By introducing high randomness with reduced computational cost, physical layer (PHY) key generation is one of the candidate tools which can be used for the security of the Internet of Things (IoT) applications. Non-identical secret keys are one of the main problems of the physical layer (PHY) key generation schemes. In order to address this problem, key verification schemes which are based on information reconciliation are used. In the current key verification techniques, the legitimate nodes reveal some information related to their secret keys in order to eliminate non-identical bits.
