| Summary: | This research investigates the feasibility of covert and reliable communication between Alice and Bob in the presence of a vigilant adversary, Willie, employing a jammer in a complex Gaussian channel. Alice strategically manipulates the noise-power ratio along the real and imaginary axes to disrupt Willie’s detection capabilities. Covertness constraints are quantified using KL divergence, and transmission performance is assessed through mutual information. Additionally, an optimization method is introduced to enhance covert communication by fine-tuning the amplitude gain and noise-power ratio. Numerical results confirm the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed method, showcasing its ability to maximize covert transmission rates.
