Abstract

A trunked communication system having a control resource that encrypts system control messages. In one embodiment, the encryption includes controlling a bit interleaving process (208, 311) as a function of an encryption key (203, 321). In another embodiment, the encryption process includes reordering (202, 302) the information bits that constitute the message itself. If both encryption processes are used, the controlling encryption key can either be the same for both processes, or different.
