Covert Information Mapped Spatial and Directional Modulation toward Secure Wireless Transmission

Recently, the concept of spatial and direction modulation (SDM) has been developed to reap the advantages of both spatial modulation (SM) and directional modulation (DM). On the one hand, DM ensures the transmission security at the expected direction. On the other hand, the structure of SM-aided dis...
