the sequence generator such that an interference signal results, encoding the interference generator's synchronization information using an encoder, modulating, using a second modulator, the encoded synchronization information such that a synchronization carrier signal results, spreading the synchronization carrier signal using a spreader such that a spread sub-carrier synchronization signal results, and combining the modulated information carrier signal, interference signal, and spread sub-carrier synchronization signal using a signal combiner such that a composite signal results, the interference signal having one or more signal characteristics that results in obfuscation of the information carrier signal when the information carrier signal and interference signal are combined.

  • Patent number: 6993009
    Abstract: A communication apparatus that shares precise return channel uplink timing information includes a common symbol timing reference and one or more control stations that each transmit independent asynchronous DVB data streams which evenly share the common symbol timing. The control stations each include respective delay trackers to determine broadcast transmission delays associated with the particular control station and transmission path. Each broadcast data stream includes the same non real-time frame marker and a transmission delay message particular to the respective control station. A remote receiver receives one of the broadcast streams and timestamps the non real-time frame marker with a local time of receipt. A timing recovery circuit determines an upcoming return channel frame start time by adjusting the local time of receipt by the particular broadcast transmission delay and a unique receiver offset time.
