Modeling a Data Rate-Based Peripheral Security System in GNU Radio

Abstract

This chapter proposes a model for a peripheral security system based on data rate and specific signal format, which can also be used for authorization and recognition functions. This arrangement can be used for security management and monitoring of the inside or outside entry in a large peripheral area. Generally, conventional peripheral security systems detect every intruder and report authorization regardless of checking for authenticity. In the proposed method, identification of authorized persons depends upon exchange of certain fixed data rates between the transmitter and receiver modules. Exchange of data is initiated by the first layer of security provided by the IR sensor, and therefore this system can provide better protection from jamming devices or hacking. The proposed model of data rate-based peripheral security is tested and analyzed using an open-source software, GNU Radio.
