| contents | We propose a novel advantage distillation strategy for physical layer-based secret-key-agreement (SKA). We consider a scenario where Alice and Bob aim at extracting a common bit sequence, which should remain secret to Eve, by quantizing a random number obtained from measurements at their communication channel. We propose an asymmetric advantage distillation protocol with two novel features: i) Alice quantizes her measurement and sends partial information on it over an authenticated public side channel, and ii) Bob quantizes his measurement by exploiting the partial information. The partial information on the position of the measurement in the quantization interval and its sharing allows Bob to obtain a quantized value closer to that of Alice. Both strategies increase the lower bound of the secret key rate. |
