Wireless Physical Layer Security
Security in wireless networks has traditionally been considered to be an issue to be addressed separately from the physical radio transmission aspects of wireless systems. However, with the emergence of new networking architectures that are not amenable to traditional methods of secure communication such as data encryption, there has been an increase in interest in the potential of the physical...
متن کاملCovert Communications Versus Physical Layer Security
This letter studies and compares the physical-layer security approach and the covert communication approach for a wiretap channel with a transmitter, an intended receiver and an eavesdropper. In order to make the comparison, we investigate the power allocation problems for maximizing the secrecy/covert rate subject to the transmit power constraint. Simulation results illustrate that if the eave...
متن کاملPhysical Layer Security for Multiuser MIMO Communications
Wireless multi-user MIMO communications are used more and more often to exchange sensitive data. Because of the broadcast nature of the physical medium, unauthorized receivers located within the transmission range can observe the signals sent by the transmitter to a legitimate receiver and eavesdrop them. Therefore, security has become an extremely important issue to deal with. Multiuser MIMO c...
متن کاملDetection of man-in-the-middle attacks using physical layer wireless security techniques
In a wireless network environment, all the users are able to access the wireless channel. Thus, if malicious users exploit this feature by mimicking the characteristics of a normal user or even the central wireless access point (AP), they can intercept almost all the information through the network. This scenario is referred as a Man-in-the-middle (MITM) attack. In the MITM attack, the attacker...
متن کاملPhysical Layer Security in Wireless Communication Networks
Physical layer (PHY) security has become an emerging area of research recently. Wireless networks use unguided medium as communication channels, so gathering wireless data transmission is easier when compared to traditional cable systems. With the rise of new security challenges, many different solutions have been offered and are being developed. However, maintaining security in wireless networ...
