The GLOBECOM 2017 Workshop on Trusted Communications with Physical Layer Security will take place on 8th December 2017 in Singapore. The objective of the workshop is to both foster and develop the ground-breaking technique to secure wireless communications by exploiting the broadcast nature of wireless channels at the physical layer. In line with such objectives, original contributions are solicited in topics of interest including, but not limited to, the following:

  • Secure methodologies and architectures for mobile and wireless networks
  • Secure signal processing
  • Secure fundamental theory
  • Secure advanced spatial diversity techniques (secure cooperative communications, secure two-way cooperative communications, secure MIMO communications and secure cognitive radio systems)
  • Secure resource allocation (secure optimization, secure cross-layer optimization and game theory techniques)
  • Multi-user information theoretical security (coordinated design and distributed design)
  • Security and privacy in the Internet of Things
  • Security for HetNets, massive MIMO systems, and mm-wave transmission
  • Cross-layer designs for security
  • Security and quantum communications
  • Trust, security and privacy in e-government, e-systems, and social networking
  • Trust, security and privacy in cloud computing
  • Performance of practical testbeds for PHY layer security
