Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) As a countermeasure scheme against an eavesdropper in wireless communications, a key agreement scheme using an electronically steerable parasitic array radiator (ESPAR) antenna and radio propagation characteristics has been proposed, in which a secret key is generated from a received signal strength indicator (RSSI) profile. However, in specific environments, there exist positions where the RSSI profiles of legitimate party and the eavesdropper are highly correlated. Therefore, the secret key of the legitimate parties might be estimated by the eavesdropper in the situation. This paper proposes an improved key generation scheme in which appropriate RSSI values are selected to generate a key and also the carrier frequency to measure the RSSI is switched to enhance the security of the secret key agreement scheme. As the result of simulations, we show that the proposed scheme allows us to decrease the correlation between the RSSI profiles of the legitimate party and the eavesdropper.
