Asymptotic performance analysis of untrusted relay system with full-duplex jamming destination by Rui ZHAO, Xing TAN, Yuanjian LI, Yucheng HE, Chunguo LI

“…The cooperative relay technique in the field of physical layer security is widely concerned by the academic community,due to the advantages of increasing the network capacity and expanding the network coverage.However,cooperative relays may play as untrusted nodes in some certain circumstances.Based on this,to enhance the secrecy performance of untrusted relay systems,a novel full-duplex destination jamming (FDJ) scheme was proposed in the Rayleigh fading channel.In order to maximize the system’s secrecy capacity,a switchable split-optimal antenna selection (OAS) scheme was proposed for a multiple-antenna destination,the power allocation optimization scheme between the source and destination was designed,and the corresponding closed-form expressions of secrecy performance were given.In the large-scale antennas analysis,the closed-form expressions of the ergodic achievable secrecy rate and the optimal power allocation factor of instantaneous secrecy capacity for the FDJ-OAS scheme were derived.Furthermore,based on different asymptotic cases,the asymptotic analyses of secrecy outage probability for the FDJ-OAS scheme were significantly analyzed.Simulation results show that the analytical curves match well with the Monte-Carlo simulation results.It is concluded that the diversity order of the FDJ-OAS scheme is proportional to the number of antennas and antenna diversity can be achieved,which reveals the advantages of the proposed FDJ-OAS scheme.…”

Physical layer security performance of MF relay selection systems by Ying CHENG, Guangqiu LI, Jingjie SHEN, Liang WEI

“…Aimed at the poor security performance of single antenna multi-relay modify-and-forward (MF) cooperative wireless systems in collusion eavesdropping scenario, MF cooperative physical layer security systems combining source node transmit antenna selection (TAS) and multi-relay selection in collusion eavesdropping scenario were proposed.Two relay selection schemes were considered, namely, the optimal maximization of the main channel signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and the suboptimal maximization of the source-relay link SNR.The closed-form expressions of the secrecy outage probability (SOP) and ergodic secure capacity (ESC) for the above MF cooperative wireless systems were derived.The numerical results of SOP and ESC of MF secure relay systems with optimal or suboptimal relay selection were consistent with the simulation results, which verifies the correctness of the above theoretical analysis.It also shows that the more the number of transmit antennas at the source node and relay nodes, and the less the number of eavesdropping nodes, the better the physical layer security performance of MF secure relay systems with optimal or suboptimal relay selection.…”

The role of response elements organization in transcription factor selectivity: the IFN-β enhanceosome example. by Yongping Pan, Ruth Nussinov

“…Our molecular dynamics (MD) simulations on different motif combinations from the enhanceosome illustrate that cooperativity is achieved via unique organization of the REs: specific binding of one TF can enhance the binding of another TF to a neighboring RE and restrict others, through overlap of REs; the order of the REs can determine which complexes will form; and the alternation of consensus and non-consensus REs can regulate binding specificity by optimizing the interactions among partners. …”
