Physical Layer Security 2

Content

In this course we will learn more advanced topics in physical layer security, continuing the discussion from the lecture Physical Layer Security 1. More specifically, the sequential key distillation for secret key generation, strong secrecy, privacy issues tackled by physical layer schemes, and the more general setting where the eavesdropper is active.

  • Review of information theory and physical layer security
  • Sequential key distillation
  • Gaussian wiretap channel with multiple antennas: the optimal input distribution
  • Fading channels, ergodic and outage capacities, and artificial noise design
  • Strong secrecy
  • Privacy: differential privacy, stealth and covert communications, private information retrieval, wireless privacy
  • Finite block length analysis and wiretap code implementations
  • Active attacker
