Abstract

In this paper we investigate the performance of a cooperative network in the presence of an eavesdropper (Eve). Alice and Bob communicate with the help of a relay, which can operate either in half-duplex (HD) or full-duplex (FD) mode. We account for the self interference at the relay when operating under FD mode. Our analysis focus in the case that the CSI of Eve is not available at Alice. Thus, we derive closed-form expressions for secrecy outage probability. Our results allow us to compare the performance of FD and HD cooperative scenarios under secrecy constraints and, despite the additional interference at the relay, show the advantages of FD relaying over HD. In addition, we also show that a cooperative network is more vulnerable if Eve is closer to Alice than to the relay.

Physical layer security analysis for cooperative communication with full-duplex relaying under Nakagami-m fading model

Yohannes Jote Tolossa, Giuseppe Thadeu Freitas de Abreu

We characterised the physical layer security of a three terminal cooperative network with full-duplex relaying under Nakagami-m channel analytically and through simulation. An eavesdropper also coexists within the system at an arbitrary distance from the transmitter. Using secrecy outage probability as a metric to characterise the secrecy performance, integral expression for the corresponding outage probability of the relevant communication link is derived. Furthermore, the secrecy outage probability with half-duplex relay is also analysed. Simulation results show that cooperative communication with FD relay has less secrecy outage even with the presence of residual self-interference than HD relay.

On the Performance of Secure Full-Duplex Relaying under Composite Fading Channels

Hirley Alves, Glauber Brante, Richard D. Souza +2 more

We assume a full-duplex (FD) cooperative network subject to hostile attacks and undergoing composite fading channels. We focus on two scenarios: a) the transmitter has full CSI, for which we derive closed-form expressions for the average secrecy rate; and b) the transmitter only knows the CSI of the legitimate nodes, for which we obtain closed-form expressions for the secrecy outage probability. We show that secure FD relaying is feasible, even under strong self-interference and in the presence of sophisticated multiple antenna eavesdropper.

Secure Communications With a Full-Duplex Relay Network Under Residual Self-Interference

Junguk Park, Sangseok Yun, Il‐Min Kim +1 more

This letter studies secure communications in a full-duplex relay (FDR) network when an eavesdropper overhears communications between legitimate parties. In a FDR network, both the amplify-and-forward relay and the destination operate in full-duplex for the purpose of achieving a higher secrecy rate and/or improving security. In particular, the destination is capable of receiving the relayed signal and simultaneously emitting a cooperative jamming signal. This work is motivated by an intriguing question: how much residual self-interference (SI) in a FDR network is allowed to achieve a superiority of secrecy performance over conventional half-duplex relay (HDR) networks? To answer the question, the secrecy outage probability (SOP) of the FDR network is derived as a function of residual SI. The analytic results enable us to compare the SOPs of existing HDR networks and the FDR network at various levels of residual SI. In addition, this work allows one to opportunistically select either FD or HD, which leads to a significant performance improvement.

Secrecy Outage Probability Analysis for Full-Duplex Relaying Networks Based on Relay Selection Schemes

Qingfeng Ding, Mengxia Liu, Yuqian Deng

Considering existing eavesdroppers, this paper analyzes the secrecy outage probability (SOP) of the full-duplex (FD) relaying network with imperfect channel state information (CSI), where the decode-and-forward relay protocol is adopted. To enhance the physical-layer security, two relay selection schemes are proposed. The first scheme uses the maximum-minimum principle to select the optimal relay. The other selection scheme is based on partial signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio. Then, the tight closed-form approximations of the SOP are obtained for three special CSI cases, respectively. Moreover, based on these approximated results, the effects of some system parameters are analyzed for the SOP of the relay system, including the CSI error, the number of relays, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the eavesdropper, and the residual self-interference caused by the FD model. The numerical results show that at low SNR of the eavesdropper, residual self-interference has a significantly impact on SOP, while at high SNR of the eavesdropper, this effect is negligible. In addition, the SOP of FD model is always superior to the half-duplex (HD) model when the number of relays changes.

Secrecy rate with friendly full-duplex relay

Saeedeh Parsaeefard, Tho Le‐Ngoc

This paper considers the use of a friendly full-duplex (FD) relay to increase the secrecy rate over a fading channel between the legitimate source and destination in the presence of a naive or informed eavesdropper. Naive eavesdropper can only decode the received signals either from the source or from the relay, while informed eavesdropper can overhear signals transmitted from both the source and relay. Accordingly, we compare the achievable secrecy rates of FD relay with traditional half-duplex (HD) relay in terms of the channel state information (CSI) between nodes, eavesdropper types, and the self-interference (SI) in FD-Relay. We consider the non-convex power allocation problems for the developed FD-relay to maximize the secrecy rate under the power constraints and develop an efficient iterative algorithm based on the difference-of-two-concave-functions (DC) programming. The analytical and simulation results confirm that FD relay offers significant improvements in the secrecy rate over the HD-Relay.
