Abstract

Ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC) and reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) aided communication are two key technologies in future wireless communications. However, secure URLLC over RIS-adied communication channels receives little attention in the literature. In this paper, we propose finite blocklength (FBL) coding schemes for RIS aided SISO/SIMO/MIMO systems in the presence of an eavesdropper (no direct link between the transceiver), which are based on an existing coding scheme for the point-to-point white Gaussian channel with noiseless feedback. Then, we show that the proposed schemes are self-secure when the blocklengths are larger than certain thresholds. Finally, numerical results show that for given decoding error probability and secrecy level, the required coding blocklengths of our proposed schemes are extremely short, and the secrecy capacities of the RIS-aided systems without channel feedback are significantly enhanced by our feedback schemes.
