Abstract

This paper studies the physical layer security (PLS) in an underlay cognitive radio (CR) network. Under an interference constraint set by the primary user, we propose a secure transmission scheme from a secondary source to a secondary destination in the presence of spatially random eavesdroppers, the distribution of which is modeled as a homogeneous Possion point process (PPP). In addition to transmitting the message signal, the secondary source is allowed to use part of its power to transmit jamming signals in order to interfere the eavesdroppers. Assuming that the secondary destination has the knowledge of the jamming signals, we derive the closed-form expression for the connection outage probability and an easy-to-compute expression for the secrecy outage probability to characterize the reliability and the security performance, respectively. Moreover, we determine the optimal power allocation factor and wiretap code rates which maximize the secrecy throughput of the wiretap channel under secrecy outage probability constraint.

Secure Transmission Design for Cognitive Radio Networks With Poisson Distributed Eavesdroppers

Xiaoming Xu, Biao He, Weiwei Yang +2 more

In this paper, we study physical layer security in an underlay cognitive radio (CR) network. We consider the problem of secure communication between a secondary transmitter-receiver pair in the presence of randomly distributed eavesdroppers under an interference constraint set by the primary user. For different channel knowledge assumptions at the transmitter, we design four transmission protocols to achieve the secure transmission in the CR network. We give a comprehensive performance analysis for each protocol in terms of transmission delay, security, reliability, and the overall secrecy throughput. Furthermore, we determine the optimal design parameter for each transmission protocol by solving the optimization problem of maximizing the secrecy throughput subject to both security and reliability constraints. Numerical results illustrate the performance comparison between different transmission protocols.

On the Secrecy Analysis of Dual-Hop Underlay Multi-Source CRNs with Multi-Eavesdroppers and a Multi-Antenna Destination

Mounia Bouabdellah, Faissal El Bouanani, Daniel Benevides da Costa +4 more

In this paper, the physical layer security in cognitive radio networks (CRNs) is investigated. We consider an underlay relay assisted CRN consisting of multiple secondary sources, multiple-antenna destination, a single relay, and multiple eavesdroppers. The destination node performs the maximal-ratio combining under uncorrelated Rayleigh fading channels. In more details, we consider, a secondary source is randomly selected to transmit its data, and a jammer is chosen from the remaining source nodes to send a jamming signal to the eavesdroppers. The closed-form expression of the secrecy outage probability is derived, based on the statistical characteristics of the communication channels, under the primary user's quality of service constraint. The derived analysis gives deep insights into the impact of network parameters on the performance of on the secrecy outage performance. Analytic results are corroborated through Monte Carlo simulation.

Secure transmission in the random cognitive radio networks with secrecy guard zone and artificial noise

Yueming Cai, Xiaoming Xu, Weiwei Yang

The authors study the secure transmission design in random cognitive radio networks where the primary users, the secondary users and the eavesdroppers are randomly distributed according to Poisson point processes. Centring on this scenario, the authors propose a simple and decentralised secure transmission scheme by jointly incorporating the secrecy guard zone and artificial noise. In particular, this transmission scheme helps to enhance secrecy performance via differentiating between secondary transmitters in accordance with the eavesdropping environment. They then analyse the connection outage and secrecy outage performance of the secondary network, based on which they obtain the closed‐form expression of the secrecy throughput. They further determine the optimal transmission power of the secondary transmitters and the optimal power allocation between the information‐bearing signal and artificial noise to maximise the secrecy throughput of the secondary network under primary and secondary outage constraints. The authors’ analysis highlights that introducing secrecy guard zone provides better security performance, and artificial noise performs as additional interference to insert a control between the reliability and security. Numerical results show how the system parameters affect the achievable maximum secrecy throughput, the optimal transmission power and the optimal power allocation between the information‐bearing signal and the artificial noise.

Secrecy outage analysis on underlay cognitive radio using selection combining

Tan, You-yu, Pan +3 more

Secure data transmission in future high-capacity high-coverage multi-tier hierarchical networks, for which cognitive radio(CR) has emerged as an essential recipe, is of utmost importance. This paper investigates the secrecy outage performance of selection combining(SC) in CR networks(CRNs) over Rayleigh fading channels. In a single-input multiple-output(SIMO) wiretap channel, a secondary user transmits confidential messages to another secondary user, which is equipped with( 1)B Bn n ≥ antennas. Meanwhile, a passive eavesdropper, which is equipped with( 1)E En n ≥ antennas, intends to overhear the messages. Both the legal receiver and the eavesdropper adopt SC scheme to process the received multiple signals. The secondary transmitter uses the underlay strategy to guarantee the quality of service of the primary user without spectrum sensing. Compared to the work proposed by Maged Elkashlan et al. in Ref. [1], we present an alternative method to derive the closed-form expression for the secrecy outage probability(SOP) and develop a simplified SOP when the maximal transmit power at the secondary user is sufficiently high. Our results reveal the impact of the primary network on the secondary network with a multi-antenna wiretap channel and simulations are conducted to validate the accuracy of our proposed analytical models.

Secure transmission using decode-and-forward protocol for underlay cognitive radio networks

Tri Nhu Do, Beongku An

In this paper, we study the physical layer security for underlay cognitive radio network in the presence of an eavesdropper that tries to intercept the secondary transmission. Specifically, a transmission at each hop uses a same frequency band of a primary user as long as the interference that caused by the secondary transmission at a primary receiver does not excess a maximum tolerable interference level. We investigate the secrecy outage probability (SOP) for a cognitive decode-and-forward (DF) relay network. Moreover, we drive a closed-form expression of the SOP of the considered system. Simulation results validate our theoretical results under three distinct cases as follows: the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the main link between a secondary transmitter and a corresponding receiver is, respectively, smaller, equal to, or larger than the SNR of the eavesdropper link between the same secondary transmitter and the eavesdropper.
