A dynamically-reconfigurable multiband multiprotocol communications jamming system and method is provided that are particularly suited for the generation of effective radio-frequency waveforms/noise output that successively translates up and down the RF spectrum. The system and method are particularly suited for strategically targeting specific frequencies in order to disrupt a communications network or networks, and can be rapidly deployed via delivery platforms, such as artillery and other projectile mechanisms, remote operated vehicles (unmanned aerial, sea or land systems) or targeted air or land delivery via manned assets or automated or robotic support means, or manual delivery by personnel.

A method, computer-readable storage device and apparatus for encrypting a broadcast message of a base station are disclosed. For example, the method selects an encryption key for the broadcast message and encrypts the broadcast message using the encryption key to create an encrypted broadcast message. The method then transmits an identifier of the encryption key and transmits the encrypted broadcast message over a broadcast channel. A method for decrypting a broadcast message that is encrypted is also disclosed.

A system for providing integrated detection and deterrence against an unmanned vehicle including but not limited to aerial technology unmanned systems using a detection element, a tracking element, an identification element and an interdiction or deterrent element. Elements contain sensors that observe real time quantifiable data regarding the object of interest to create an assessment of risk or threat to a protected area of interest. This assessment may be based e.g., on data mining of internal and external data sources. The deterrent element selects from a variable menu of possible deterrent actions. Though designed for autonomous action, a Human in the Loop may override the automated system solutions.

A system for near field communications is provided. The system can include a near field generator configured to generate a near field detectable signal comprising information. The system can include a near field detector configured to receive the near field detectable signal and output the information. The system can include an Electro-Magnetic (EM) shield surrounding the near field generator to block EM radio frequency (RF) signals in the vicinity of the near field generator from interfering with operations of the near field generator. The EM shield does not prevent communication of the near field detectable signal between the near field generator and the near field detector. The EM shield can be configured to reduce magnetic field loss from eddy currents in the EM shield as the near field detectable signal passes through the EM shield.

The present invention comprises a novel system and method to detect and estimate the time-frequency span of wireless signals present in a wideband RF spectrum.

A portable countermeasure device is provided comprising one or more directional antennae, one or more disruption components and at least one activator. The portable countermeasure device further comprises a body, with the directional antennae are affixed to a front portion of the body. The one or more disruption components may be externally or internally mounted to the device body. The portable countermeasure device is aimed at a specific drone, the activator is engaged, and disruptive signals are directed toward the drone, disrupting the control, navigation, and other signals to and from the drone.

A radio frequency (RF) jamming device includes a differential segmented aperture (DSA), a jammer source outputting a jamming signal at one or more frequencies or frequency bands to be jammed, and RF electronics that amplify and feed the jamming signal to the DSA so as to emit a jamming beam. The DSA includes an array of electrically conductive tapered projections, and the RF electronics comprise power splitters configured to split the jamming signal to aperture pixels of the DSA. The aperture pixels comprise pairs of electrically conductive tapered projections of the array of electrically conductive tapered projections. The RF electronics further comprise pixel power amplifiers, each connected to amplify the jamming signal fed to a single corresponding aperture pixel of the DSA. The RF jamming device may include a rifle-shaped housing, with the DSA mounted at a distal end of the barrel of the rifle-shaped housing.

A security signal transmission method performed by a first communication node includes estimating a radio channel between the first communication node and a second communication node; classifying all subcarriers into a first subcarrier group for transmitting a data signal and a second subcarrier group for transmitting a jamming signal based on estimated channel information; generating data symbol(s) by allocating the data signal to subcarriers of the first subcarrier group; generating jamming symbol(s) by allocating the jamming signal to subcarriers of the second subcarrier group; generating a first control symbol to which a first control signal is mapped, the first control signal including a first reference value used to restore the data symbols at the second communication node; and transmitting the data symbol(s), the jamming symbol(s), and the first control symbol to the second communication node.

This application relates to a jamming signal generating apparatus. In one aspect, the jamming signal generating apparatus includes a signal analyzer configured to perform measurement and analysis of a radar reception signal, and a radio frequency (RF) source signal output device configured to receive the radar reception signal and to output a video signal by reflecting the measurement and the analysis. The jamming signal generating apparatus may also include a frequency up converter configured to output a jamming signal and a jamming transmission signal measurement device configured to receive the video signal and the jamming signal and to obtain a jamming to signal ratio (JSR).

An environmental sound generating apparatus generates an environmental sound signal representing an environmental sound that forms sound environment by being emitted. The environmental sound has at least one chain of phonemes constituted of individual phonemes which sound-emission start timings as one of attributes thereof are sequentially shifted. A plurality of subgroups are prepared each formed by combining individual plural pitches from pitches constituting a primary pitch group that is a group of phonemes musically treated as consonances if sounded simultaneously. One of the plurality of subgroups selected at random is set to each of the sections of the chain of phonemes, and each of the individual phonemes of each section of the chain of phonemes is set to a pitch selected at random from the plural pitches constituting the selected subgroup to attain hypersonic effects.
