Abstract
A method and/or system for transmitting sequences of signals/data from a transmitter to a receiver and for authenticating the sequences of signals/data may consist of a precalculation phase and of a communication phase in which the signals are transmitted together with the checking sums. In the precalculation phase, a pseudo-random sequence may be first generated by means of a cryptographic algorithm from a time-variable parameter and other initialization data. Non-overlapping sections (z() of a sequence (z) having each m bits may be associated to signals (s(i)), wherein i=1, 2, . . . n, of a signal storage. Further non-overlapping m bit sections (t(i)) of the remaining sequence may be selected for coding numbers (1, 2, . . . MAX). The transmitter may transmit the initialization information and the time-variable parameters to the receiver and the receiver may calculate the pseudo-random sequence (z) and checks the receiver authentication token (T). The transmitter may accept the received signals as being authentic when the received authentication tokens match the calculated ones.
