Abstract
This paper presents an investigation of the physical layer secrecy outage performance of the cooperative system in the typical four-node (source, relay, destination, and eavesdropper) scenario with imperfect channel state information (CSI). Specifically, we consider the single-input multiple-output wiretap channels, where the source (S) and the relay (R) are equipped with a single antenna, and the destination (D) and the eavesdropper (E) are equipped with multiple antennas. D and E adopt maximal ratio combining to process multiple copies of signals, and the relay adopts decode-and-forward (DF) and randomize-and-forward (RF) schemes to forward the received signal to the destination. E overhears the information transmitted over both the S-R and R-D links. We derive the closed-form and asymptotic expressions for the secrecy outage probability under both the DF and RF schemes with imperfect CSI, respectively, the accuracy of which is verified by simulation results.
