Abstract
A computer includes a processor and a memory, the memory stores instructions executable by the processor to generate first and second messages for transmission via a communications bus via a first modulation mode and to generate first and second watermarking signals for transmission on the communications bus via a second modulation mode, in which the first and second modulation modes are isolated from each other. The instructions may additionally be to transmit the first message overlaid by the first watermarking signal and to transmit the second message overlaid by the second watermarking signal, the second watermarking signal having a parameter that varies from the first watermarking signal.
