Recent years have seen the explosion of smart home Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices and platforms, underscoring the need to address security and privacy of smart home communications. The demand for IoT devices (e.g., smart speakers, locks, and activity trackers) is occurring while radio spectrum, a necessary ingredient for wireless service, becomes increasingly scarce. As a result, multiple wireless technologies coexist and compete for spectrum resources, resulting in degraded spectrum efficiency and security. This project aims to enhance the reliability and security of smart home networks by leveraging the security and energy efficiency properties of ultrasonic communication, and by integrating them with radio-frequency technology. The success of this project will result in a new communication system that can provide secure and reliable communication on two different types of spectrum - radio-frequency and ultrasound - to help alleviate the crowded radio frequency spectrum and prevent aggregated security attacks. The proposed project aims to significantly improve the security of smart home networks, and will also have a positive impact on education through the creation of new wireless security course projects and modules; provision of research training opportunities for undergraduate and graduate students of underrepresented groups; and broad dissemination of project results through high-profile tutorials, talks, publications, software tool kits, and open-source sites. The goal of this project is to develop novel, practical and foundational solutions to secure smart home IoT networks. The research focuses on the following objectives: 1) Develop and assess the performance of a hybrid ultrasound/radio-frequency transceiver using a wideband ultrasonic transducer to enable secure and reliable IoT communication by leveraging phased acoustic array technology; 2) Ensure the robustness of IoT communications by developing multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) interference cancellation and directional ultrasonic anti-jamming communication technologies; and 3) Design a location-restricted device authentication mechanism without the reliance on credentials by leveraging signal features of the ambient radio-frequency and ultrasonic signals, aiming for for immediate and trustworthy authentication of IoT devices. The proposed solution will be tested using large-scale simulations and experimentally tested via software-defined radio testbeds and ultrasonic radio prototypes. The project pursues advances in our understanding of security in smart home IoT networks, thereby providing guidance on the design of next-generation smart home systems.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

近年来，智能家庭互联网（IoT）设备和平台的爆炸式增长，强调了解决智能家庭通信的安全性和隐私的需求。对物联网设备（例如智能扬声器，锁和活动跟踪器）的需求正在发生，而无线服务的必要成分无线电频谱变得越来越稀缺。结果，多个无线技术共存并争夺频谱资源，从而导致频谱效率和安全性降低。该项目旨在通过利用超声通信的安全性和能源效率属性，并将其与射频技术集成在一起，从而提高智能家庭网络的可靠性和安全性。该项目的成功将导致一个新的通信系统，该系统可以在两种不同类型的频谱（射频和超声波）上提供安全可靠的通信，以帮助减轻拥挤的射频频谱并防止汇总的安全攻击。拟议的项目旨在显着提高智能家庭网络的安全性，并通过创建新的无线安全课程项目和模块来对教育产生积极影响；为本科生的本科和研究生提供研究培训机会；以及通过备受瞩目的教程，演讲，出版物，软件工具套件和开源网站来广泛传播项目结果。该项目的目的是开发新颖，实用和基础的解决方案来确保智能家庭IoT网络。该研究重点介绍以下目标：1）使用宽带超声超声传感器来开发和评估混合超声/射频收发器的性能，以通过利用基于规模的声学阵列技术来实现安全可靠的物联网通信； 2）通过开发多输入多输出（MIMO）干扰取消和定向超声抗杀伤通信技术来确保物联网通信的鲁棒性； 3）设计一种限制位置限制的设备身份验证机制，而无需依赖凭据，通过利用环境射频和超声信号的信号特征，目的是立即对IoT设备进行立即且值得信赖的身份验证。提出的解决方案将使用大型模拟进行测试，并通过软件定义的无线电测试台和超声波无线电原型进行实验测试。该项目追求我们对智能家庭IoT网络安全性的理解的进步，从而为下一代智能家居系统的设计提供了指导。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是通过基金会的智力优点和更广泛影响的审查标准通过评估来通过评估来获得支持的。
