Abstract

A method and system for a synchronized pseudorandom privacy modem makes use of a pseudorandom signal generator to index into a table of N signal spaces thereby altering gain and phase modifiers so or to modify both the gain and phase of portions of the data signal being transmitted from a QAM modem and thus transmit an encrypted signal pattern to the other end of the communications channel. The modem transmitter circuit includes a data scrambler, and QAM signal point mapper, connected in series, as well as a pair of mixers having inputs from the pseudorandom signal generator and functioning to modify the gain and phase of portions of the QAM signal point mapper output signal before they are pulse amplitude modulated, filtered, converted to analog form, and transmitted over the communications channel. Complementary circuit elements in the receiver, which have been synchronized with those of the transmitter by baud rate counters at both locations, demodulate and decode the received encrypted signal.
