A communication setup is considered where a transmitter wishes to convey a message to a receiver and simultaneously estimates the state of that receiver through a common waveform. The state is estimated at the transmitter by means of…
The question of robust direct communication in vehicular networks is discussed. In most state-of-the-art approaches, there is no central entity controlling channel access, so there may be arbitrary interference from other parties. Thus, a…
It is known that a message can be transmitted safely against any wiretapper via a noisy channel without a secret key if the coding rate is less than the so-called secrecy capacity $C_S$, which is usually smaller than the channel capacity…
