摘要:
In a secure communications system, a key number which is changed periodically, e.g. monthly, and a random number from a random number generator are combined and used as a seed to reset a PN sequence generator, with the output of the generator being used to control encryption of transmission data in a signal processor. The key is also provided to a first encipherer to encipher the random number for transmission with the encrypted data. At the receiver, the key is provided on common to a decipherer for deciphering the random number and a PN sequence generator which is periodically reset by the combination of the key and random number in the same manner as in the transmitter. The PN sequence is then used to decrypt the information. User identification codes are stored in the transmitter and are used to encipher the key, with each employing its ID code to decipher the key. The user ID codes are known only to the system operator, so that not even a particular user can know the key.

A cordless modem comprises a radio pair interfaced to a standard data/fax modem which allows a user of a personal computer to wirelessly connect to a telephone line. One end of the radio pair is a remote unit interfaced to the modem contained within the PC while the other end is a base unit connected to a standard telephone wall jack. This arrangement allows the user the convenience and freedom of using a PC, laptop, personal digital assistant, etc., within several hundred feet of a phone jack without being encumbered by a cord. A warning alarm on the remote unit informs the user when the signal strength between the radio pair is below a threshold value. Additionally, the base unit may be equipped with two spatially separated antennas to help mitigate the effects of signal fading.

A method for forwarding and storing a telephone call (204) from a caller receiving a 'no answer' or 'busy' signal is provided. In one embodiment, the telephone call is converted to a wave file (214) for attachment as an email message (216). In a further embodiment, a facsimile message can be forwarded as an email attachment. The telephone calls and facsimile messages may be replied to by the recipient for onward forwarding to the initial caller.
