C07: Wireless Physical Layer Security

Thursday, August 21  09:40-11:40,  Room #20

Session Chairs: Alain Sibille, Michael Jensen

A number of fundamental results in the field of physical security are being found nowadays. The area is still in its infancy and many different topics are collected under this title, ranging form the computation of the secrecy capacity of wireless fading channels, to the design of cryptographic systems using the terminal noise as the encryption waveform, to directional modulation techniques that intentionally scramble the data constellation so as to make it undetectable off a certain privileged line of sight. The session will touch upon the many facets of these technique trying to give a unified view of the field.
