Abstract

A secret key sharing system includes a transceiver in a first layer, a plurality of transceivers in a second layer, and a plurality of transceivers in a third layer. The transceivers in the second layer receive a first random number from the transceiver in the first layer via a directional carrier wave. The transceivers in the third layer receive a second random number from one of the transceivers in the second layer via the carrier wave. The transceiver in the first layer and the transceivers in the second layer share a first secret key based on the first random number, and the one of the transceivers in the second layer and the plurality of transceivers in the third layer share a second secret key based on the second random number.
