Enabling Private and Secure Information Transmission by IRS-aided Covert Communications

Project Outline

This project aims to deliver innovative and effective techniques to enable covert communications for private and secure information transmission. The demand for security and privacy in wireless communications is ever increasing, especially as Internet-of-Everything (IoE), widely regarded as the next technology revolution, is coming to reality to create a connected world for sharing critical information. This project will develop new designs for integrating the highly compatible intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) technique into the novel covert communication framework developed in the previous aims, and identify the optimal balance between signal intensification and signal cancellation, as a critical step towards achieving high-rate IRS-aided covert wireless communications.
