Deep Learning Based Precoding for the MIMO Gaussian Wiretap Channel

Abstract

A novel precoding method based on supervised deep neural networks is introduced for the multiple-input multiple-output Gaussian wiretap channel. The proposed deep learning (DL)-based precoding learns the input covariance matrix through offline training over a large set of input channels and their corresponding covariance matrices for efficient, reliable, and secure transmission of information. Furthermore, by spending time in offline training, this method remarkably reduces the computation complexity in real-time applications. Compared to traditional precoding methods, the proposed DL-based precoding is significantly faster and reaches near-capacity secrecy rates. DL based precoding is also more robust than transitional precoding approaches to the number of antennas at the eavesdropper. This new approach to precoding is promising in applications in which delay and complexity are critical.

ASAP: Adversarial Learning Based Secure Autoprecoder Design for MIMO Wiretap Channels

Xinyao Wang, Zhong Zheng, Zesong Fei

To avoid the non-convex and complicated secrecy rate optimization in the multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) system, deep learning (DL) is introduced in the secure precoder design recently. However, existing works neglect the eavesdropper with learning capacity, which is constructed by neural networks (NNs) and capable of enhancing its receiver NN according to the optimal secure transmitter. In this letter, we propose an adversarial learning-based secure autoprecoder (ASAP) for the MIMO wiretap channels, where the modulation and the precoder are jointly optimized and adversarially trained with the eavesdropping receiver. Numerical results verify the convergence of the ASAP method, which enables an optimal trade-off between the information secrecy and reliability. Moreover, joint optimization is especially important against the evolved eavesdropper.

Secure Precoding in MIMO-NOMA: A Deep Learning Approach

Jordan Pauls, Mojtaba Vaezi

A novel signaling design for secure transmission over two-user multiple-input multiple-output non-orthogonal multiple access channel using deep neural networks (DNNs) is proposed. The goal of the DNN is to form the covariance matrix of users’ signals such that the message of each user is transmitted reliably while being confidential from its counterpart. The proposed DNN linearly precodes each user’s signal before superimposing them and achieves near-optimal performance with significantly lower run time. Simulation results show that the proposed models reach about 98% of the secrecy capacity rates. The spectral efficiency of the DNN precoder is much higher than that of existing analytical linear precoders,–e.g., generalized singular value decomposition–and its on-the-fly complexity is several times less than the existing iterative methods.

Deep Neural Network Based Precoding for Wiretap Channels With Finite Alphabet Inputs

Mücahit Gümüş, Tolga M. Duman

We consider secure transmission over multi-input multi-output multi-antenna eavesdropper (MIMOME) wiretap channels with finite alphabet inputs. We use a linear precoder to maximize the secrecy rate, which benefits from the generalized singular value decomposition to obtain independent streams and exploits the function approximation abilities of deep neural networks (DNNs) for solving the required power allocation problem. It is demonstrated that the DNN learns the optimal power allocation without any performance degradation compared to the conventional technique with a significant reduction in complexity.

Optimal Beamforming for Gaussian MIMO Wiretap Channels With Two Transmit Antennas

Mojtaba Vaezi, Wonjae Shin, H. Vincent Poor

A Gaussian multiple-input multiple-output wiretap channel in which the eavesdropper and legitimate receiver are equipped with arbitrary numbers of antennas and the transmitter has two antennas is studied in this paper. The input covariance matrix that achieves the secrecy capacity is determined. In particular, it is shown that the secrecy capacity of this channel can be achieved by linear precoding. Precoding and power allocation schemes that maximize the achievable secrecy rate, and thus achieve the secrecy capacity, are developed. The secrecy capacity is then compared with the achievable secrecy rate of generalized singular value decomposition (GSVD)-based precoding, which is the best previously proposed technique for this problem. Numerical results demonstrate that substantial gain can be obtained in secrecy rate between the proposed and GSVD-based precodings.

On the optimal precoding for MIMO Gaussian wire-tap channels

We consider the problem of finding secrecy rate of a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wire-tap channel. A transmitter, a legitimate receiver, and an eavesdropper are all equipped with multiple antennas. The channel states from the transmitter to the legitimate user and to the eavesdropper are assumed to be known at the transmitter. In this contribution, we address the problem of finding the optimal precoder/transmit covariance matrix maximizing the secrecy rate of the given wiretap channel. The problem formulation is shown to be equivalent to a difference of convex functions programming problem and an efficient algorithm for addressing this problem is developed.
