Abstract

In the multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system, the transmit antenna is selected by transmitting antenna selection (TAS)/receiver using receiver antenna selection (RAS). Consider the actual transmission situation: the transmitter cannot get the channel information of the eavesdropper’s channel. The main channel between the transmitter and the receiver is selected, and an antenna with the largest instantaneous signal- to-noise ratio (SNR) is selected for transmission. RAS is adopted at the receiving end. The main channel and the eavesdropper’s channel are independent and distributed Rayleigh channel. In this paper, we derive closed-form expressions of probability and safety outage probability for TAS/RAS. Various numerical results are presented that corroborate the analysis.

Secure Transmission Via TAS in MIMO Wiretap Channels

XIAO-HUI HU, Xianyi Rui

In the multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system, the transmit antenna is selected by transmitting antenna selection (TAS) at the transmitter and Maximal Ratio Combining (MRC) at the eavesdropper. Consider the actual transmission situation: the transmitter cannot get the channel information of the eavesdropper’s channel. The main channel between the transmitter and the receiver is selected, and an antenna with the largest instantaneous signal- to-noise ratio (SNR) is selected for transmission. Receiver is a single antenna device. The main channel and the eavesdropper’s channel is independent and distributed Rayleigh channel. In this paper, we derive closed-form expressions of probability and safety outage probability for TAS. Various numerical results are presented that corroborate the analysis.

Secure transmission via transmit antenna selection in MIMO wiretap channels

Nan Yang, Phee Lep Yeoh, Maged Elkashlan +2 more

We propose and analyze transmit antenna selection (TAS) to enhance physical layer security in a wiretap channel with multiple antennas at the transmitter, the receiver, and the eavesdropper. We consider the practical scenario of passive eavesdropping, where the transmitter does not have any channel state information (CSI) of the eavesdropper's channel. In the main channel between the transmitter and the receiver, we select a single antenna at the transmitter that maximizes the instantaneous signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) at the receiver. At the receiver and the eavesdropper, we consider two combining techniques: 1) maximal-ratio combining (MRC) and 2) selection combining (SC). For non-identical Rayleigh fading between the main channel and the eavesdropper's channel, we first derive new closed-form expressions for the exact and asymptotic secrecy outage probabilities. The asymptotic results accurately reveal the secrecy diversity order and the secrecy array gain. Next, we derive new closed-form expressions for the probability of positive secrecy and characterize the ε-outage secrecy capacity. We show that, under TAS/MRC and TAS/SC protocols, the secrecy outage probability approaches zero and the ε-outage secrecy capacity increases with increasing number of transmitter antennas.

Transmit antenna selection with Alamouti scheme in MIMO wiretap channels

Shihao Yan, Nan Yang, Robert Malaney +1 more

This paper proposes a new transmit antenna selection (TAS) scheme which provides enhanced physical layer security in multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wiretap channels. The practical passive eavesdropping scenario we consider is where channel state information (CSI) from the eavesdropper is not available at the transmitter. Our new scheme is carried out in two steps. First, the transmitter selects the two strongest antennas based on the feedback from the receiver, which maximizes the instantaneous signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the transmitter-receiver channel. Second, the Alamouti scheme is employed at the selected antennas in order to perform data transmission. At the receiver and the eavesdropper, maximal-ratio combining is applied in order to exploit the multiple antennas. We derive a new closed-form expression for the secrecy outage probability in non-identical Rayleigh fading, and using this result, we then present the probability of non-zero secrecy capacity in closed form and the ε-outage secrecy capacity in numerical form. We demonstrate that our proposed TAS-Alamouti scheme offers lower secrecy outage probability than a single TAS scheme when the SNR of the transmitter-receiver channel is above a specific value.

Physical Layer Security of MIMO Wiretap Systems with Antenna Selection in Rayleigh Fading with Imperfect Feedback

Mohamed Lassaad Ammari, Paul Fortier

The impact of feedback errors on the security performances of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wiretap channels is analyzed. For the legitimate MIMO system, two schemes are considered: 1) transmit antenna selection/maximal ratio combining (TAS/MRC) and 2) transmit antenna selection/receive antenna selection (TAS/RAS). The eavesdropper uses either MRC or RAS techniques. We derive closed-form expressions for the exact secrecy outage probability (SOP) and the probability of strictly positive secrecy capacity (PSPSC). In order to obtain the secrecy diversity order and the secrecy array gain, on asymptotic SOP expression is also derived.

Secrecy analysis for selection among transmit antennas with unequal average SNR performance

Yujia Hu, Xiaofeng Tao

This paper presents a general analytical framework to evaluate the secrecy performance of transmit antenna selection (TAS) systems without requiring the identical average signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) from different transmit antennas. Closed-form expressions of secrecy outage probability are derived in a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wiretap channel. Moreover, a novel TAS scheme based on the limited feedback from both the receiver and the eavesdropper is proposed and analysed. With the additional consideration of the eavesdropper's channel, security is shown to be enhanced although the instantaneous channel state information (CSI) keeps unknown to the transmitter. Finally, numerical results substantiate the aforementioned analysis.

Secrecy Performance of Antenna-Selection-Aided MIMOME Channels with BPSK/QPSK Modulations

Chongjun Ouyang, Zeliang Ou, Pei Yang +3 more

This paper studies the secrecy performance of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wiretap channels, also termed as multiple-input multiple-output multiple-eavesdropper (MIMOME) channels, under transmit antenna selection (TAS) and BPSK/QPSK modulations. In the main channel between the transmitter and the legitimate receiver, a single transmit antenna is selected to maximize the instantaneous Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) at the receiver. At the receiver and the eavesdropper, selection combining (SC) is utilized. Additionally, suppose that the transmitted message is modulated by BPSK/QPSK modes. We first derive the closed-form approximated expression for the ergodic secrecy rate under Rayleigh fading, assuming that the channel state information of the eavesdropper (CSIE) is available at the transmitter. Next, analytical formulas for the approximated and asymptotic secrecy outage probability are also developed when CSIE is unavailable (NCSIE). Simulation results are provided to demonstrate the approximation precision of the derived results above. Furthermore, the asymptotic results reveal that the secrecy diversity order degrades into 0 due to the finite-alphabet inputs, which is totally different from that driven by the Gaussian inputs.
