Abstract

Until today, Physical Layer Security (PLS) has been a concept from information theory without practical implementations. We here describe a demonstration of how PLS can be achieved with common off-the-shelf WiFi equipment and open-source software. The key principle is that we make intelligent use of the architecture of a wireless network instead of trying to control every link individually on the physical layer.
