  • Abstract
    In this work the arbitrarily varying wiretap channel AVWC under the average error criterion and the strong secrecy criterion is studied. We show that in the case of a non-symmetrisable channel to the legitimate receiver the deterministic code secrecy capacity equals the random code secrecy capacity and thus we establish a result for the AVWC similar to that of Ahlswede´s dichotomy for ordinary AVCs. We derive a lower bound on the random code secrecy capacity in the case of a best channel to the eavesdropper. We further prove upper bounds on the deterministic code secrecy capacity, which in special cases results in explicit expressions of the secrecy capacity.
