In multicast communication scenario, the desired users are decomposed into M groups to receive private M useful data from the transmitter, while eavesdroppers (Eves) group tries to intercept. Since wireless security system consists of authentication and secure transmission, we propose directional modulation (DM) artificial noise (AN) matrix-aided Costas sequence (CS) matrix frequency diverse array (FDA) in multicast precoding systems in this paper. Specifically, we utilize the CS matrix for desired groups authentication (i.e., group identity), and it is shared via a low-speed forward link in advance. Next, we design AN matrix-aided FDA to offer robust antieavesdropping method based on leakage concept. Furthermore, we devise secrecy metrics, namely, secrecy outage probability (SOP), asymptotic Eve’s detectability error probability, and average useful data leakage rate, based on the scenario where Eve’s instantaneous channel state information (CSI) is unavailable. In addition, we numerically analyze the proposed energy beamforming focusing and evaluate the secrecy energy efficiency. Via simulation results, the proposed scheme gives important insights into how to design and measure secrecy performances in multicast scenarios.

Abstract Secure transmission is essential for future non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) system. This paper investigates relay-antenna selection (RAS) to enhance physical-layer security (PLS) of cooperative NOMA system in the presence of an eavesdropper, where multiple antennas are deployed at the relays, the users, and the eavesdropper. In order to reduce expense on radio frequency (RF) chains, selection combining (SC) is employed at both the relays and the users, whilst the eavesdropper employs either maximal-ratio combining (MRC) or selection combining (SC) to process the received signals. Under the condition that the channel state information (CSI) of the eavesdropping channel is available or unavailable, two e↵ective relay-antenna selection schemes are proposed. Additionally, the closed-form expressions of secrecy outage probability (SOP) are derived for the proposed relay-antenna selection schemes. In order to gain more deep insights on the derived results, the asymptotic performance of the derived SOP is analyzed. In simulations, it is demonstrated that the theoretical results match well with the simulation results and the SOP of the proposed schemes is less than that of the conventional orthogonal multiple access (OMA) scheme obviously.

Frequency diverse array- (FDA-) based directional modulation (DM) is a promising technique for physical layer security, due to its angle-range dependent transmit beampattern. However, the existing schemes are not suitable for the broadcasting scenario, where there are multiple legitimate users (LUs) to receive the confidential message. In this paper, we propose a novel random frequency diverse array- (RFDA-) based DM scheme to realize the point to multi-point broadcasting secure transmission in both angle and range dimension. In the first stage, the beamforming vector is designed to maximize the artificial noise (AN) power, while satisfying the power requirement of LUs for transmitting the confidential message simultaneously. In the second stage, the AN projection matrix is obtained by maximizing signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) at the LUs. The proposed scheme only broadcasts the confidential message to the locations of LUs while the other regions are covered by AN, which promotes the security of the wireless broadcasting system. Moreover, it is energy efficient since the power of each LU is under accurate control. Numerical simulations are presented to validate the performance of the proposed scheme.

Millimeter-wave (mmWave) communication is one of the key enabling technologies for fifth generation (5G) mobile networks. In this paper, we study the problem of secure communication in a mmWave wiretap network, where directional beamforming and link blockages are taken into account. For the secure transmission in the presence of spatially random eavesdroppers, an adaptive transmission scheme is adopted, for which sector secrecy guard zone and artificial noise (AN) are employed to enhance secrecy performance. When there exists no eavesdroppers within the sector secrecy guard zone, the transmitter only transmits information-bearing signal, and, conversely, AN along with information-bearing signal are transmitted. The closed-form expressions for secrecy outage probability (SOP), connection outage probability (COP) and secrecy throughput are derived under stochastic geometry. Then, we evaluate the effect of the sector secrecy guard zone and AN on the secrecy performance. Our results reveal that the application of the sector secrecy guard zone and AN can significantly improve the security of the system, and blockages also can be utilized to improve secrecy performance. An easy choice of transmit power and power allocation factor is provided for achieving higher secrecy throughput. Furthermore, increasing the density of eavesdroppers not always deteriorates the secrecy performance due to the use of the sector secrecy guard zone and AN.

This paper studies the impacts of antenna selection algorithms in decode-and-forward (DF) cooperative nonorthogonal multiple access (NOMA) networks, where the secure information from the relay can be overheard by an eavesdropper in the networks. In order to ensure the secure transmission, an optimal antenna selection algorithm is proposed to choose one best relay’s antenna to assist the secure transmission. We study the impact of antenna selection on the system secure communication through deriving the analytical expression of the secrecy outage probability along with the asymptotic expression in the high regime of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and main-to-eavesdropper ratio (MER). From the analytical and asymptotic expressions, we find that the system secure performance is highly dependent on the system parameters such as the number of antennas at the relay, SNR, and MER. In particular, the secrecy diversity order of the system is equal to the antenna number, when the interference from the second user is limited.

Mobile edge computing (MEC) is becoming more and more popular because of improving computing power in virtual reality, augmented reality, unmanned driving, and other fields. This paper investigates a nonorthogonal multiple access- (NOMA-) based MEC system, which is under imperfect channel state information (ipCSI). In this system model, a pair of users offloads their tasks to the MEC server with the existence of an eavesdropper (Eve). To evaluate the impact of Eve on the performance of the NOMA-MEC system, the secrecy outage probability (SOP) expressions for two users with the conditions of imperfect CSI and perfect channel state information (pCSI) are derived. In addition, both throughput and energy efficiency are discussed in the delay-limited transmission mode. Simulation results reveal that (1) due to the influence of channel estimation errors, the secrecy outage behaviors of two users under ipCSI conditions are worse than those of users with pCSI; (2) the secrecy performance of NOMA-MEC is superior to orthogonal multiple access- (OMA-) aided MEC systems; and (3) the NOMA-MEC systems have the ability to attain better system throughput and energy efficiency compared with OMA-MEC.

As Internet of Things (IoT) has boomed in recent years, many security issues have also been exposed. Focusing on physical layer security in wireless Internet of Things network communication, a series of security methods have been widely studied. Nevertheless, cooperative jamming methods in physical layer security to fight against collusive eavesdroppers have not been thoroughly studied yet. In this article, we study a cooperative-jamming-based physical layer secure transmission scheme for Internet of Things wireless networks in the presence of collusive eavesdroppers. We design a cooperative jamming strategy without knowing the channel state information of eavesdroppers. Considering the cooperation of multiple nodes with multiple antennas, this strategy can maximize the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio at an actuator (legitimate receiver). Meanwhile, the generated cooperative jamming signals can reduce the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio at eavesdroppers. To explore the theoretical security performance of our strategy, we perform a secrecy outage probability analysis and an asymptotic analysis. In the cases of cooperative jamming and without cooperative jamming, the closed-form expressions of the secrecy outage probability are deduced, and the influence of system parameters on the secrecy outage probability becomes more intuitive through a strict mathematical asymptotic behavior analysis. In addition, considering the energy limitation of Internet of Things devices, we propose a power allocation algorithm to minimize the total transmission power given the security requirements. The numerical results show the effectiveness of our schemes and are consistent with the theoretical analysis.

This paper investigates the secure transmission for buffer-aided relay networks in the Internet of Things (IoT) in the presence of multiple passive eavesdroppers. For security enhancement, we adopt the max-link relay selection policy and propose three secure transmission schemes: (1) non-jamming (NJ); (2) source cooperative jamming (SCJ); and (3) source cooperative jamming with optimal power allocation (SCJ-OPA). Moreover, to analyze the secrecy performance comprehensively, two eavesdropping scenarios, i.e., non-colluding eavesdroppers (NCE) and colluding eavesdroppers (CE) are considered. Based on this, by modeling the dynamic buffer state transition as a Markov chain, we derive the exact closed-form expressions of the secrecy outage probability, the average secrecy throughput, and the end-to-end delay for each schemes. The analytical analysis and simulation shows that the SCJ-OPA scheme achieves similar performance as the NJ scheme when the total transmit power is small. On the other hand, when the transmit power is high, the performance achieved by SCJ-OPA is similar to that of SCJ. Thereby, the SCJ-OPA scheme can achieve better performance across the entire total transmit power, which makes up the defects of NJ and SCJ exactly.
