Baud rate modulation encoding/decoding method and device for remote controller

USPTO Application #: 20070286414
Title: Baud rate modulation encoding/decoding method and device for remote controller
Abstract: The present invention generally relates to encoding/decoding method and device used for remote controller, which utilizes baud rate to encrypt data for transmission. The encoding device of the present invention comprises an encoder for encoding an identification code into an encrypted code; an interpreter for interpreting the un-encoded portion of the identification code and the encrypted code into a transmission signal. Wherein, when the encrypted code is in a first base, the plain code corresponding to the encrypted code will be transmitted with a first baud rate; and when the encrypted code is in a second base, the plain code corresponding to the encrypted code will be transmitted with a second baud rate. The decoding device according to the present invention comprises a receiver for receiving the transmission signal; a interpreter connected to the receiver for interpreting the transmission signal into a received signal; a encoder for utilizing the same encoding algorithm as in the transmitter to generate a comparison code; and a processor for comparing the received signal and the comparison code and for the process control.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0001] 1. Field of the Invention

[0002] The present invention generally relates to wireless signal transmission encoding/decoding method and device, more particularly, to encoding/decoding method and device that utilizing baud rate to encrypt data for transmission.

[0003] 2. Description of the Prior Art

[0004] Remote controller is used wildly in our daily life. Its application can be found in many fields such as car security, house security, audio/video equipment, and other appliances. In such applications, remote controller plays an important roll in convenience for usage. Although in many applications, security is not a major concern, it is a critical issue in some certain circumstances such as in car security system, home security, and TV channel protection.

[0005] In general, the remote controller system can be classified into two categories of one-direction and bi-direction. In a one-direction remote controller system, transmitter simply transmits control signal to control equipment in remote location. While in a bi-direction remote controller system, control signal is transmitted interactively between transmitter and receiver. The bi-direction remote controller system is much more reliable for it employs the function of mutual authentication. However, since it is complex and expensive, it is seldom used except in some certain cases.

[0006] In a simplest remote controller system, the control signal is formatted in plaintext and transmitted wirelessly to the receiver. Since the control signal is transmitted in plaintext, it is so easy to be eavesdropped and modified by a hacker, so the system is extremely unsecured. A common example can be seen pretty often in daily life, that is, when someone uses a remote controller for opening his own garage door, he is opening his neighborhood's garage door at the same time.

[0007] As technology advanced and for security reason, more and more remote controllers transmit signal in encrypted format, which means, when a remote controller is transmitting signals, the signal is separated into plain code and encrypted code. The plain code is in regular format, comprising fixed data structure, while the encrypted code, in transmission, is encrypted with certain mathematical algorithm and is difficult to be decoded by hacker. The concept of encrypting signal for security reason is not so difficult to understand, however, the practical implementation is quite complex, and the cost is relatively high. The present invention is to disclose a signal transmitting method and device that plain code and encrypted code will be encapsulated in one single signal. The application can be seen where the plain code is used in a public entrance security system such as a community gateway or a public garage door that only need the plain code for identification, while in different application such as a private garage door security system, the plain code and the encrypted code will be verified in the same time for strict authentication.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

[0008] Accordingly, it is the primary object of the present invention to provide wireless signal transmission encoding/decoding method and device, more particularly, the encoding/decoding method and device that utilizes logical algorithm to encrypt signal for transmission.

[0009] It is the second object of the present invention to encoding/decoding method and device that is simple and less expensive.

[0010] The method of the present invention is to employ baud rate modulation to encrypt transmission data and encapsulate the transmission data in transmission signal for transmission, comprising the steps as follows:

[0011] (a). utilizing a identification signal to generate a plain code and a encrypted code;

[0012] (b). utilizing the encrypted code to control the baud rate for transmitting the plain code; when the encrypted code is in a first base, the plain code corresponding to the encrypted code will be transmitted with a first baud rate; when the encrypted code is in a second base, the plain code corresponding to the encrypted code will be transmitted with a second baud rate.

[0013] The device of the present invention is to employ baud rate modulation to encrypt transmission data, comprising:

[0014] an encoder for receiving an identification code and encoding a portion of the identification code into an encrypted code;

[0015] an interpreter being connected to the encoder for complying the un-encoded portion of the identification code and the encrypted code into a transmission signal;

[0016] wherein, in the encoding process, the encoder will encode the length of the waveform of the un-encoded portion of the identification code according to the following rules,

[0017] (1). when the encrypted code is in a first base, the plain code corresponding to the encrypted code will be transmitted with a first baud rate;

[0018] (2). when the encrypted code is in a second base, the plain code corresponding to the encrypted code will be transmitted with a second baud rate.

[0019] The decoding device of the remote controller of the present invention comprises:

[0020] a receiver for receiving transmission signal;

[0021] an interpreter being connected to the receiver for utilizing a given baud rate to interpret the transmission signal into a received signal;

[0022] an encoder utilizing a logical algorithm to generate a comparison code; and
