March 23, 2017

Yao Liu has been awarded a Department of Defense DURIP grant titled "Towards Wireless Physical Layer Security Leveraging Massive and Distributed MIMO Radios" for $200,000. This project aims to create a wireless infrastructure equipped with distributed Multiple Input and Multiple Output (MIMO) radios to collect real time wireless channel characteristics simultaneously from multiple pairs of wireless nodes, and to enable the design and validation of new wireless security schemes, which are built upon wireless channel features in complex multi-node communication scenarios. A software defined radio infrastructure will be ultimately created to further advocate wireless security.

This award is one of the two DURIP awards that University of South Florida receives from the Department of Defenses for FY 2017. See more winners of the FY 2017 competition under the DURIP program.
