Abstract

Satellite communications are vulnerable to malicious eavesdroppers and interceptors due to wide coverage and broadcasting applications. However, technologies for securing satellite networks have yet to be more articulated beyond high-layer packet encryption. As attempts for jamming and spoofing attacks spread out, it is extremely critical to invest on the development of physical layer security solutions. In this paper, we review current technologies for satellite communication network security both in high and physical layers. We also present recent research results on physical layer security in the fields of information theory and wireless networks. We suggest a future direction for satellite communication security, including a cross-layer approach.

위성 통신은 무선 채널을 통한 광역 브로드캐스팅 특성으로 인하여 보안에 취약한 약점을 가지고 있음에도 불구하고, 위성 통신을 위한 보안 기법으로는 지상 통신에서 사용해 오던 상위 계층에서의 암호화를 제외하고 많은 방법이 알려져 있지 않다. 특히 물리계층에서의 재밍, 스푸핑 신호 공격 빈도가 증가함에 따라 이에 대한 대응 기술 개발이 중요하다고 할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 위성통신망 보안 문제에 대해서 상위 계층과 물리 계층에서의 대응책에 대해 각각 정리하고, 사물인터넷 등의 지상망 적용을 위해 정보이론 관점에서 개발되고 있는 물리 계층 보안 기법의 최근 연구 결과에 대해 알아본다. 교차 계층 접근 방식을 포함하여, 위성 통신보안을 향상시킬 수 있는 향후 연구 방향을 제시한다.
