Abstrakt: To secure communications, this article presents a key extraction scheme for smart devices using ambient sounds. Specifically, it is designed for the scenario when smart devices do not have any pre-loaded secrets. Moreover, it can be implemented when smart devices have no access to the online trusted third party or the Network Time Protocol server. In our scheme, smart devices achieve synchronization by making use of ambient sounds. Then, they calculate and obtain the pairing distance and secure distance by applying a band-pass filter. Completing these operations, two smart devices can directly extract a communication key. We analyze the security of our scheme and evaluate the performance of it by implementing the scheme using a few off-the-shelf devices. The experimental results indicate that compared with related schemes, the bit generation rate of our scheme has significant improvement (increases at least 80%), and it can reach 312 bit/s.
