Pulse Position Modulation for Secure Optical Communication

Scientists at the University of Massachusetts have demonstrated a pulse‑position‑modulation optical link that encodes data in sparse laser pulses amid unrelated photons, making eavesdropping appear as random noise and offering theoretically unbreakable encryption, though it requires a pre‑shared decoding key.
