On the Transmit Beamforming for MIMO Wiretap Channels: Large-System Analysis

Maksym A. Girnyk, Lars Kildehoj Rasmussen, Mikael Skoglund

With the growth of wireless networks, security has become a fundamental issue in wireless communications due to the broadcast nature of these networks. In this work, we consider MIMO wiretap channels in a fast fading environment, for which the overall performance is characterized by the ergodic MIMO secrecy rate. Unfortunately, the direct solution to finding ergodic secrecy rates is prohibitive due to the expectations in the rates expressions in this setting. To overcome this difficulty, we invoke the large-system assumption, which allows a deterministic approximation to the ergodic mutual information. Leveraging results from random matrix theory, we are able to characterize the achievable ergodic secrecy rates. Based on this characterization, we address the problem of covariance optimization at the transmitter. Our numerical results demonstrate a good match between the large-system approximation and the actual simulated secrecy rates, as well as some interesting features of the precoder optimization.

Ensuring Secrecy in MIMO Wiretap Channels with Imperfect CSIT: A Beamforming Approach

A. Mukherjee, Arnold Lee Swindlehurst

In this paper, we investigate transmit beamforming schemes based on artificial interference for physical layer security in a multi-antenna wiretap channel. We consider the case where no information regarding the eavesdropper is present, and we use the signal-to-interference-plus-noise-ratio of a single transmitted data stream as our performance metric. Using a second-order perturbation analysis, we quantify the degradation in performance due to imperfect CSI of the main channel at the transmitter. We then present a robust beamforming scheme that approaches the performance obtained in the perfect CSI case. Numerical simulations verify our analytical performance predictions, and illustrate the benefits of the robust beamforming scheme.

Associating MIMO beamforming with security codes to achieve unconditional communication security

Jie Tang, Hong Wen, Lin Hu +4 more

This study investigates the framework of associating multiple‐input–multiple‐output (MIMO) beamforming with secure code to achieve unconditional secure communications in the wireless passive eavesdropping environment. The schemes are based on a two‐step method under Wyner's wiretap channel model. First, with MIMO transmit beamforming, one can utilise the spatial degree of freedom to cripple eavesdroppers’ interceptions even when he does not know the eavesdropper's channel state information. Consequently, by taking the threshold characteristics of the secure code, the legitimate receivers will continue to extend an average bit error rate advantage over eavesdroppers when they share similar conditions (background noise power and channel gains). By this way, the proposed system could achieve almost zero information obtained by the eavesdroppers while still keeping rather lower error transmissions for the main channel. A profound theoretical analysis for the MIMO advantage channel and the exact closed‐form expressions of secrecy outage probability for the secure code joint system are presented. The authors launch extensive experiments to verify the proposed security systems and demonstrate its feasibility and implement ability.
