  • Method and system for high rate uncorrelated shared secret bit extraction from wireless link characteristics
    Patent number: 8515061
    Abstract: A new methodology to exchange a random secret key between two parties. The diverse physical characteristics of the wireless medium and device mobility are exploited for secure key exchange. Unique physical characteristics of wireless channels between the two devices are measured at different random locations. A function of these unique characteristics determines the shared secret key between the two devices.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 11, 2009
    Date of Patent: August 20, 2013
    Assignee: The University of Utah Research Foundation
    Inventors: Neal Patwari, Jessica Erin Croft, Suman Jana, Sneha Kasera
