Abstract
Channel coding and security are important in a communication system. The 5th generation (5G) mobile communication networks call for higher requirements of new coding technologies and encryption technologies. As an efficient coding method, polar codes have attracted more attention in recent years. Besides, the peak-to-average-power ratio (PAPR) is a major problem of the orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) system, which will significantly affect the performance of the OFDM system. In this paper, joint physical-layer encryption and PAPR reduction scheme is proposed, aiming to solve the PAPR problem and achieve high security of the transmission system. In this scheme, we utilize the key generation technology of wireless channels to get the initial value of chaotic sequences. Then, the chaotic sequences can be used to encrypt the information and reduce PAPR simultaneously. Moreover, we use the best information bits of polar codes to store the serial number index of chaotic sequences. The theoretic analysis and simulation results show that the proposed scheme can not only achieve high security in the physical layer but also reduce PAPR in the OFDM system without increasing system complexity and latency.
