A method and an apparatus for performing physical layer security operation are disclosed. A physical layer performs measurements continuously, and reports the measurements to a medium access control (MAC) layer. The MAC layer processes the measurements, and sends a security alert to a security manager upon detection of an abnormal condition based on the measurements. The security manager implements a counter-measure upon receipt of the security alert. The measurements include channel impulse response (CIR), physical medium power measurement, automatic gain control (AGC) value and status, automatic frequency control (AFC) gain and status, analog-to-digital converter (ADC) gain, Doppler spread estimate, and/or short preamble matched filter output. The security manager may switch a channel, switch a channel hopping policy, change a back-off protocol, or change a beamforming vector upon reception of the security alert.

A method and apparatus for performing Joint Randomness Not Shared by Others (JRNSO) is disclosed. In one embodiment, JRNSO is determined in Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) using a baseband signal loop back and private pilots. In another embodiment, JRNSO is determined in Time Division Duplex (TDD) using a baseband signal loop back and combinations of private pilots, private gain functions and Kalman filtering directional processing. In one example, the FDD and TDD JRSNO embodiments are performed in Single-Input-Single-Output (SISO) and Single-Input-Multiple-Output (SIMO) communications. In other examples, the FDD and TDD embodiments are performed in Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO) and Multiple-Input-Single-Output (MISO) communications. JRNSO is determined by reducing MIMO and MISO communications to SISO or SIMO communications. JRNSO is also determined using determinants of MIMO channel products. Channel restrictions are removed by exploiting symmetric properties of matrix products.

A method for network coding of packets between End Nodes (ENs) and a Relay Node (RN) in wireless communications can be performed at the RN. This method may include: receiving a new packet at the RN from one of the ENs; determining the source node of the new packet at the RN; providing a buffer for each EN; determining whether the buffer associated with the EN that is not the source of the new packet (non-source buffer) has the new packet buffered and based upon such determination, either: (1) storing the new packet in the EN buffer that is the source of the new packet on a condition that the non-source buffer is empty; or (2) network coding the new packet with an existing packet in the non-source buffer.
摘要:
Systems and methods for integrating bandwidth management (BWM) equipment into a network in order to manage the use of bandwidth over multiple radio access technologies (RATs) relating to communications between a wireless transmit receive unit and a mobile core network (MCN). When integrating itself into the network, a BWM server may be placed between a MCN and an femto access point. In order for WTRUs to communicate with the MCN through the femto access point and a BWM server, a BWM server may need deep packet inspection capabilities.

A method and system for generating a secret key from joint randomness shared by wireless transmit/receive units (WTRUs) are disclosed. A first WTRU and a second WTRU perform channel estimation to generate a sampled channel impulse response (CIR) on a channel between the first WTRU and the second WTRU. The first WTRU generates a set of bits from the sampled CIR and generates a secret key and a syndrome, (or parity bits), from the set of bits. The first WTRU sends the syndrome, (or parity bits), to the second WTRU. The second WTRU reconstructs the set of bits from the syndrome, (or parity bits), and its own sampled CIR, and generates the secret key from the reconstructed set of bits.
摘要:
A wireless transmit/receive unit (WTRU) and a Node B, respectively, perform joint randomness not shared by others (JRNSO) measurement to generate JRNSO bits based on a channel estimate between the WTRU and the Node B. The WTRU and the Node B then perform a reconciliation procedure to generate a common JRNSO bits. The Node B sends the common JRNSO bits to a serving network. The WTRU and the SN secure a session key (such as an integrity key, a cipher key and an anonymity key), using the common JRNSO bits. The JRNSO measurements are performed on an on-going basis, and the session key is updated using a new set of common JRNSO bits. The JRNSO bits may be expanded by using a pseudorandom number generator (PNG) or a windowing technique. A handover may be intentionally induced to increase the JRNSO bits generation rate.

Methods, systems and apparatus for managing and/or enforcing one or more policies for managing internet protocol (“IP”) traffic among multiple accesses of a network in accordance with a policy for managing bandwidth among the multiple accesses are disclosed. Among the methods, systems and apparatus is a method that may include obtaining performance metrics associated with the multiple accesses. The method may also include adapting one or more rules of one or more the policies for managing IP traffic among the plurality of accesses based, at least in part, on the performance metrics and the policy for managing bandwidth among the plurality of accesses. The method may further include managing IP traffic associated with at least one wireless transmit and/or receive unit (“WTRU”) among the plurality of accesses responsive to the adapted rules.

The method may also include sending, to the WTRU, a request to associate the flow of IP traffic with the selected access system.
