Abstract :
Wyner´s results for discrete memoryless wire-tap channels are extended to the Gaussian wire-tap channel. It is shown that the secrecy capacity Cs is the difference between the capacities of the main and wire.tap channels. It is further shown that Rd= Cs is the upper boundary of the achievable rate-equivocation region.
