Abstract
Provided is a method for sending digital data over a number of channels wherein a sender performs the following steps: encoding source data having a first number of source symbols, the encoding being such that an error correction code is generated from the source data, the error correction code comprising a second number of repair symbols higher than the first number as well as identifiers where each identifier is assigned to a corresponding repair symbol, the error correction code adding redundancy to the source data; encrypting each repair symbol by an encryption process which is based on a shared secret between the sender and a receiver, where the encryption process for a respective repair symbol depends on the identifier assigned to the respective repair symbol; feeding pairs of the encrypted repair symbols and the assigned identifiers to the number of channels which are connected to the receiver.
