Certain aspects provide a method for radar detection by an apparatus. The method including transmitting a radar waveform in transmission time intervals (TTIs) to perform detection of a target object. The method further includes varying the radar waveform across TTIs based on one or more radar transmission parameters.

In one embodiment, a method includes receiving, by a network controller and from a first node of a network, information associated with a data stream of the network and determining, by the network controller, a segmentation for the data stream. The segmentation includes a plurality of data segments and the plurality of data segments includes a first data segment. The method further includes determining, by the network controller, a data flow path for each of the plurality of data segments and determining, by the network controller, a first wavelength to assign to the first data segment. The first wavelength is one of a plurality of wavelengths spanning between the first node and a second node of the network.

A method for transmitting data carrying optical information over an optical channel, comprising the steps of providing an optical transmitter consisting of a light source being a Mode-Locked Optical Frequency Comb (MLFC) for generating a frequency comb of multiple carriers, each of which being modulated by a baseband signal; an optical modulator for modulating each and all of the multiple carriers in a modulation bandwidth extending up to the modes' frequency spacing between the multiple carriers; performing all-optical encoding of the modulated carriers by manipulating the optical amplitude and/or phase and/or polarization of all optically modulated carriers; and transmitting, by the optical transmitter, the encoded modulated carriers to an optical receiver, over an optical channel

The concepts, systems and methods described herein are directed towards encrypting optical signals prior to the optical signals being sensed, for example, by a sensor. An optical phased array (OPA) may be disposed between an optical chain and a sensor to encrypt an optical signal being sensed before the signal is received at the sensor. The method includes receiving an optical signal having a plurality of beams organized in a first arrangement at an optical phased array, encrypting the optical signal in the optical phased array by steering or otherwise phase shifting the plurality of beams from the first arrangement to a second arrangement, transmitting the plurality of beams in the second arrangement from the optical phased array to a sensor and sensing the encrypted optical signal having the plurality of beams in the second arrangement at the sensor.

An optical security method for object authentication using photon-counting encryption implemented with phase encoded QR codes. By combining the full phase double-random-phase encryption with photon-counting imaging method and applying an iterative Huffman coding technique, encryption and compression of an image containing primary information about the object is achieved. This data can then be stored inside of an optically phase-encoded QR code for robust read out, decryption, and authentication. The optically encoded QR code is verified by examining the speckle signature of the optical masks using statistical analysis.

A data transmission method, a base station, and user equipment are presented. The method includes performing rotation processing on a preset precoding matrix; performing precoding processing on to-be-sent information according to a precoding matrix obtained after the rotation processing; and sending to-be-sent information obtained after the precoding processing. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, indication information shared by a transmit end and a receive end is used to indicate whether to rotate a precoding matrix, and to-be-sent information is precoded according to the indication information. The transmit end and the receive end in this method learn the indication information in advance, and system security is improved by instructing the precoding matrix to perform flexible transformation.

Aspects of the present disclosure describe scrambling of information for wireless communications to prevent deciphering or altering by unintended recipients.
