A Covert α-Stable Noise-Based Extended Random Communication by Incorporating Multiple Inverse Systems by Areeb Ahmed, Zoran Bosnic

“…The retrieval of the binary message stream from the inverted signals is performed by the ERCS receiver by performing an estimation using the maximum extreme-value method. By spreading the tasks of encoding and decoding across various inverse systems, the suggested approach raises the difficulty level for eavesdroppers in retrieving the hidden stream of a binary message without the knowledge of ERCS parameters that are pre-shared solely between the intended receiver and transmitter. …”
