Abstract
This paper presents a new control-jammer (CJ) strategy for improving the secrecy outage probability (SOP) in a non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) network with a decode-and-forward (DF) relay. The network configuration involves a source transmitting a composite signal to NOMA users with the assistance of a DF relay. In order to safeguard the users' confidential data from an eavesdropper (Eve), a jammer is deployed. The primary objective of the optimization problem is to minimize the SOP for the NOMA users in the presence of Eve. Under the CJ condition, this paper evaluates the network's physical layer security. Extensive analysis is conducted to compare the performance gap between CJ and other jamming conditions. Through comprehensive simulation results, this study showcases a substantial enhancement in secrecy performance achieved by the proposed CJ scheme at both users, demonstrating its effectiveness in improving the security of the DF relay aided NOMA network.
