Claims
- 1. Method of preventing extraneous detection of signal information from raster scan signals in a plurality of consecutive line signals intended to form an image or partial images, characterized in that a random signal sequence, correlated with the information-carrying raster scan signals but without information content, is generated and transmitted as protection for the raster scan signals, and wherein for consecutive image signals or partial image signals the relevant part of the random signal sequence is repeated while maintaining synchronization with the pixel clock frequency of the raster scan signal.
- 2. Method as claimed in claim 1, characterized in that a starting condition for the random signal sequence is determined by calculation of a chaos algorithm.
- 3. Method as claimed in one of claims 1 and 2, characterized in that the random signal sequence is selected to be of such a length that it must be truncated at image termination.
- 4. Method as claimed in one of claims 1 and 2, characterized in that the random signal sequence is executed such that it has stochastic properties during a period of the raster scan signal.
- 5. Method as claimed in one of claims 1 and 2, characterized in that for a repeated raster scan signal the random signal sequence is repeated a random number of times such as to give the random signal sequence a time mean value different from zero.
