Abstract

An implementation of coding and encryption for data in a low Earth orbit satellite channel is presented. A system of block coding and block cipher is designed to improve the noise performance and for data security, respectively. The Reed-Muller code is adopted as the coding scheme and an improved algorithm based on the Reed algorithm is used as decoding algorithm. A supercipher system combined with a block cipher and a stream cipher is put forward to compensate the shortage of total encryption keys brought about by the short block length of the block cipher. For a system with a bit rate as high as 10⁶ b/s, an EPROM array is used and one search process could implement both the coding and encryption
