Kirchhoff Meets Johnson: In Pursuit of Unconditionally Secure Communication

arXiv:2312.02042v3 Announce Type: replace-cross
Abstract: Noise: an enemy to be dealt with and a major factor limiting communication system performance. However, what if there is gold in that garbage? In conventional engineering, our focus is primarily on eliminating, suppressing, combating, or even ignoring noise and its detrimental impacts. Conversely, could we exploit it similarly to biology, which utilizes noise-alike carrier signals to convey information? In this context, the utilization of noise, or noise-alike signals in general, has been put forward …
