基于矢量分解门控循环单元的射频指纹隐匿方法

      A Radio Frequency Fingerprint Concealment Method Based on Vector Decomposed Gated Recurrent Unit

      • 摘要: 射频指纹识别(radio frequency fingerprint identification, RFFI)依赖硬件非理想特性实现无依赖身份鉴别,广泛应用于物联网设备管理与无线安全等场景。然而,RFFI在提升设备可识别性的同时也带来了潜在的隐私泄露风险。为此,本文构建了一种射频指纹隐匿(radio frequency fingerprint concealment, RFFC)框架,用以抑制设备身份特征的暴露。进一步地,本文提出一种基于矢量分解门控循环单元(vector decomposed gated recurrent unit, VDGRU)的RFF建模网络,通过构建发射机链路的逆向建模模块以还原原始基带信号,并将该逆模型用于前向补偿,实现RFF特征的逆向嵌入,从而削弱信号通过发射链路后的指纹特性。该方法采用幅度序列驱动的GRU建模非线性失真,并结合相位重构机制提升信号隐蔽性与保真度。在多类发射机、不同信噪比和多径信道环境下进行的实验表明,所提方法在多种主流RFFI系统中均能显著降低识别准确率,且在混淆矩阵、特征分布可视化与信号线性度等指标上表现出优越的隐匿效果,展现出良好的通用性与鲁棒性。

         

        Abstract: Radio frequency fingerprint identification (RFFI) has been widely adopted in IoT device management and wireless security due to its ability to authenticate devices based on hardware-induced imperfections without higher-layer dependencies. However, its growing identifiability also raises concerns about potential privacy leakage. To address this, this paper proposes a radio frequency fingerprint concealment (RFFC) framework to suppress the exposure of device identity features. Furthermore, a novel RFF modeling network based on the vector decomposed gated recurrent unit (VDGRU) is developed. This network reconstructs the original baseband signal by modeling the inverse mapping of the transmitter chain and reuses the inverse model as a forward compensator to embed inverse RFF features, thereby mitigating fingerprint characteristics after transmission. The approach employs amplitude-driven GRU modeling for nonlinear distortion and integrates a phase reconstruction mechanism to enhance both concealment and signal fidelity. Experimental evaluations across multiple transmitters, signal-to-noise ratios, and multipath channel conditions demonstrate that the proposed method significantly degrades identification accuracy in various mainstream RFFI systems. It also achieves superior concealment in terms of confusion matrices, feature distribution visualization, and signal linearity metrics, exhibiting strong generalization and robustness.
