Sixth Generation (6G) communication, the successor to 5G, is expected to deliver data rates up to 1 Tbps, enabling ultra-HD streaming and real-time holographic communication. However, security threats, such as hacking and espionage, pose significant challenges. To address this, a dual-key encryption model is proposed, generating two keys—one from randomness and another from a distance metric. The key generation process includes channel probing, preprocessing, quantization, encoding, reconciliation, and amplification. Channel probing assesses parameters; preprocessing prepares data; quantization approximates levels; encoding converts data to binary; and reconciliation corrects quantization errors. The model’s performance, evaluated in terms of key disagreement rate, bit generation rate, key mismatch rate and throughput, demonstrates superior results compared to existing methods. Metrics like latency, reliability, scalability, and security further validate the system’s effectiveness. © 2026, Telecommunications Association Inc.. All rights reserved.
