Abstract :
Secure key generation is one of the promising approach to establish secured link between two legitimate nodes for wireless communication. We established a system, which generate the secret key at the both end of the legitimate node. Secure key generation system contain four major block namely channel estimation, quantization, information reconciliation and privacy amplification, in which quantization is one of the important module. In secured key generation, output of the quantizer will affects the bit mismatch rate significantly. The present paper analyses different quantization schemes to make synchronization between two nodes. By applying key generation technique, we analyze effect of quantization bit on the key disagreement rate.

Key-Words / Index Term :
