A Physical Layer Security Method based on Hybrid Optical Encryption
Aiming at the current eavesdropping security issues in the physical layer of optical networks
a new hybrid optical encryption scheme based on Highly Nonlinear Fiber (HNLF) and Super Structured Fiber Bragg Grating (SSFBG) is proposed in this paper. In the scheme
degenerate Four Wave Mixing (FWM) is used to encrypt and decrypt user information
and optical coding technology is used to encode and decode the key information. Therefore
the encoding and secret transmission of the key signal can be realized simultaneously. The security of the system is measured by comparing the waveform of the encrypted signal transmitted in the channel with the waveform of the original transmitted signal
and the effectiveness of the system is measured by the bit error rate at the system receiver side. The simulation results show that the frequency and phase of the user data information are disturbed
and the optical power of the encoded key signal is as low as -34.4 dBm. Therefore
the eavesdropping channel cannot obtain effective data information nor detect the key signal
which demonstrates the safe transmission of Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (QPSK) signal.
