Abstract

A basic model for key agreement with biometric or physical identifiers is extended to include measurements of a hidden source through a general broadcast channel (BC). An inner bound for strong secrecy, maximum key rate, and minimum privacy-leakage and database-storage rates is proposed. The inner bound is shown to be tight for physically-degraded and less-noisy BCs.
