Dynamic Information Security Systems through Adaptive Architecture

Volume 2

The manufacturing industry is at the forefront of a digital transformation that promises significant enhancements in product and service quality. However, this technological shift also raises concerns about data security and information protection. In response to these challenges, a research study was conducted to investigate cybersecurity incidents in manufacturers and assess the effectiveness of the Zero-Trust Architecture (ZTA) as a solution. The primary objectives of this research were to: examine..

A Novel Approach towards Establishing Free Space Optical Inter Satellite Links beyond the Kármán Line

Volume 1

The rapid surge in the technological advancement of humanity calls for development of faster, reliable & effective communication methods between satellites orbiting in outer space. The infamous inter-satellite link technology, coupled with free space optical communication is a robust solution for the same. While establishing this for low earth orbit satellites, it is critical to ensure that the links established across the two satellites avoid the atmosphere, i.e., the links..

Physical Layer Security in Lossy Untrusted Relay Networks with Finite Blocklength

Volume 1

In this paper, we examine the physical layer security (PLS) in lossy untrusted relay networks, focusing on finite blocklength transmissions. In such networks, ensuring secure communication is particularly challenging due to the presence of untrusted relay nodes and the inherent limitations of short-packet transmissions. We propose the reliable-and-secure probability (RSP) as a performance metric to evaluate the likelihood that the destination node successfully recovers the transmitted message while untrusted relays..

Technological Trends in Open Fronthauls for Beyond 5G and 6G Networks

Volume 1

Ultra-massive interconnection composed of extremely small to minuscule networks that are significantly overloaded is required for the fifth generation (5G) and the next sixth generation (6G) networks. In order to meet the demands for network flexibility, complete coverage, and huge access, the conventional radio access network (RAN) will be completely revamped. This study focuses on the technological trends in the requirements-fulfilling Open RAN (ORAN) architecture and essential technologies in this..

Towards Low Complexity VLC Systems: A Multi-Task Learning Approach

Volume 1

In the rapidly evolving landscape of wireless communication, visible light communication (VLC) stands out for its potential to redefine high-speed data exchange. Recently, VLC has utilized waveforms that combine multiple bitstreams in a unified physical layer, allowing for high-speed data exchange, precise localization, and robust control simultaneously. Particularly, the demodulation tasks of beacon position modulation (BPM) and beacon phase shift keying (BePSK) are central to decoding of such waveforms and..
