On Strong Secrecy for Multiple Access Channel with States and Causal CSI
share
Strong secrecy communication over a discrete memoryless state-dependent multiple access channel (SD-MAC) with an external eavesdropper is investigated. The channel is governed by discrete memoryless and i.i.d. channel states and the channel state information (CSI) is revealed to the encoders in a causal manner. An inner bound of the capacity is provided. To establish the inner bound, we investigate coding schemes incorporating wiretap coding and secret key agreement between the sender and the legitimate receiver. Two kinds of block Markov coding schemes are studied. The first one uses backward decoding and Wyner-Ziv coding and the secret key is constructed from a lossy reproduction of the CSI. The other one is an extended version of the existing coding scheme for point-to-point wiretap channels with causal CSI. We further investigate some capacity-achieving cases for state-dependent multiple access wiretap channels (SD-MAWCs) with degraded message sets. It turns out that the two coding schemes are both optimal in these cases.
