| Summary: | Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are highly mobile and easily deployabledevices that have become an important component of wireless communica-tion countermeasures. Covert communication, the main method used toensure wireless communication security, has been extensively studied inrecent years. However, existing research primarily uses UAVs as auxiliarytools for covert communications, to improve communication performance,ignoring situations in which the detector utilizes UAVs for interference sup-pression. In this study, we propose a UAV-assisted jamming detectioncovert communication game model. Specifically, the UAV actively transmitsnoise to Alice’s transmission channels to disrupt covert transmission whenWillie detects a covert communication transmission. Furthermore, we ana-lyze the adversarial process between the detector and Alice under UAV-assisted jamming based on game theory, theoretically verify the conditionsfor the existence of a Nash equilibrium, and formulate optimal strategiesfor both sides. |
