| Summary: | The precoder obtained using the traditional singular value decomposition (SVD) method for legitimate user’s channel, while achieving the highest spectral efficiency for the legitimate user, cannot defend against eavesdropping attacks, thus posing a security vulnerability. This paper investigates the millimeter wave (mmWave) secure beam hybrid precoding technology and proposes a generalized singular value decomposition (GSVD)-based secure beam hybrid precoding algorithm, termed GSVD-Sparsity, leveraging the sparsity of the mmWave beamspace channel. The algorithm selects the most powerful paths from the legitimate user’s beamspace channel representation and utilizes their corresponding angle information to construct a radio frequency (RF) precoder. It then constructs a hybrid precoder that closely approximates the optimal digital precoder derived from the GSVD-based scheme in a fully digital system. The simulation results indicate that, compared to the SVD-based scheme that focuses on spectral efficiency, the GSVD-based precoding scheme can form secure beams in a fully digital system. Under the condition that the legitimate user experiences a certain loss in the received signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), the eavesdropper is unable to correctly reconstruct the original constellation diagram, ensuring the scheme has strong anti-eavesdropping capabilities. In a hybrid precoding system, the low-complexity GSVD-Sparsity algorithm can achieve a spectral efficiency close to that of the GSVD-based scheme in a fully digital system while maintaining anti-eavesdropping capabilities. |
