On the Binary Symmetric Wiretap Channel

چکیده
In this paper, we investigate the binary symmetric wiretap channel. We show that the secrecy capacity can be achieved by using random linear codes. Furthermore, we explore the coset coding scheme constructed by linear codes. As a result, we give an upper bound on the total information loss, which sheds light on the design of the applicable coset codes for the secure transmission with limited information leakage.

On the application of LDPC codes to a novel wiretap channel inspired by quantum key distribution
With the advent of quantum key distribution (QKD) systems, perfect (i.e. information-theoretic) security can now be achieved for distribution of a cryptographic key. QKD systems and similar protocols use classical errorcorrecting codes for both error correction (for the honest parties to correct errors) and privacy amplification (to make an eavesdropper fully ignorant). From a coding perspectiv...
متن کاملCapacity-based random codes cannot achieve strong secrecy over symmetric wiretap channels
ABSTRACT In this paper, we investigate the limitations of capacity-based random code constructions for the wiretap channel, i.e., constructions that associate to each confidential message a subcode whose rate approaches the capacity of the eavesdropper’s channel. Generalizing a previous result for binary symmetric channels, we show that random capacity-based codes do not achieve the strong secr...

متن کاملHierarchical Polar Coding for Achieving Secrecy over Fading Wiretap Channels without any Instantaneous CSI
This paper presents a polar coding scheme to achieve secrecy in block fading binary symmetric wiretap channels without the knowledge of instantaneous channel state information (CSI) at the transmitter. For this model, a coding scheme that hierarchically utilizes polar codes is presented. In particular, on polarization of different binary symmetric channels over different fading blocks, each cha...
متن کاملOn the Binary Input Gaussian Wiretap Channel with/without Output Quantization
In this paper, we investigate the effect of output quantization on the secrecy capacity of the binary-input Gaussian wiretap channel. As a result, a closed-form expression with infinite summation terms of the secrecy capacity of the binary-input Gaussian wiretap channel is derived for the case when both the legitimate receiver and the eavesdropper have unquantized outputs. In particular, comput...
