Wireless physical layer (PHY) security has attracted much attention due
to the broadcast nature of the wireless medium and its inherent
vulnerability to eavesdropping, jamming, and interference.
Physical Layer Security for Wireless Sensing and Communication covers
both communication and sensing security from a broad perspective. The
main emphasis is on PHY security, although other security measures are
covered for the sake of completeness and as a step towards cross-layer
security and cognitive security vision. After discussing the features of
wireless channels from both the communication and sensing perspectives,
the book details their exploitation for secure transmission utilizing
various approaches. Wireless sensing and radio environment concepts are
also addressed, along with the related security implications in terms of
eavesdropping, disruption, manipulation, and, in general, the
exploitation of wireless sensing by unauthorised users. Several
solutions for these threats from the domains of wireless communication,
military radars, and machine learning, are discussed.
The book provides valuable information to researchers in academia and
industry, as well as engineers, developers, and advanced students in the
field of cybersecurity.
