We consider networks of noisy degraded wiretap channels in the presence of an eavesdropper. For the case where the eavesdropper can wiretap at most one channel at a time, we show that the secrecy capacity region, for a broad class of…
Secure communications is becoming increasingly relevant in the development of space technology. Well established cryptographic technology is already in place and is expected to continue to be so. On the other hand, information theoretical…
We consider a network coding problem where the destination wants to recover the sum of the signals (Gaussian random variables or random finite field elements) at all the source nodes, but the sum must be kept secret from an eavesdropper…
In this paper, we consider the secrecy capacity of a wiretap channel in the presence of causal state information and secure rate-limited feedback. In this scenario, the causal state information from the channel is available to both the…
We design and assess some practical low-density parity-check (LDPC) coded transmission schemes for the Gaussian broadcast channel with confidential messages (BCC). This channel model is different from the classical wiretap channel model as…
The coding problem for wiretap channels with causal channel state information available at the encoder and/or the decoder is studied under the strong secrecy criterion. This problem consists of two aspects: one is due to naive wiretap…
Strong secrecy capacity of compound wiretap channels is studied. The known lower bounds for the secrecy capacity of compound finite-state memoryless channels under discrete alphabets are extended to arbitrary uncertainty sets and continuous…

Uncertain wiretap channels are introduced. Their zero-error secrecy capacity is defined. If the sensor-estimator channel is perfect, it is also calculated. Further properties are discussed. The problem of estimating a dynamical system with…
Secure data compression in the presence of side information at both a legitimate receiver and an eavesdropper is explored. A noise-free, limited rate link between the source and the receiver, whose output can be perfectly observed by the…

In this work the arbitrarily varying wiretap channel AVWC is studied. We derive a lower bound on the random code secrecy capacity for the average error criterion and the strong secrecy criterion in the case of a best channel to the…
In this paper, we address the problem of Private Information Retrieval (PIR) over a public Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) channel. In such a setup, the server's responses are visible to other servers. Thus, a curious server can listen…
We consider a set of $n$ messages and a group of $k$ clients. Each client is privileged for receiving an arbitrary subset of the messages over a broadcast erasure channel, which generalizes scenario of a previous work. We propose a method…
Broadcasting $K$ independent messages to multiple users where each user demands all the messages and has a subset of the messages as side information is studied. Recently, Natarajan, Hong, and Viterbo proposed a novel broadcasting strategy…

The secrecy rate region of wiretap interference channels with a multi-antenna passive eavesdropper is studied under receiver energy harvesting constraints. To stay operational in the network, the legitimate receivers demand energy alongside…
Most practical communication links are bi-directional. In these models, since the source node also receives signals, its encoder has the option of computing its output based on the signals it received in the past. On the other hand, from a…
In this paper, we consider the use of artificial noise for secure communications. We propose the notion of practical secrecy as a new design criterion based on the behavior of the eavesdropper's error probability $P_E$, as the…
The secrecy of a communication system in which both the legitimate receiver and an eavesdropper are allowed some distortion is investigated. The secrecy metric considered is the exponent of the probability that the eavesdropper estimates…
