Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to circuits, apparatuses and methods for generating communication signals resistant to early-detect-late-commit attacks. An example embodiment, a plurality of data symbols is generated that includes first and second data symbols. A communication signal is generated that is decodable according to a mapping of the first and second data symbols to respective first and second waveforms. The first waveform has a leading edge that is indicative of the first waveform, and second waveform has a second leading edge that is indicative of the second waveform. In generating the communication signal, a first portion of the communication signal is modulated according to the first waveform for the first data symbol. A second portion of the communication signal is modulated, for the second data symbol, according to a modified second waveform having a leading edge that is indicative of the first waveform.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure are directed to detecting interactions with signals, such as by an attacker attempting to gain access to a vehicle. Signal waveforms used for authentication are evaluated, for communications between respective circuits. Possible interaction by a third circuit is analyzed by detecting variations in characteristics of a leading portion of a data symbol relative to known characteristics of the leading portion of the data signal. A condition indicative of whether the signal waveform has been interacted with and retransmitted is determined, based on the detected variations. For instance, if the variations are indicative of a known type of variation induced by interaction and retransmission, such interaction and transmission can be detected. Where the determined condition is not deemed an attack, an output signal that provides vehicle access is generated based on the determined condition.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to apparatuses and methods involving the detection of signal characteristics. As may be implemented in accordance with one or more embodiments, an apparatus includes a radar or sonar transceiver that transmits signals and receives reflections of the transmitted signals. A data compression circuit determines a compression factor based on characteristics of the signals, such as may relate to a channel over which the signal passes and/or related aspects of an object from which the signals are reflected (e.g., velocity, trajectory and distance). Data representing the signals is compressed as a function of the determined compression factor.
