Abstract
A remote firing system for remotely detonating an explosive charge includes a smart controller that utilizes a unique encryption key to generate encrypted command and control messages. The messages include a detonation precondition that must occur before detonation. A bridge transceiver communicates with the smart controller and receives the encrypted messages generated from the smart controller. The bridge transceiver transmits RF signals containing the encrypted messages. At least one remote communicator is in communication with the bridge transceiver and configured to be connected to the explosive charge. The remote communicator receives the RF signals transmitted by the bridge transceiver, processes these received RF signals to obtain the encrypted messages and decrypts the encrypted messages with the encryption key to extract the detonation precondition. The remote communicator generates a trigger signal that causes detonation of the explosive charge upon fulfillment of the detonation precondition.
