• Authors: B. R. Manoj, Meysam Sadeghi, Erik G. Larsson
• Abstract summary: We show that adversarial attacks can break DL-based power allocation in the downlink of a massive multiple-input-multiple-output (maMIMO) network. We benchmark the performance of these attacks and show that with a small perturbation in the input of the neural network (NN), the white-box attacks can result in infeasible solutions up to 86%.

• Abstract: Deep learning (DL) is becoming popular as a new tool for many applications in wireless communication systems. However, for many classification tasks (e.g., modulation classification) it has been shown that DL-based wireless systems are susceptible to adversarial examples; adversarial examples are well-crafted malicious inputs to the neural network (NN) with the objective to cause erroneous outputs. In this paper, we extend this to regression problems and show that adversarial attacks can break DL-based power allocation in the downlink of a massive multiple-input-multiple-output (maMIMO) network. Specifically, we extend the fast gradient sign method (FGSM), momentum iterative FGSM, and projected gradient descent adversarial attacks in the context of power allocation in a maMIMO system. We benchmark the performance of these attacks and show that with a small perturbation in the input of the NN, the white-box attacks can result in infeasible solutions up to 86%. Furthermore, we investigate the performance of black-box attacks. All the evaluations conducted in this work are based on an open dataset and NN models, which are publicly available.

  Convolutional neural networks (CNN) define the state-of-the-art solution on many perceptual tasks. Current CNN approaches largely remain vulnerable against adversarial perturbations of the input that have been crafted specifically to fool the system. We propose a simple and light-weight detector, which leverages recent findings on the relation between networks' local intrinsic dimensionality (LID) and adversarial attacks.

  We use Deep Generative Networks (DGNs) with a novel training mechanism to eliminate the distribution gap. The trained DGNs align the distribution of adversarial samples with clean ones for the target DNNs by translating pixel values. Our strategy demonstrates its unique effectiveness and generality against black-box attacks.

  We propose universal adversarial perturbation (UAP)-crafting methods as white-box and black-box attacks. We show that the adversarial success rate can achieve up to 60% and 40%, respectively. The proposed UAP-based attacks make a more practical and realistic approach as compared to classical white-box attacks.
