A system and method for securing wireless transmissions is provided. A method for transmitting secure messages by a transmitter includes encoding a message with a secrecy code to produce L output codewords, where L is an integer value greater than one. The secrecy code includes a first security code and a second security code. The method also includes transmitting one of the L output codewords to a communications device when a channel quality of a channel between the transmitter and the communications device satisfies a criterion, and repeating the transmitting for any remaining L−1 output codewords.
