Covert Communication in Mobile Applications [PDF]

open access: yes2015 30th IEEE/ACM International Conference on Automated Software Engineering (ASE), 2015
This paper studies communication patterns in mobile applications. Our analysis shows that 63% of the external communication made by top-popular free Android applications from Google Play has no effect on the user-observable application functionality.

Secret key expansion from covert communication [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review A, 2017
Covert communication allows us to transmit messages in such a way that it is not possible to detect that the communication is occurring. This provides protection in situations where knowledge that people are talking to each other may be incriminating to ...

Covert Communication With Relay Selection [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Wireless Communications Letters, 2021
In this letter, we investigate covert communication in relay networks with relay selection. We consider the scenario that while forwarding the source’s message, the selected relay opportunistically transmits its own message to the destination covertly. We derive the probability of detection error (PDE) and the average covert rate (ACR) in a closed form,

Covert Quantum Communication [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2016
We extend covert communication to the quantum regime by showing that covert quantum communication is possible over optical channels with noise arising either from the environment or from the sender's lab. In particular, we show that sequences of qubits can be transmitted covertly by using both a single photon and a coherent state encoding. We study the

Covert Communication With Mismatched Decoders

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Information Theory, 2022
This paper considers the problem of covert communication with mismatched decoding, in which a sender wishes to reliably communicate with a receiver whose decoder is fixed and possibly sub-optimal, and simultaneously to ensure that the communication is covert with respect to a warden.

STAR-RIS Aided Covert Communications

open access: yesGLOBECOM 2023 - 2023 IEEE Global Communications Conference, 2023
This paper investigates the multi-antenna covert communications assisted by a simultaneously transmitting and reflecting reconfigurable intelligent surface (STAR-RIS). In particular, to shelter the existence of communications between transmitter and receiver from a warden, a friendly full-duplex receiver with two antennas is leveraged to make ...

Covert Transmission with Antenna Selection and Using an External Jammer [PDF]

open access: yesAUT Journal of Modeling and Simulation, 2020
This paper adopts the antenna selection technique to enhance the covert rate in a wireless communication network comprised of a source, a destination, an external jammer and an eavesdropper. In the covert communication, the level of transmit power is low

Covert Communication in Fading Channels under Channel Uncertainty [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A covert communication system under block fading channels is considered where users experience uncertainty about their channel knowledge. The transmitter seeks to hide the covert communication to a private user by exploiting a legitimate public ...

Hiding Messages in Secure Connection Transmissions with Full-Duplex Overt Receiver

open access: yesSensors, 2022
This paper considers hiding messages in overt transmissions with a full-duplex receiver, which emits artificial noise to secure its transmission connection while a transmitter opportunistically sends a covert message to a covert user.
