Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is such a vital waveform scheme that is utilized in fifth-generation (5G) communication systems as well as the previous one. Since the usage scenarios of 5G are quite wide, the security of those systems is currently an open and critical issue. In this paper, a promising paradigm is proposed for enhancing physical layer (PHY) security in OFDM systems. Two independent secret keys are extracted by legitimate users quantizing the channel measurements. Those key sequences are exchanged via a novel artificial noise (AN) injection method which does not result in a key mismatch. Bit error rate (BER) versus signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) performance of the adversary is still low even if the malicious node has better channel than the legitimate user. After agreement upon the same key, both legitimate parties directly employ key sequence and inter-carrier interference matrix caused by the local oscillators to produce a secrecy matrix. This matrix enables secure communication by inserting it into the transmission design.
