Hiding wireless transmissions into interference by covert communication technologies

Project Outline

This project will develop an innovative framework to resolve the critical and challenging problem of optimally controlling and exploiting random interference to achieve communication covertness, so as to enable large-scale covert communications. Meanwhile, optimal strategies of detecting covert communications will also be developed for establishing the fundamental performance limits on the achievable communication covertness. Specifically, this project will design a novel framework to tackle the optimal masking strategy via exploiting random interference to achieve covert communications, develop optimal detectors against such covert communications and establish technological foundations of the resulting communication covertness.
