RF devices can be identified by unique imperfections embedded in the signals they transmit called RF fingerprints. The closed set classification of such devices, where the identification must be made among an authorized set of transmitters, has been well explored. However, the much more difficult problem of open set classification, where the classifier needs to reject unauthorized transmitters while recognizing authorized transmitters, has only been recently visited. So far, efforts at open set classification have largely relied on the utilization of signal samples captured from a known set of unauthorized transmitters to aid the classifier learn unauthorized transmitter fingerprints. Since acquiring new transmitters to use as known transmitters is highly expensive, we propose to use generative deep learning methods to emulate unauthorized signal samples for the augmentation of training datasets. We develop two different data augmentation techniques, one that exploits a limited number of known unauthorized transmitters and the other that does not require any unauthorized transmitters. Experiments conducted on a dataset captured from a WiFi testbed indicate that data augmentation allows for significant increases in open set classification accuracy, especially when the authorized set is small.

We present a new RF fingerprinting technique for wireless emitters that is based on a simple, easily and efficiently retrainable Ridge Regression (RR) classifier. The RR learns to identify devices using bursts of waveform samples, conveniently transf
ormed and preprocessed by delay-loop reservoirs. Deep delay Loop Reservoir Computing (DLR) is our processing architecture that supports general machine learning algorithms on resource-constrained devices by leveraging delay-loop reservoir computing (RC) and innovative architectures of loop trees. In prior work, we trained and evaluated DLR using high SNR device emissions in clean channels. We here demonstrate how to use DLR for IoT authentication by performing RF-based Specific Emitter Identification (SEI), even in the presence of fading channels and heavy in-band jamming by leveraging a matched filter (MF) extension, dubbed MF-DLR. We show that the MF processing improves the SEI performance of RR without the RC transformation (MF-RR), but the MF-DLR is more robust and applicable for addressing signatures beyond waveform transients (e.g. turn-on).
Physical layer authentication relies on detecting unique imperfections in signals transmitted by radio devices to isolate their fingerprint. Recently, deep learning-based authenticators have increasingly been proposed to classify devices using these
fingerprints, as they achieve higher accuracies compared to traditional approaches. However, it has been shown in other domains that adding carefully crafted perturbations to legitimate inputs can fool such classifiers. This can undermine the security provided by the authenticator. Unlike adversarial attacks applied in other domains, an adversary has no control over the propagation environment. Therefore, to investigate the severity of this type of attack in wireless communications, we consider an unauthorized transmitter attempting to have its signals classified as authorized by a deep learning-based authenticator. We demonstrate a reinforcement learning-based attack where the impersonator--using only the authenticators binary authentication decision--distorts its signals in order to penetrate the system. Extensive simulations and experiments on a software-defined radio testbed indicate that at appropriate channel conditions and bounded by a maximum distortion level, it is possible to fool the authenticator reliably at more than 90% success rate.
In congested electromagnetic environments, cognitive radios require knowledge about other emitters in order to optimize their dynamic spectrum access strategy. Deep learning classification algorithms have been used to recognize the wireless signal st
andards of emitters with high accuracy, but are limited to classifying signal classes that appear in their training set. This diminishes the performance of deep learning classifiers deployed in the field because they cannot accurately identify signals from classes outside of the training set. In this paper, a convolution neural network based open set classifier is proposed with the ability to detect if signals are not from known classes by thresholding the output sigmoid activation. The open set classifier was trained on 4G LTE, 5G NR, IEEE 802.11ax, Bluetooth Low Energy 5.0, and Narrowband Internet-of-Things signals impaired with Rayleigh or Rician fading, AWGN, frequency offsets, and in-phase/quadrature imbalances. Then, the classifier was tested on OFDM, SC-FDMA, SC, AM, and FM signals, which did not appear in the training set classes. The closed set classifier achieves an average accuracy of 94.5% for known signals with SNRs greater than 0 dB, but by design, has a 0% accuracy detecting signals from unknown classes. On the other hand, the open set classifier retains an 86% accuracy for known signal classes, but can detect 95.5% of signals from unknown classes with SNRs greater than 0 dB.
Over the past six years, deep generative models have achieved a qualitatively new level of performance. Generated data has become difficult, if not impossible, to be distinguished from real data. While there are plenty of use cases that benefit from
this technology, there are also strong concerns on how this new technology can be misused to spoof sensors, generate deep fakes, and enable misinformation at scale. Unfortunately, current deep fake detection methods are not sustainable, as the gap between real and fake continues to close. In contrast, our work enables a responsible disclosure of such state-of-the-art generative models, that allows researchers and companies to fingerprint their models, so that the generated samples containing a fingerprint can be accurately detected and attributed to a source. Our technique achieves this by an efficient and scalable ad-hoc generation of a large population of models with distinct fingerprints. Our recommended operation point uses a 128-bit fingerprint which in principle results in more than $10^{36}$ identifiable models. Experiments show that our method fulfills key properties of a fingerprinting mechanism and achieves effectiveness in deep fake detection and attribution.
Wireless signals contain transmitter specific features, which can be used to verify the identity of transmitters and assist in implementing an authentication and authorization system. Most recently, there has been wide interest in using deep learning
for transmitter identification. However, the existing deep learning work has posed the problem as closed set classification, where a neural network classifies among a finite set of known transmitters. No matter how large this set is, it will not include all transmitters that exist. Malicious transmitters outside this closed set, once within communications range, can jeopardize the system security. In this paper, we propose a deep learning approach for transmitter authorization based on open set recognition. Our proposed approach identifies a set of authorized transmitters, while rejecting any other unseen transmitters by recognizing their signals as outliers. We propose three approaches for this problem and show their ability to reject signals from unauthorized transmitters on a dataset of WiFi captures. We consider the structure of training data needed, and we show that the accuracy improves by having signals from known unauthorized transmitters in the training set.
