TL;DR: A practical secure communication protocol is developed, which uses a four-step procedure to ensure wireless information-theoretic security and is shown that the protocol is effective in secure key renewal-even in the presence of imperfect channel state information.

TL;DR: The paper explores various physical layer research challenges in MIMO-OFDM system design, including physical channel measurements and modeling, analog beam forming techniques using adaptive antenna arrays, and signal processing algorithms used to perform time and frequency synchronization, channel estimation, and channel tracking in M IMO- OFDM systems.

TL;DR: This paper describes the statistical models of fading channels which are frequently used in the analysis and design of communication systems, and focuses on the information theory of fading channel, by emphasizing capacity as the most important performance measure.

TL;DR: This correspondence provides an alternative view of the proof for secrecy capacity of wire tap channels and shows how capacity achieving codes can be used to achieve the secrecy capacity for any wiretap channel, and shows that it is possible to construct linear-time decodable secrecy codes based on low-density parity-check codes that achieve secrecy.

TL;DR: It is shown that forward error correction can improve the energy efficiency eventhough it introduces additional parity bits and encoding/decoding energy consumptions, and binary BCH codes are found to be 15% more energy efficient than the best performing convolutional codes.
