Secure Joint Sensing and Communications via Random Sequence Encoding
Abstract
Our proposal focuses on the unified solution to sensor and communication fusion without the use of tags or embedding. In our approach, the same transmissions are used concurrently to achieve sensing and communications, thus maximizing the antenna beam and energy utilization. The method offers excellent potential for enhanced security of communication data via employing random sequence encoding (RSE), originally developed by the authors. We are proposing to investigate the performance of RSE-based approach to sensor and communication fusion for fully autonomous platforms employing ad-hoc, asynchronous, non-line of sight (NLOS) communications and simultaneous sensing of the environment in potentially RF-congested, hazardous, and-or adverse conditions. The resultant waveforms will not only possess superior data security characteristics but will also provide for optimized performance of radar sensing and communication functionalities.
