This project aims to develop novel physical-layer security techniques to safeguard the ‘Internet of things’ (IoT). The IoT will involve billions of resource-constrained devices connected to the environment and managed though a range of wireless connections. Standard wireless security solutions are unsuitable for these devices due to the high cost of communication and computation. The project aims to develop a novel wireless security approach based on the physical-layer properties of wireless channels, to secure communications for the IoT. The fundamental advances of the first two years will be followed by a software-defined radio demonstration of the new technology. Expected project outcomes would provide innovative solutions to safeguard future commercial deployment of the IoT.Read moreRead less
