Abstract
Systems and methods of preventing interception of radiofrequency (RF) signals can include a first transmitter device (cover signal generator) and a second transmitter device (protected signal generator). The first transmitter device may have a first set of antennae to transmit a first RF signal in plurality of directions. The first RF signal may have a first signal strength in a target direction less than in directions adjacent to the target direction. The second transmitter device may have a second set of antennae to transmit a second RF signal to a target receiver according to an interception prevention configuration. The interception prevention configuration may include having the target receiver located along the target direction and the second RF signal having a second signal strength greater than a detection threshold relative to the first signal strength along the target direction.
