contents Adversarial feature extraction and blocking jamming threaten tactical CPM links. This paper presents a unitary spreading-based Transmission Security (TRANSEC) enhancement to obscure physical-layer signatures and improve anti-jamming (AJ) resilience. The enhancement can be used to augment existing techniques. The enhancement preserves the constant-envelope (0 dB PAPR) nature of CPM, ensuring compatibility with high-efficiency tactical amplifiers. Analysis of symbol distributions, spectra, and cyclostationary features demonstrates that the technique masks inherent signatures, preventing modulation classification. We leverage convex optimization to recover symbols under blocking jamming, reducing uncoded BER from 6.25% to 0.04%. Finally, we characterize the engineering trade-offs between security, bandwidth, and BER.
