Satellite Communication with Compression and Encryption

Using Autosophy methods to improve Satellite and Internet Communication

Application Proposal: 2006

Abstract: Satellite communication systems are now designed according to an outdated Shannon information theory where all data is transmitted in meaningless bit streams. Video bit rates, for example, are determined by the “hardware”, such as screen size, color resolution, and scanning rates. The video "content" is irrelevant so that totally random images require the same bit rates as blank images. An alternative system design, based on the newer Autosophy information theory, is now evolving, which transmits data "contend" or "meaning" in a universally compatible 64bit format. This allows mixing all multimedia transmissions in the Internet's packet stream. The new technologies are based on self-assembling data structures, which grow like data crystals or data trees in electronic memories without programming or supervision. The advantages for satellite communication may include: very high lossless image and video compression, unbreakable encryption, resistance to transmission errors, universally compatible data formats, immunity to the Internet's Quality of Service problems, and error-proof secure communication protocols. Legacy data transmission formats can be converted to the universal 64bit codes by simple software patches, or integrated chipsets, to be forwarded through any media - satellites, radio, Internet, cable - without needing to be reformatted. This may result in orders of magnitude improvements for all satellite and Internet communications.

Anticipated Benefits: Satellite data traffic may be increased up 100 fold without launching new satellites. Added benefits include: impenetrable security, universal multimedia data formats, and immunity to the Internet’s Quality of Service (QoS) problems.

Keywords: Satellite communication, Autosophy, Information theory, Self-learning data networks, Error-proof memory, Universal data formats, Mixed multimedia, Quality of Service (QoS), data compression, encryption.
