Abstract :
We consider the secrecy inherent in the reciprocal nature of multipath fading channels and present a technique to generate a shared perfectly secret key by two terminals observing a multipath fading channel. Using this technique we quantify the secrecy that can be generated from ITU cellular channels for the 2 GHz frequency range.
