A secret key agreement scheme with multi-level quantization and parity check using fluctuation of radio channel property

Shimpei Yasukawa, Hisato Iwai, Hideichi Sasaoka

As a countermeasure for eavesdroppers in wireless communication, a secret key agreement scheme using a variable directional antenna named ESPAR antenna was developed. In this paper, we describe an improved key generation method using multi-level quantization and parity check in the secret key agreement scheme. It enhances key agreement probability in legitimate parties efficiently without reducing the security. There was a trade-off between the key agreement probability and the security. Simulation result shows that the proposed method realizes higher security than the conventional one in the key agreement system using ESPAR antenna.

Wireless secret key generation exploiting reactance-domain scalar response of multipath fading channels

智之 青野, Kenichi Higuchi, Takashi Ohira +2 more

We describe a secure communication scheme that uses the random fluctuation of the natural environment of communication channels. Only the transmitter and the receiver share the communication channel characteristics. From reciprocity between a transmitter and a receiver, it is possible for them to share one-time information of their fluctuating channel. This can provide a secret key agreement scheme without key management and key distribution processes. In this paper, we propose a new secret key generation and agreement scheme that uses the fluctuation of channel characteristics with an electronically steerable parasitic array radiator (ESPAR) antenna. This antenna, which has been proposed and prototyped, is a smart antenna designed for consumers. Using the beam-forming technique of the ESPAR antenna, we can increase the fluctuation of the channel characteristics. From experimental results, we conclude that the proposed scheme has the ability to generate secret keys from the received signal strength indicator (RSSI) profile with sufficient independence.

Impact of direct-path wave on Imac in secret key agreement system using ESPAR antennas

Yoshida Tadafumi, Takafumi Saito, Fujiki Katsuhiro +3 more

Current cryptography may be potentially decrypted by an extremely high performance computer. More secure key sharing schemes are expected. One possible solution is secret key agreement system which makes use of Electrically Steerable Parasitic Array Radiator (ESPAR) antenna. In this scheme ideally, by using wave propagation characteristics, eavesdropper cannot guess secret key from regular terminals. Actually however, eavesdropper has chances to guess the key if he is located on the line of direct-path wave between regular terminals. In our study, we evaluate the impact of direct-path wave on Information mutual anti-tapping condition (Imac) under a noisy channel.
