Physical layer encryption (PLE) has emerged as a promising technique to secure wireless communications. Different from conventional cryptography implemented at higher layers, PLE exploits the randomness of wireless channels to adjust symbol patterns at the physical layer, by which both data and modulation information can be protected. However, existing PLE schemes face challenges of security and robustness in practical usage. In a slowly varying environment, the constellation variation is negligible, which results in the vulnerability of PLE to the differential attack. Moreover, the decryption error rate of PLE is high when the channel reciprocity is not ideal. To tackle these problems, we exploit data randomness to enhance the dynamics of constellation variations between adjacent frames. Then we utilize analog-based encryption instead of digital-based encryption to dynamically rotate constellation, which reduces quantization loss and improves robustness to channel phase errors. Simulation results verify that the proposed scheme can effectively resist the differential attack and provide approximately a 4.5 dB gain when the bit error ratio (BER) is 0.001.
