摘要：This paper describes an implementation of location-based encryption using a public key cryptosystem based on the rank error correcting codes. In any code based cryptosystem, public and private keys are in the form of matrices based over the finite field. This work proposes an algorithm for calculating public and private key matrices based on the geographic location of the intended receiver. The main idea is to calculate a location specific parity check matrix and then corresponding public key. Data is encrypted using public key. Some information about the parity check matrix along with other private keys are sent to receiver as cipher-text, encrypted with another instance of the public or GPT cryptosystem using public key of the receiver. The proposed scheme also introduces a method of calculating different parity check matrix for each user.
