3D Printed Physically Unclonable Wireless Systems (PUWS)

Tech ID: 21A003

Advantages:

  • 3D PUWS provides highly customizable system packages with multiple PUF types.
  • Incorporating multiple PUFs enhances system security and resistance against cloning.
  • 3D printing enables cost-effective manufacturing with randomized parameters and geometry, facilitating the inclusion of multiple PUFs.

Business Summary: 

This innovative technology 3D Printed Physically Unclonable Wireless Systems (3D PUWS) offers unprecedented flexibility and customization for wireless systems and Radio frequency (RF) engineers. It enables the integration of multiple physically unclonable functions (PUFs) at both the physical layer and the software/cryptography layer of the communication system. By utilizing 3D printing, we can introduce randomness into the manufacturing process at no additional cost, including multiple PUFs and highly controlled PUF parameters within a single system package. This innovative approach enhances system security, enables the generation of hardware-specific secret keys, and provides cost-effective manufacturing solutions. With the convenience and economic feasibility of 3D printing, 3D PUWS opens new possibilities for advanced wireless systems and device security.
