In this paper, we study a model of communication under adversarial noise. In this model, the adversary makes online decisions on whether to corrupt a transmitted bit based on only the value of that bit. Like the usual binary symmetric…

We consider a broadcast communication system over parallel sub-channels where the transmitter sends three messages: a common message to two users, and two confidential messages to each user which need to be kept secret from the other user.…

In this paper, we derive information-theoretic performance limits for secure and reliable communications over the general two-user discrete memoryless broadcast channel with side-information at the transmitter. The sender wishes to…

Wyner's wiretap channel is extended to parallel broadcast channels and fading channels with multiple receivers. In the first part of the paper, we consider the setup of parallel broadcast channels with one sender, multiple intended…

We study a multi-antenna broadcast channel with two legitimate receivers and an external eavesdropper. We assume that the channel matrix of the eavesdropper is unknown to the legitimate terminals but satisfies a maximum rank constraint. As…

Covert communication is necessary when revealing the mere existence of a message leaks sensitive information to an attacker. Consider a network link where an authorized transmitter Jack sends packets to an authorized receiver Steve, and the…

Detection methods are available for several known covert channels. However, a type of covert channel that received little attention within the last decade is the "message ordering" channel. Such a covert channel changes the order of PDUs…

In this paper, we derive information-theoretic performance limits for three classes of two-user state-dependent discrete memoryless broadcast channels, with noncausal side-information at the encoder. The first class of channels comprises a…

This paper studies the problem of secure communication over broadcast channels under the individual secrecy constraints. That is, the transmitter wants to send two independent messages to two legitimate receivers in the presence of an…

We study the multi-receiver wiretap channel with public and confidential messages. In this channel, there is a transmitter that wishes to communicate with two legitimate users in the presence of an external eavesdropper. The transmitter…

This paper considers the problem of covert communication with mismatched decoding, in which a sender wishes to reliably communicate with a receiver whose decoder is fixed and possibly sub-optimal, and simultaneously to ensure that the…

This paper investigates the capacity regions of two-receiver broadcast channels where each receiver (i) has both common and private-message requests, and (ii) knows part of the private message requested by the other receiver as side…

In this paper, we introduce the notion of Plausible Deniability in an information theoretic framework. We consider a scenario where an entity that eavesdrops through a broadcast channel summons one of the parties in a communication protocol…

In this paper, we study the problem of secret communication over a Compound Multiple Access Channel (MAC). In this channel, we assume that one of the transmitted messages is confidential that is only decoded by its corresponding receiver…

Several security models of multiple-access channel (MAC) are investigated. First, we study the degraded MAC with confidential messages, where two users transmit their confidential messages (no common message) to a destination, and each user…

A multiple-access channel is considered in which messages from one encoder are confidential. Confidential messages are to be transmitted with perfect secrecy, as measured by equivocation at the other encoder. The upper bounds and the…

Covert communications hide the transmission of a message from a watchful adversary while ensuring a certain decoding performance at the receiver. In this work, a wireless communication system under fading channels is considered where…
