Abstract
Physical-layer authentication based on the channel response
over a wireless medium are described. In a first authentication
scheme, a count is kept of how many significant
multipath taps remain empty or occupied from one channel
estimate to the next for authentication purposes. In a second
authentication scheme, which does not require an alternative
means of initial authentication, the presence of a multipath
component based on a reported position of a transmitter and
the side knowledge of planar reflectors in the environment
may be leveraged for authentication purposes.
