Abstract

Disclosed is a synchronous secure communication system wherein an information signal is encrypted in an encryption means. The encrypted signal is compressed to allow the insertion of a synchronization signal, and the combined signals are transmitted. At the receiver, the synchronization signal is extracted and used to synchronize the receiver to the incoming data stream thereby improving receiver sensitivity and range.
