  • Using PNR as a New Approach to Enhancing RFID Channel Security Via Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS)
    Published March 2010

    Salman Altaf and Mumtaz A. Kamala, of the University of Bradford School of Computing, Information and Media, and Qudoos Yousuf, of Innovation North Leedsmet University, outline how retailers, manufacturers, hospitals, federal agencies and other organizations can use RFID to improve functionality and product quality, and maintain a good checks-and-balances system, without experiencing data security and privacy vulnerabilities. The authors discuss a proposed technique for preventing data leakage and providing protection against eavesdropping and interference, by spreading spectrum over the wideband, utilizing a suitable pseudorandom (PNR) code.
