| Abstract | Encryption schemes for network security usually require a key distribution center to share or distribute the secret keys, which is difficult to deploy in wireless networks without fixed infrastructure. A novel key generation scheme based on the physical layer can generate a shared key between a pair of correlated parties by sharing random sources. The existing physical layer key generation scheme is based on the half-duplex mode with time division duplex (TDD) mode, which makes it impossible for the correlated communication parties to detect the channel simultaneously in order to improve the channel coherence. In this paper, we propose a full-duplex physical layer key generation scheme, which allows each legal communication nodes to transmit and receive signals at the same time, in order to reduce channel probing time and increase channel coherence performance. The simulation experiments show that the proposed scheme can much outperform some typical existing schemes in terms of the key performance evaluation indicators, key disagreement rate, key generation rate, entropy of the scheme improved, and the randomness of generated keys passed the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) test. |
