Seems like it'd still be susceptible to playback attacks with a slight random delay.

- blattimwind 7y agoYes within d/c. So a priori you already need to be rather very close to the position of the object you want to fake appearing. At that point you might just as well put an object there.
- paulmd 7y agoI don't know what d/c means but if it's data connection then the fact that light (and other EM energy like radio waves) travel faster in air would probably be a problem for using that as a jamming approach
- blattimwind 7y agodistance divided by speed of light = time window for a successful replay attack
- paulmd 7y agoWhile I actually find this discussion interesting (serious), I just want to make the note that this is a military system and thought was undoubtedly applied to making it resistant to at least trivial jamming approaches. Hence the PRNG based timing for the transmission. It would be more compelling if you outlined some ways that that approach might be stymied and how the soviets might have counteracted that.
