In this work, the concept of optical identification (OI) based on physical unclonable functions is introduced for first time, to our knowledge, in communication systems and networks. The OI assigns an fingerprint corresponding digital representation each sub-system network estimates its reliability different measures. We highlight large potential applications as a layer approach security, identification, authentication, monitoring purposes. To identify most sub-systems network, we propose...
We introduce a technique to generate and read the digital signature of networks, channels, optical devices that possess fiber-optic pigtails enhance physical layer security (PLS). Attributing networks or eases identification authentication systems thus reducing their vulnerability attacks. The signatures are generated using an unclonable function (OPUF). Considering OPUFs established as most potent anti-counterfeiting tool, created robust against malicious attacks such tampering cyber...
We introduce the concept of optical fingerprint in communications and networks. In assumption being able to read devices', sub-systems', systems' fingerprint, a new model is proposed order address services including security, authentication, identification, monitoring.
We propose a new method for network authentication, identification, and secure communication, using the optical physical unclonable function Challenge-Response (PUF-CRPs) database protocol. investigated performance generated with proposed protocol by identifying 150 networks ID. Different methods strategies generating exerting PUF-based CRP databases are numerically validated. The may find applications identification security different architectures.
