Abstract

In this paper, the secrecy analysis of physical layer when both the main and wiretap channels undergo $κ-μ$ shadowed fading channel is investigated. In particular, the average secrecy capacity (ASC), secure outage probability (SOP), the lower bound of SOP (SOP$^L$), and the probability of strictly positive secrecy capacity (SPSC) are derived by using the classic Wyner's wiretap model. Two different scenarios for the fading parameters, i.e., $μ$ and $m$ which represents the shadowing impact have been studied. These parameters are chosen first as arbitrary numbers, thus the performance metrics are expressed in single infinite series with multivariate Meijer $G$-function. In the second scenario, both the aforementioned fading parameters are assumed to be integer numbers in order to obtain the derived results in simple exact closed-form analytic mathematically tractable expressions. The numerical results of this analysis are verified via Monte Carlo simulations.

Secrecy Performance Analysis of SIMO Systems Over Correlated $\kappa$ –$\mu$ Shadowed Fading Channels

Jiangfeng Sun, Hongxia Bie, Xingwang Li +3 more

In this paper, the secrecy performance of single-input-multiple-output systems over correlated κ-μ shadowed fading channels is investigated. In particular, based on the classic Wyner's wiretap model, we derive analytical expressions for secure outage probability (SOP) and the probability of strictly positive secrecy capacity (SPSC) over correlated κ-μ shadowed fading channels. In order to further study the impact of channel parameters on the secrecy performance, novel SOP and the probability of SPSC over independent and identically distributed κ-μ shadowed fading channels are also obtained. In addition, we discuss the asymptotic expressions of the SOP and the SPSC. The match between the analytical results and simulations is excellent for all parameters under considerations. It is interesting to find that the results show that when the signal-to-noise ratio of the main channel is lower than that of the eavesdropping channel, the larger value of correlation coefficient is helpful to improve the secrecy performance and vice versa.

Secrecy Capacity of Physical Layer over $\kappa-\mu$ /Gamma Composite Fading Channel

Rupender Singh, Meenakshi Rawat

Rapid developments of the emerging wireless network applications such as 5G, IoT and device-to-device (D2D) systems raise the diversity of challenges in physical layer security (PLS). In the present work, we examine Wyner's wiretap composite multipath/shadowing fading channel model and provide analysis for PLS secrecy performance. We consider a generic single-input and single-output (SISO) system where both the main and eavesdropper channels are modeled by κ-μ /gamma composite fading channel. In particular, the lower bound of secure outage probability (SOPL) and strictly positive secrecy capacity (SPSC) are obtained in closed-form. We also conduct the analysis for average secrecy capacity (ASC) in heavy shadowing and derive analytical expression in closed-form.

Exact closed‐form capacity and outage probability of physical layer security in shadowed fading channels

Hussien Al‐Hmood, Hamed Saffa Al-Raweshidy

In this study, the secrecy performance of physical layer when both the main and wiretap channels undergo shadowed fading conditions is analysed. In particular, the average secrecy capacity, secure outage probability (SOP), the lower bound of SOP (SOP ), and the probability of strictly positive secrecy capacity are derived by using the classic Wyner's wiretap model. Two different scenarios for the fading parameters, namely, and m , which represent the real extension of the number of the multipath clusters and the shadowing index, respectively, have been studied. These parameters are chosen first as arbitrary numbers, thus the performance metrics are given in exact closed‐form in terms of the extended generalised bivariate Fox's H ‐function that has been widely implemented in the open literature using various software packages. In the second scenario, both the fading parameters are assumed to be integer numbers to obtain the derived results in simple exact closed‐form mathematically tractable expressions in terms of some analytic functions. The numerical results of this analysis are verified via the Monte Carlo simulations.

On the Secrecy Capacity of Fisher-Snedecor F Fading Channels

Osamah S. Badarneh, Paschalis C. Sofotasios, Sami Muhaidat +3 more

The performance of physical-layer security of the classic Wyner's wiretap model over Fisher-Snedecor F composite fading channels is considered in this work. Specifically, the main channel (i.e., between the source and the legitimate destination) and the eavesdropper's channel (i.e., between the source and the illegitimate destination) are assumed to experience independent quasi-static Fisher-Snedecor F fading conditions, which have been shown to be encountered in realistic wireless transmission scenarios in conventional and emerging communication systems. In this context, exact closed-form expressions for the average secrecy capacity (ASC) and the probability of non-zero secrecy capacity (PNSC) are derived. Additionally, an asymptotic analytical expression for the ASC is presented. The impact of shadowing and multipath fading on the secrecy performance is investigated. Our results show that increasing the fading parameter of the main channel and/or the shadowing parameter of the eavesdropper's channel improves the secrecy performance. The analytical results are compared with Monte-Carlo simulations to validate the analysis.

Security Performance Analysis of Physical Layer over Fisher-Snedecor $\mathcal{F}$ Fading Channels

Hussien Al‐Hmood, Hamed Saffa Al-Raweshidy

In this letter, the performance analysis of physical layer security over Fisher-Snedecor $\mathcal{F}$ fading channels is investigated. In particular, the average secrecy capacity (ASC), the secure outage probability (SOP), the lower bound of the SOP (SOP$^L$), and the strictly positive secure capacity (SPSC) are derived in exact closed-from expressions. The Fisher-Snedecor $\mathcal{F}$ fading channel is a composite of multipath/shadowed fading that are represented by the Nakagami-$m$ distribution. Moreover, it provides close results to the practical measurements than the generalised $K$ ($K_G$) fading channels. To validate our analysis, the numerical results are affirmed by the Monte Carlo simulations.

Physical-Layer Security Analysis over M-Distributed Fading Channels

Sheng‐Hong Lin, Rong-Rong Lu, Xian-Tao Fu +2 more

In this paper, the physical layer security over the M-distributed fading channel is investigated. Initially, an exact expression of secrecy outage probability (SOP) is derived, which has an integral term. To get a closed-form expression, a lower bound of SOP is obtained. After that, the exact expression for the probability of strictly positive secrecy capacity (SPSC) is derived, which is in closed-form. Finally, an exact expression of ergodic secrecy capacity (ESC) is derived, which has two integral terms. To reduce its computational complexity, a closed-from expression for the lower bound of ESC is obtained. As special cases of M-distributed fading channels, the secure performance of the K, exponential, and Gamma-Gamma fading channels are also derived, respectively. Numerical results show that all theoretical results match well with Monte-Carlo simulation results. Specifically, when the average signal-to-noise ratio of main channel is larger than 40 dB, the relative errors for the lower bound of SOP, the probability of SPSC, and the lower bound of ESC are less than 1.936%, 6.753%, and 1.845%, respectively. This indicates that the derived theoretical expressions can be directly used to evaluate system performance without time-consuming simulations. Moreover, the derived results regarding parameters that influence the secrecy performance will enable system designers to quickly determine the optimal available parameter choices when facing different security risks.
