Cryptographic synchronization which synchronizes internal state of cryptographic algorithm and ciphertext stream between an encryptor and a decryptor affects the quality of secure communication. If there happens a synchronization loss between a transmitter and a receiver in a secure communication, the output of the receiver is unintelligible until resynchronization is made. Especially, in the secure communication on a wireless channel with high BER, synchronization performance can dominate its quality. In this paper, we proposed a novel and noise robust synchronization signal generation method as well as its detection algorithm. We generated a synchronization signal in the form of a masking structure based on the maximal length sequence, and developed a detection algorithm using a correlation property of the maximal length sequence. Experimental results have demonstrated that the proposed synchronization signal outperforms the conventional concatenated type synchronization signal in a noisy environment.

In synchronous secure communications, a synchronization signal is transmitted over the same channel where ciphertext is transmitted for cryptographic synchronization between an encryptor and a decryptor, so, it causes data rate lowering and transmission delay for plain communication. Especially, in poor environments such as wireless channels and so on, since secure communications require a periodic resynchronization protocol, synchronization signal transmission method can dominate its quality. In this paper, we proposed a new synchronization signal transmission method without additional bandwidth as well as resynchronization protocol based on it. We embeded a synchronization signal as a watermark in a transmission image and restored it from a detected watermark in the decryptor. Experimental results of image have demonstrated that the proposed synchronization signal transmission method using watermarking is efficient in transmission rate and can support reliable synchronization detection.

The synchronous stream cipher which require absoulte clock synchronization has the problem of synchronization loss by cycle slip. Synchronization loss makes the state which sender and receiver can't communicate with each other and it may break the receiving system. To lessen the risk, we usually use a continuous resynchronization method which achieve resynchronization at fixed timesteps by inserting synchronization pattern and session key. While we can get resynchronization effectively by continuous resynchroniation, there are some problems. In this paper, we proposed an adaptive resynchronization algorithm for cipher system using HDLC protocol. It is able to solve the problem of the continuous resynchronization. The proposed adaptive algorithm make resynchronization only in the case that the resynchronization is occurred by analyzing the address field of HDLC. It measures the receiving rate of theaddress field in the decision duration. Because it make resynchronization only when the receiving rate is greateer than the threshold value, it is able to solve the problems of continuous resynchronization method. When the proposed adaptive algorithm is applied to the synchronous stream cipher system in packet netork, it has addvance the result in R_e and D_e.

In this paper, a synchronized stream cryptosystem for secure communication in radio channel is designed and its security level is analyzed. The main parts of the proposed cryptosystem consist of synchronization pattern generator, session key generator, and key stream generator. The system performance is evaluated by analyzing the security level depending on the randomness, period, linear complexity, and correlation immunity. Experimental results with image data signal in the 10-1 and 10-2 channel error environment demonstrate the proper operation of the implemented crypto system.

동기식 스트림 암호통신 방식을 사용하는 암호통신에서는 암/복호화 과정 수행시 암호통신 과정에서 발생하는 사이클슬립으로 인해 키수열의 동기이탈 현상이 발생되고 이로 인해 오복호된 데이타를 얻게된다. 이러한 위험성을 감소하기 위한 방안으로 현재까지 암호문에 동기신호와 세션키를 주기적으로 삽입하여 동기를 이루는 주기적인 동기암호 통신방식을 사용하여 왔다. 본 논문에서는 CDMA(Cellular Division Multiple Access) 이동망에서 데이타서비스를 제공할 때 사용되는 점대점 프로토콜의 주소영역의 특성을 이용하여 단위 측정시간 동안 측정된 주소비트 정보와 플래그 패턴의 수신률을 이용하여 문턱 값보다 작은경우 동기신호와 세션키를 전송하는 비주기적인 동기방식을 사용하므로써 종래의 주기적인 동기방식으로 인한 전송효율성 저하와 주기적인 상이한 세션키 발생 및 다음 주기까지의 동기이탈 상태의 지속으로 인한 오류확산 등의 단점을 해결하였다. 제안된 알고리즘을 링크계층의 점대점 프로토콜(Point to Point Protocol)을 사용하는 CDMA 이동망에서 동기식 스트림 암호 통신방식에 적용시 동기이탈율 10-7의 환경에서 주기가 1sec인 주기적인 동기방식에서 요구되는 6.45x107비트에 비해 3.84x105비트가 소요됨으로써 전송율측면에서의 성능향상과 오복호율과 오복호 데이타 비트측면에서 성능향상을 얻었다. Abstract In the cipher system using the synchronous stream cipher system, encryption / decryption cause the synchronization loss (of key arrangement) by cycle slip, then it makes incorrect decrypted data. To lessen the risk, we have used a periodic synchronous cipher system which achieve synchronization at fixed timesteps by inserting synchronization signal and session key. In this paper, we solved the problem(fault) like the transfer efficiency drops by a periodic synchronous method, the periodic generations of different session key, and the incorrectness increases by continuing synchronization loss in next time step. They are achieved by the transfer of a non-periodic synchronous signal which carries synchronous signal and session key when it is less than the threshold value, analyzing the address field of point-to-point protocol, using the receiving rate of address bits information and flag patterns in the decision duration, in providing data services by CDMA mobile network. When the proposed algorithm is applied to the synchronous stream cipher system using point-to-point protocol, which is used data link level in CDMA mobile network, it has advanced the result in Rerror and Derror and in transmission rate, by the use of 3.84$\times$105bits, not 6.45$\times$107bits required in periodic synchronous method, having lsec time step, in slip rate 10-7.

The modern battlefield is being developed as a network-centric warfare where priority is given to rapid status grasp and power deployment through scientification and modernization. Therefore, tactical data link has been continuously improving the network speed, and recently, security technology is required for wireless communication with the UAV and various devices for reconnaissance. In addition, the future information warfare will utilize advanced IT technology positively. Efforts are needed to integrate various systems and networks. However, these efforts are meaningful only when they can assume sufficient security in a newly changing information and communication environment. In this paper, we propose a new cryptographic synchronization for link encryption suitable for tactical data links. The proposed cryptographic synchronization is useful for T4 UAV link encryption, and it is also adaptable for lower BER, then we analyze the performances analysis of that.
