wpls 2011 - IEEE ICC 2011 Workshop on Physical Layer Security

The ICC 2011 Workshop on Physical Layer Security will take place on June 5th, 2011 in Kyoto, Japan. The objective of the workshop is to stimulate interest for research in practical and theoretical aspects of physical‐layer security, a new, groundbreaking approach to provide security for wireless communication networks by exploiting the unique characteristics of wireless communication channels. The workshop will include two keynote lectures and a panel discussion to foster discussions and cross‐fertilization.

Previously unpublished contributions on advanced coding, communication and signal processing techniques to secure wireless communications are solicited, including (but not limited to):
practical code design for wiretap channels and secret‐key agreement;
fundamental limits of secure communications over wireless channels;
integration of physical‐layer security paradigms in wireless systems;
new applications of physical‐layer security.

Submitted papers should be of sufficient length and detail for review by experts in the field. Final papers will be limited to 5 pages in standard IEEE conference format and will be published at IEEExplore. Author guidelines are available at http://www.ieee-icc.org/author_guide.php
