In order to communicate a message over a noisy channel, a sender (Alice) uses an error-correcting code to encode her message $x$ into a codeword. The receiver (Bob) decodes it correctly whenever there is at most a small constant fraction of…
We establish an upper bound on the rate of codes for a wiretap channel with public feedback for a fixed probability of error and secrecy parameter. As a corollary, we obtain a strong converse for the capacity of a degraded wiretap channel…
This paper examines the properties of the lower and upper bounds established by Maurer, Ahlswede and Csiszar (MAC) for secret-key capacity in the case of channel probing over single-input and single-output (SISO) channels. Inspired by the…
In this article, we investigate strategic information transmission over a noisy channel. This problem has been widely investigated in Economics, when the communication channel is perfect. Unlike in Information Theory, both encoder and…
Key agreement is a fundamental cryptographic primitive. It has been proved that key agreement protocols with security against computationally unbounded adversaries cannot exist in a setting where Alice and Bob do not have dependent…
In this paper, we use a linear programming (LP) optimization approach to evaluate the equivocation for a wiretap channel where the main channel is noiseless, and the wiretap channel is a binary symmetric channel (BSC). Using this technique,…
In this paper, we investigate the problem of secure broadcasting over block-fading channels with limited channel knowledge at the transmitter. More particularly, we analyze the effect of having imperfect channel state information (CSI) via…
In this work, a class of information theoretic secrecy problems is addressed where the eavesdropper channel states are completely unknown to the legitimate parties. In particular, MIMO wiretap channel models are considered where the channel…
The model of wiretap channel (WTC) is important as it constitutes the essence of physical layer security (PLS). Wiretap channel with noiseless feedback (WTC-NF) is especially interesting as it shows what can be done when a private feedback…
Polar codes have been proven to be capacity achieving for any binary-input discrete memoryless channel, while at the same time they can reassure secure and reliable transmission over the single-input single-output wireless channel. However,…
Consider a channel where authorized transmitter Jack sends packets to authorized receiver Steve according to a Poisson process with rate $\lambda$ packets per second for a time period $T$. Suppose that covert transmitter Alice wishes to…
The capacity of a time-varying block-memoryless channel in which the transmitter and the receiver have access to (possibly different) noisy causal channel side information (CSI) is obtained. It is shown that the capacity formula obtained in…
We furnish a procedure based on universal hash families (UHFs) that can convert an error correcting coding scheme (ECC) of rate $R$ into a semantically secure wiretap coding scheme of rate $R - \xi$ where $\xi$ is a parameter derived from…
In this work, we study two models of arbitrarily varying channels, when causal side information is available at the encoder in a causal manner. First, we study the arbitrarily varying channel (AVC) with input and state constraints, when the…
We consider the problem of polar coding for secure communications over the two-way wiretap channel, where two legitimate users communicate with each other simultaneously while a passive eavesdropper overhears a combination of their…
It is a common belief that quantum key distribution systems are the one and only information-theoretically secure physical layer security protocol that enables secure data transmission without a need for the legitimate parties to have any…
In this paper, we consider a scenario where a source node wishes to broadcast two confidential messages for two respective receivers, while a wire-tapper also receives the transmitted signal. This model is motivated by wireless…
In this paper, new inner and outer bounds on the achievable compression-equivocation rate region for generalized secure data compression with side information are given that do not match in general. In this setup, two senders, Alice and…
We consider the communication problem over binary causal adversarial erasure channels. Such a channel maps $n$ input bits to $n$ output symbols in $\{0,1,\wedge\}$, where $\wedge$ denotes erasure. The channel is causal if, for every $i$,…
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…
