This thesis discusses the importance of the Internet of Things (IoT) and the security of connected devices, with a focus on authentication using Radio Frequency Fingerprinting (RFF). RFF exploits the unique characteristics of devices' radio signals to identify and protect them from adversary attacks. The thesis is divided into three chapters: the first one introduces IoT and RFF, the second one illustrates the methodology of authentication using radio signals, and the third one presents the results of tests conducted on different communication channels and frequencies, analyzing the impact of frequency variations on the Bit Error Rate.
La tesi in esame discute l'importanza dell'Internet of Things (IoT) e della sicurezza dei dispositivi connessi, con un focus sull'autenticazione tramite il Radio Frequency Fingerprinting (RFF). L'RFF sfrutta le caratteristiche uniche dei segnali radio dei dispositivi per identificarli e proteggerli da attacchi avversari. La tesi si suddivide in tre capitoli: il primo introduce l'IoT e l'RFF, il secondo illustra la metodologia di autenticazione tramite segnali radio, e il terzo presenta i risultati dei test condotti su diversi canali di comunicazione e frequenze, analizzando l'impatto delle variazioni di frequenza sul Bit Error Rate.
