The first controller 1 stores a secret key set by a user. The first controller 1 sends out a digital control signal, which is encrypted by the encrypting unit 2 and then sent to the multi-band transmitter 3.
The encrypting unit 2 encrypts the signal sent by the first controller 1. The encrypting unit 2 may be implemented by any known encrypting device. For example, it may be implemented by an integrated microelectronic encrypting chip or comprise more than one separate devices.
The multi-band transmitter 3 may comprise any known transmitters. For example, the multi-band transmitter may comprise a plurality of transmitters of two or more different types selected from a group consisting of a microwave transmitter, a light wave transmitter, an X-ray transmitter, a radio frequency transmitter, or a terahertz transmitter. Alternatively, the multi-band transmitter may comprise a plurality of transmitters of a same type, the plurality of transmitters each transmitting a different frequency. One or more transmitters are selected from the plurality of transmitters to transmit the encrypted signal under control of the secret key.

As shown in
The multi-band channel encrypting switch device and its encryption method enhances encryption performance with respect to conventional security system and switch device.
The encrypted signal can be transmitted in parallel by different communication methods, such as visible light communication, infrared light communication, radio frequency signal, or terahertz signal. A malicious user may have to use the same transmitters to transmit a crack signal.
The switch signal is issued only when the secret keys are matched at the transmission part and the receiving part and meanwhile the data are matched at the transmission part and the receiving part.
The encrypted data is transmitted via different channels so that possibility of signal interception during the transmission is reduced, thereby improving security significantly.
