Abstract
A secret-key agreement for in-band full-duplex (FD) technology can be regarded as a valuable method for establishing security at the physical layer level. In this paper, we study an FD system model in conjunction with a secret-key agreement. The legitimate users interact through two-way channel probing and one-way reconciliation. We first introduce two complementary key generation models for FD and half-duplex (HD) settings, and compare their performances by introducing the key-reconciliation function. Furthermore, we study the impact of probing-reconciliation tradeoff and the role of a strong eavesdropper, and analyze the system performance in the high-signal-to-noise ratio regime. We show that under certain conditions, the FD mode negatively affects the capabilities of the eavesdropper and offers several advantages in terms of secret-key rate over the conventional HD setups. Our analysis reveals that the perfect self-interference cancellation is not necessary to obtain performance gains over the HD mode.
