Delay-constrained covert communications with a full-duplex receiver

F Shu, T Xu, J Hu, S Yan - IEEE Wireless Communications …, 2019 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
In this letter, we consider delay-constrained covert communications with the aid of a full-
duplex (FD) receiver. Without delay constraints, it has been shown that the transmit power of …

Multi-antenna jamming in covert communication

O Shmuel, A Cohen, O Gurewitz - IEEE Transactions on …, 2021 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Covert communication conceals transmission of messages between Alice and Bob from an
adversary, Willie, who tries to determine if a transmission took place or not. While covert …

Covert wireless communications under quasi-static fading with channel uncertainty

K Shahzad, X Zhou - IEEE Transactions on Information …, 2020 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Covert communications enable a transmitter to send information reliably in the presence of
an adversary, who looks to detect whether the transmission took place or not. We consider …

Achieving covert wireless communications using a full-duplex receiver

K Shahzad, X Zhou, S Yan, J Hu… - IEEE Transactions on …, 2018 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Covert communications hide the transmission of a message from a watchful adversary while
ensuring a certain decoding performance at the receiver. In this paper, a wireless …
