Abstract

While half and full duplex wireless enabled cyber physical systems (CPSs) are gaining more importance and research attention, maintaining the security of CPS systems remains a vital challenge. The broadcast nature of wireless channels makes it possible for unauthorized receivers, called eavesdroppers, to capture the information signal. Wireless physical layer security techniques aim to harden the secrecy characteristics of wireless systems, decreasing the signal quality of a prospective eavesdropper. This paper considers a joint optimization of artificial noise (AN) signal and transmit filter for the information signals in order to achieve a target secrecy level. As eavesdropping attacks are very critical threats in CPS networks, and the need for high secrecy techniques remains valid. The proposed framework includes a scenario with two multi-antenna legitimate parties and a multi-antenna eavesdropper node (or multiple cooperating eavesdroppers). The transmit filter and AN signal are jointly optimized by the transmitters, where receiver nodes can make use of optimal transmit filters. The problem is derived for the cases where the legitimate CPS nodes perform full duplex and half duplex transmissions. The impact of channel estimation errors and self interference are also discussed.

Transmit Filter and Multi Secrecy Aided Optimization with DFE for Duplex Systems

Shilpa Mariam Saji, M.Sc Surya Sumpeno St

This paper focuses on the problem of secure transmission in wireless communication, especially in the physical layer. In Cyber-Physical systems, interconnected devices under wireless environments facilitate information exchange but challenge network security. In order to proliferate secrecy, with the assumption of channel reciprocity, the legitimate users share the same channel which is independent of the channels between the legitimate users and the eavesdropper. It is because of the broadcast nature of the wireless medium makes it vulnerable to two types of major attacks denial of service, and information leakage. Here the security may decrease due to the correlation between the generated secret bits. To address these challenges, this framework includes two multi-antenna legitimate parties and a multi-antenna eavesdropper node. In order to maximize the secrecy rate, interleaver along with jointly optimized transmit filter and multi secrecy techniques are used at transmitting section. Optimum receive filter and Equalization technique are used at the receiver section. At last, this paper provides channel estimation errors and self-interference implemented for both duplex systems. So combining with them is a kind of key technology in future physical layer wireless communication.

A physical layer security scheme for full-duplex communication systems with residual self-interference and non-eavesdropping CSI

Weijia Lei, Yang Zhou, Lin Xiuzhen

We discuss the physical layer security scheme in the Full-Duplex (FD) MIMO point-to-point two-way communication system with residual self-interference, in which legitimate nodes send confidential information and null space Artificial Noise (AN) while receiving information. Because the Channel State Information (CSI) of the eavesdropper is unavailable, we optimize the covariance matrices of the information signal as well as the allocation of the antenna for transmitting and receiving to minimize the signal power consumption under the target rate constraint. As a result, the power of AN is maximized within the limit of total power, so the interception capability of the eavesdropper is suppressed as much as possible. Since self-interference cannot be completely eliminated, the optimization process of one legitimate node depends on the optimization result of the other. By substituting self-interference power in the secrecy rate formula with its average value, the joint optimization process at the two nodes is transformed into two separate and solvable optimization processes. Then, the Water-Filling Algorithm (WFA) and bisection algorithm are used to get the optimal covariance matrices of the signal. Furthermore, we derive the theoretical lower bound of ergodic achievable secrecy rate under rayleigh channels to evaluate the performance of the scheme. The simulation results show that the theoretical derivation is correct, and the actual achievable rate is very close to the target rate, which means that the approximation in the optimization is feasible. The results also show that secrecy transmission can be realized because a considerable secrecy rate can be achieved.

Secure Cooperative Network With Multi-Antenna Full-Duplex Receiver

Fatemeh Jafarian, Zahra Mobini, Mohammadali Mohammadi

In this paper, the physical-layer security of a cooperative wireless system with multi-antenna full-duplex (FD) destination is examined. More specifically, we consider a cooperative transmission scenario in which a source communicates with a destination through a relay in the presence of an eavesdropper. In order to degrade the wiretap channel, the FD destination simultaneously transmits an interference signal towards the eavesdropper, while receiving information from the relay. A joint transmit and receive beamformer design is proposed to maximize the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) at the destination, while guaranteeing that the SINR at the eavesdropper is below a certain threshold. We reformulate the optimization problem as a semidefinite relaxation problem in terms of a transmit beamforming matrix. To balance the performance and system complexity, we investigate suboptimum beamforming designs based on zero-forcing criterion. We derive exact closed-form expressions for the average secrecy rates of the proposed suboptimum designs. Our results reveal that optimum and suboptimum beamforming schemes along with friendly jamming significantly improve the secrecy performance. Moreover, simulation results demonstrate that the optimum scheme outperforms suboptimum schemes, especially in high transmit power regimes.

Improving Physical Layer Secrecy Using Full-Duplex Jamming Receivers

Gan Zheng, Ioannis Krikidis, Jiangyuan Li +2 more

This paper studies secrecy rate optimization in a wireless network with a single-antenna source, a multi-antenna destination and a multi-antenna eavesdropper. This is an unfavorable scenario for secrecy performance as the system is interference-limited. In the literature, assuming that the receiver operates in half duplex (HD) mode, the aforementioned problem has been addressed via use of cooperating nodes who act as jammers to confound the eavesdropper. This paper investigates an alternative solution, which assumes the availability of a full duplex (FD) receiver. In particular, while receiving data, the receiver transmits jamming noise to degrade the eavesdropper channel. The proposed self-protection scheme eliminates the need for external helpers and provides system robustness. For the case in which global channel state information is available, we aim to design the optimal jamming covariance matrix that maximizes the secrecy rate and mitigates loop interference associated with the FD operation. We consider both fixed and optimal linear receiver design at the destination, and show that the optimal jamming covariance matrix is rank-1, and can be found via an efficient 1-D search. For the case in which only statistical information on the eavesdropper channel is available, the optimal power allocation is studied in terms of ergodic and outage secrecy rates. Simulation results verify the analysis and demonstrate substantial performance gain over conventional HD operation at the destination.

Secrecy Enhancing in Wireless Communication with a Full-Duplexing at the Receiver

Lukman Abiodun Olawoyin, Yue Wu, Hongwen Yang +2 more

Information secrecy is achievable in a broadcast wireless communication system when the adversary channel witness a greater disruption as against the main channel. The secrecy level need to be enhanced as the adversary terminal can use advance method to eaves drop the hidden message being exchanged between the two legitimate communicating partners. The use of relay- assisted node in information-theoretic approach at the physical layer security has been widely researched into but they are mostly operate in a half-duplex mode (HD). With the advancement in electronic technology, the use of a single antenna in full duplex mode (FD) is possible. We explore this property in enhancing the security of a broadcast wireless system at the physical layer. In this work, the transmitter generates artificial noise (AN) while the legitimate receiver(LR) also transmits another jamming noise (JN) from its antenna to unintended receiver (UR) node. The effect of these multiple noises are examined on the secrecy capacity and probability outage capacity on the UR channel. Mathematical analysis and the numerical simulation results show improvement in channel secrecy capacity over the conventional approaches.
