The channel estimation error seriously affects the key generation consistency of two communicating parties in the process of wireless key generation, a multi-bit quantization wireless key generation scheme under imperfect channel estimation condition was proposed. Firstly, in order to investigate the influence of imperfect channel estimation on wireless key generation, a channel estimation error model was established. Then, a multi-bit key quantizer with guard band was designed, and the performance of wireless key was able to be improved by optimizing the quantization parameters. The closed-form expressions of Key Disagreement Rate (KDR) and Effective Key Generation Rate (EKGR) were derived, and the relationships between pilot signal power, quantization order, guard bands and the above two key generation performance indicators were revealed. The simulation results show that, increasing the transmit pilot power can effectively reduce the KDR, and with the increasing of quantization order, the key generation rate can be improved, but the KDR also increases. Moreover, increasing the quantization order and choosing the appropriate guard band size at the same time can effectively reduce KDR.
