In this paper, we explore sensing security in near-field (NF) integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) scenarios by exploiting known scatterers in the sensing scene. We propose a location deception (LD) scheme where scatterers are deliberately illuminated with probing power that is higher than that directed toward targets of interest, with the goal of deceiving potential eavesdroppers (Eves) with sensing capability into misidentifying scatterers as targets. While the known scatterers can be removed at the legitimate sensing receiver, our LD approach causes Eves to misdetect targets. Notably, this deception is achieved without requiring any prior information about the Eves' characteristics or locations. To strike a flexible three-way tradeoff among communication, sensing, and sensing-security performance, the sum rate and power allocated to scatterers are weighted and maximized under a legitimate radar signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) constraint. We employ the fractional programming (FP) framework and semidefinite relaxation (SDR) to solve this problem. To evaluate the security of the proposed LD scheme, the Cramer-Rao Bound (CRB) and mean squared error (MSE) metrics are employed. Additionally, we introduce the Kullback-Leibler Divergence (KLD) gap between targets and scatterers at Eve to quantify the impact of the proposed LD framework on Eve's sensing performance from an information-theoretical perspective. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed LD scheme can flexibly adjust the beamforming strategy according to performance requirements, thereby achieving the desired three-way tradeoff. In particular, in terms of sensing security, the proposed scheme significantly enhances the clutter signal strength at Eve's side, leading to confusion or even missed detection of the actual target.

Joint Secure Transmit Beamforming Designs for Integrated Sensing and Communication Systems
通感一体化(Integrated Sensing and Communication,ISAC)技术是一种新兴的、有前途的技术,它允许单个雷达和通信系统共享相同的频谱带,以缓解频谱拥塞问题。在本文中,我们研究如何利用强雷达信号的固有干扰,以确保所考虑的多用户多输入单输出(MU-MISO)通信和多输入多输出(MIMO)雷达共存系统的物理层安全(PLS)。特别地,在已知窃听者的信道状态信息(CSI)的情况下,提出了通信系统和雷达系统的发射波束形成器的联合设计方法,以最小化多个合法用户的最大窃听信干噪比(SINR),同时保证合法传输的通信服务质量(QoS)、雷达检测性能的要求以及雷达和通信系统两者的发射功率约束。当窃听者的CSI不可用时,我们提出了一种联合人工噪声(AN)辅助发射波束形成设计方案,该方案利用剩余可用功率来生成AN,以破坏恶意接收,同时满足合法传输和雷达目标检测的要求。大量的仿真验证了所提出的联合波束成形设计的ISAC系统的安全传输和所开发的算法的有效性的优势。
