Efficient bootstrapping of transmitter authentication and use thereof

Abstract:

A GAN includes a first device and a second device. A discriminator model in the first device is trained to discriminate samples from a transmitter in the first device from samples from other transmitters, by collaborating by the first device with the second device to train the discriminator model to discriminate between samples from its transmitter and spoofed samples received from a generator model in the second device and to train the generator model in the second device to produce more accurate spoofed samples received by the first device during the training. The training results in a trained discriminator model, which is distributed to another device for use by the other device to discriminate samples received by the other device in order to perform authentication of the transmitter in the first device. The other device performs authentication of the transmitter of the first device using the distributed model.
