Hiding Messages in Secure Connection Transmissions with Full-Duplex Overt Receiver.

This paper considers hiding messages in overt transmissions with a full-duplex receiver, which emits artificial noise to secure its transmission connection while a transmitter opportunistically sends a covert message to a covert user. The warden's uncertainties in decoding the overt message and artificial-noise-received power are exploited to hide messages. Then, the covert throughput accompanied with the warden's average detection error probability are determined.

Joint Semi-Blind Self-Interference Cancellation and Equalisation Processes in 5G QC-LDPC-Encoded Short-Packet Full-Duplex Transmissions.

The paper proposes a joint semi-blind algorithm for simultaneously cancelling the self-interference component and estimating the propagation channel in 5G Quasi-Cyclic Low-Density Parity-Check (QC-LDPC)-encoded short-packet Full-Duplex (FD) transmissions. To avoid the effect of channel estimation processes when using short-packet transmissions, this semi-blind algorithm was developed by taking into account only a small number (four at least) pilot symbols, which was integrated with the intended information sequence and used for the feedback loop of the estimation of the channels. The results showed that this semi-blind algorithm not only achieved nearly optimal performance, but also significantly reduced the processing time and computational complexity.
