A digital instruction release control method based on physical disturbance features and in-device fingerprints, chip and system

This invention discloses a digital instruction release control method, chip, and system based on physical disturbance characteristics and device-intrinsic fingerprints. The method acquires real-time physical state information related to the execution object, execution environment, or execution node corresponding to the digital instruction to be verified; acquires the device-intrinsic fingerprint parameters or their derived response values ​​of the execution node; and acquires the digital feature information of the digital instruction to be verified. Based on the real-time physical state information, the device-intrinsic fingerprint parameters or their derived response values, and the digital feature information, a judgment value is generated to characterize whether the digital instruction meets preset release conditions. When the judgment value indicates that the digital instruction does not meet the preset release conditions, a blocking control signal is output to prevent the digital instruction from being executed, propagated, or written to the target link. In some embodiments, the real-time physical state information can be represented by a spatial residual component D1 and a temporal variation component D2, and the device-intrinsic fingerprint parameters can be represented by a static fingerprint, a digest value, or a challenge-response value. This invention can bind the execution qualification of digital instructions to the real-time physical state of the execution node and the inherent non-cloning characteristics of the device, thereby upgrading the verification conditions of digital instructions from logically executable to physically passable. It is applicable to scenarios such as warehouse settlement, industrial control, content authenticity verification, scientific instruments, unmanned equipment and energy scheduling.
