Interference alignment based secure transmission scheme in multi-user interference networks by Lin HU, Jiabing FAN, Hong WEN, Jie TANG, Qianbin CHEN

“…Faced with the requirement of information security in internet of things, a scenario of multi-user interference networks with multiple eavesdroppers was considered, and an interference alignment (IA) scheme based physical layer secure transmission was proposed.Traditional IA security algorithm may result in secret signal cancellation.To overcome this threat, a modified alternating minimization (AM) method was proposed.The multi-user interference was eliminated by alternatively optimizing transceiver matrices, and artificial noise (AN) aided max-eigenmode beamforming was employed for secure transmission.To obtain a more accurate analysis of IA feasibility, the IA equation was divided into independent subsets and their combinations.By analyzing each case, a much tighter necessary condition for IA feasibility was established.Finally, the power allocation ratio between the secret signal and the AN signal was optimized to maximize the secrecy outage probability (SOP) constrained secrecy rate.Numerical results confirm that both the quality and security of the secret signal have been enhanced.Therefore, the proposed scheme is more suitable and reliable for security applications in interference networks.…”

Using random subcarrier weighting for multi-carrier systems physical layer security by Zhou ZHONG, Liang JIN, Kai-zhi HUANG

“…An OFDM security model and a physical layer security transmission scheme were proposed for multi-carrier systems to achieve low probability of interception.In contrast to the resource allocation algorithm which would be disabled at the low SNR,this method designed the subcarrier transmission weighting vectors to randomize the eavesdropper’s signals but not the authorized receiver’s signals.The channel state information was the only character to distinguish authorized receivers and eavesdroppers,which was conducted to guide the weighting vectors design.Simulation results show that the proposed method guarantees that authorized receiver performs transmitted reference demodulation successfully,while the eavesdroppers can not detect the transmitted symbols.…”
