An achievable secrecy capacity region for multiple-access wiretap channel with common message and side information

Abstract

In this paper, we study the discrete memory Multiple Access Wiretap Channel (DM-MAWC) with one common message and non-causal side information. In this channel, two transmitters send a common message to the receivers, meanwhile they both transmit an individual confidential message, which must be kept secret from the second receiver (viewed as a wiretapper) to the first receiver. As the side information is non-causally available at the transmitters, we derive the achievable perfect secrecy capacity region for the MAWC with one common message and non-casual side information available at the transmitters by using Cover's superposition coding and Gelfand-Pinsker random binning coding schemes. The achievable secrecy capacity region of this paper subsumes the region of multiple access wiretap channel with or without common message and without side information as its special cases.

Multiple Access Channel with Common Message and Secrecy constraint

Hassan ZivariFard, Bahareh Akhbari, Mahmoud Ahmadian‐Attari +1 more

In this paper, we study the problem of secret communication over a multiple-access channel with a common message. Here, we assume that two transmitters have confidential messages, which must be kept secret from the wiretapper (the second receiver), and both of them have access to a common message which can be decoded by the two receivers. We call this setting as Multiple-Access Wiretap Channel with Common message (MAWC-CM). For this setting, we derive general inner and outer bounds on the secrecy capacity region for the discrete memoryless case and show that these bounds meet each other for a special case called the switch channel. As well, for a Gaussian version of MAWC-CM, we derive inner and outer bounds on the secrecy capacity region. Providing numerical results for the Gaussian case, we illustrate the comparison between the derived achievable rate region and the outer bound for the considered model and the capacity region of compound multiple access channel.

In this paper, we study the problem of secret communication over a Multiple Access Wire-tap Channel with Common Message. Here, we assume that two transmitters have confidential messages which must be kept secret from the eavesdropper (the second receiver), and both of them have access to a common message which can be decoded by two receivers. For this setting, we derive general inner and outer bounds on the secrecy capacity region for the discrete memoryless case as well as for Gaussian one. Providing numerical examples for the Gaussian case, we illustrate the comparison between derived achievable rate regions and outer bounds for our considered model and the capacity region of compound multiple access channel.

An Achievable Region for the Multiple Access Wiretap Channels with Confidential and Open Messages

Hao Xu, Giuseppe Caire, Cunhua Pan

This paper investigates the capacity region of a discrete memoryless (DM) multiple access wiretap (MAC-WT) channel where, besides confidential messages, the users have also open messages to transmit. All these messages are intended for the legitimate receiver but only the confidential messages need to be protected from the eavesdropper. By using random coding, we find an achievable secrecy rate region, within which perfect secrecy can be realized, i.e., all users can communicate with the legitimate receiver with arbitrarily small probability of error, while the confidential information leaked to the eavesdropper tends to zero.

On Strong Secrecy for Multiple Access Channels With States and Causal CSI

Yiqi Chen, Tobias J. Oechtering, Mikael Skoglund +1 more

Strong secrecy communication over a discrete memoryless state-dependent multiple access channel (SD-MAC) with an external eavesdropper is investigated. The channel is governed by discrete memoryless and i.i.d. channel states, and the channel state information (CSI) is revealed to the encoders in a causal manner. The main results of this paper are inner and outer bounds of the capacity region, for which we investigate coding schemes incorporating wiretap coding and secret key agreements between the sender and the legitimate receiver. Two kinds of block Markov coding schemes are proposed. The first is a new coding scheme that uses backward decoding and the Wyner-Ziv coding, and the secret key is constructed from a lossy description of the CSI. The other is an extended version of an existing coding scheme for point-to-point wiretap channels with causal CSI. A numerical example shows that the achievable region given by the first coding scheme can be strictly larger than the second one. However, these two schemes do not outperform each other in general, and there exist some numerical examples in which each coding scheme achieves some rate pairs that cannot be achieved by another scheme. Our established inner bound reduces to some best-known results in the literature as special cases. We further investigate some capacity-achieving cases for state-dependent multiple access wiretap channels (SD-MAWCs) with degraded message sets. It turns out that the two coding schemes are both optimal in these cases.
