A Coding Scheme for Colored Gaussian Wiretap Channels with Feedback

Abstract

In this paper, the finite-order autoregressive moving average (ARMA) Gaussian wiretap channel with noiseless causal feedback is considered, in which an eavesdropper receives noisy observations of the signals in both forward and feedback channels. It is shown that the generalized Schalkwijk-Kailath scheme, a capacity-achieving coding scheme for the feedback Gaussian channel, achieves the same maximum rate for the same channel with the presence of an eavesdropper. Therefore, the secrecy capacity is equal to the feedback capacity without the presence of an eavesdropper for the feedback channel. Furthermore, the results are extended to the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel with quantized feedback. It is shown that the proposed coding scheme achieves a positive secrecy rate. As the amplitude of the quantization noise decreases to zero, the secrecy rate converges to the capacity of the AWGN channel.

Secrecy Capacity of Colored Gaussian Noise Channels with Feedback

In this paper, the k-th order autoregressive moving average (ARMA(k)) Gaussian wiretap channel with noiseless causal feedback is considered, in which an eavesdropper receives noisy observations of the signals in both forward and feedback channels. It is shown that a variant of the generalized Schalkwijk-Kailath scheme, a capacity-achieving coding scheme for the feedback Gaussian channel, achieves the same maximum rate for the same channel with the presence of an eavesdropper. Therefore, the secrecy capacity is equal to the feedback capacity without the presence of an eavesdropper for the feedback channel. Furthermore, the results are extended to the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel with quantized feedback. It is shown that the proposed coding scheme achieves a positive secrecy rate. As the amplitude of the quantization noise decreases to zero, the secrecy rate converges to the capacity of the AWGN channel.

Secrecy capacity of the first-order autoregressive moving average Gaussian channel with feedback

Chong Li, Yingbin Liang

In this paper, we consider the first-order autoregressive moving average Gaussian channel with perfect causal feedback where an eavesdropper receives noisy observations of the channel inputs and outputs. We show that the secrecy capacity is equal to the feedback capacity without the presence of eavesdropper. Furthermore, we explicitly construct the secrecy capacity-achieving feedback code, which is deterministic and simple to implement.

Secure Joint Source-Channel Coding for the AWGN Channel with Feedback: A Finite Blocklength Analysis

Sheng Su, Yuhan Yang, Chao Qi +3 more

In the literature, it has been shown that the secrecy capacity of the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) wiretap channel with noise-free feedback equals the capacity of the same model without secrecy constraint, and the classical Schalkwijk-Kailath (SK) scheme achieves the secrecy capacity. In this paper, we show that in finite blocklength regime, the SK scheme is not optimal, and propose a modified SK scheme which may perform better than the classical one. Besides this, this paper establishes a finite blocklength converse for the AWGN wiretap channel with feedback, which can also be viewed as a converse for the same model without secrecy constraint. To the best of the authors' knowledge, this is the first paper to address such a problem, and the results of this paper are further explained via numerical examples.

Finite Blocklength Approach and Its Security Analysis for the Dirty-Tape Channel With Noiseless/Noisy Feedback

Dengfeng Xia, Guangfen Xie, Chuanchuan Yang +1 more

The classical Schalkwijk-Kailath (SK) scheme, which achieves the capacity of the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel with noiseless feedback, is also shown to be an excellent secure finite blocklength (FBL) coding scheme for the AWGN wiretap channel with noiseless feedback. In this paper, the dirty tape channel (AWGN channel with Gaussian state interference causally known by the transmitter) with noiseless/noisy feedback is investigated. First, SK-type feedback schemes are proposed for this model by introducing a lattice-based strategy into the classical SK scheme, and it is shown that this strategy helps to eliminate the impact of the state interference and the feedback channel noise on the performance of the SK scheme. Then, we analyze the security performance of the proposed schemes, in particular, for the dirty tape channel with noisy feedback and eavesdropper, we give a lower bound on the normalized eavesdropper’s equivocation by establishing a novel inequality about the differential entropy of the Gaussian modulo-lattice function. Finally, performances of our proposed schemes are further explained by numerical examples.

Feedback Capacity of Gaussian Multiple-Access Wiretap Channel with Degraded Message Sets

Bin Dai, Chong Li, Yingbin Liang +2 more

The Schalkwijk-Kailath (SK) feedback scheme is a capacity-achieving coding scheme for the point-to-point white Gaussian channel with feedback. Recently, it has been shown that the SK scheme, which is not designed with consideration of secrecy, already achieves perfect weak secrecy by itself, i.e., the secrecy capacity of the Gaussian wiretap channel with feedback equals the capacity of the same model without secrecy constraint. In this paper, we propose a capacity-achieving SK type feedback scheme for the two-user Gaussian multiple-access channel with degraded message sets (GMAC-DMS). Similarly to the inherent secrecy nature of the classical SK scheme, we show that the proposed scheme is also secure by itself, which indicates that the feedback secrecy capacity of the two-user Gaussian multiple-access wiretap channel with degraded message sets (GMAC-WT-DMS) equals the capacity of the same model without secrecy constraint.
