Secure Identification for Gaussian Channels

Abstract

New applications in modern communications are demanding robust and ultra-reliable low latency information exchange such as machine-to-machine and human-to-machine communications. For many of these applications, the identification approach of Ahlswede and Dueck is much more efficient than the classical transmission scheme proposed by Shannon. Previous studies concentrate mainly on identification over discrete channels. We focus on Gaussian channels for their known practical relevance. We deal with secure identification over Gaussian channels. In particular, we provide a suitable coding scheme for the Gaussian wiretap channel (GWC) and determine the corresponding secure identification capacity.
