| Counsel: | Firm: Cooley LLP |
| 1st Invent: | Torsten Schultze (Naples, FL) |
| Inventors: | Genders: F=0, M=2 |
| Abstract: 2000 char max | A system and method for data communication using amplitude-encoded sinusoids. The method includes encoding the input digital data using a plurality of symbol waveforms where each of the plurality of symbol waveforms occupies a period of a composite encoded waveform and represents at least one bit of the input digital data. A first symbol waveform of the plurality of symbol waveforms is defined by a sinusoid of a first amplitude and a second symbol waveform is defined by a sinusoid of a second amplitude different from the first amplitude. The method includes generating an encoded analog waveform from a representation of the composite encoded waveform. |

| 1st Invent: | Brett Shockley (Bonita Springs, FL) |
| Inventors: | Genders: F=0, M=6 |
| Abstract: 2000 char max | The techniques herein are directed generally to a ''zero-knowledge'' data management network. Users are able to share verifiable proof of data and/or identity information, and businesses are able to request, consume, and act on the dataall without a data storage server or those businesses ever seeing or having access to the raw sensitive information (where server-stored data is viewable only by the intended recipients, which may even be selected after storage). In one embodiment, source data is encrypted with a source encryption key (e.g., source public key), with a rekeying key being an encrypting combination of a source decryption key (e.g., source private key) and a recipient''s public key. Without being able to decrypt the data, the storage server can use the rekeying key to re-encrypt the source data with the recipient''s public key, to then be decrypted only by the corresponding recipient using its private key, accordingly. |
