Joint Relay Selection and Power Allocation in Large-Scale MIMO Systems with Untrusted Relays and Passive Eavesdroppers
In this paper, a joint relay selection and power allocation (JRP) scheme is
proposed to enhance the physical layer security of a cooperative network, where
a multiple antennas source communicates with a single-antenna destination in
presence of untrusted relays and passive eavesdroppers (Eves). The objective is
to protect the data confidentially while concurrently relying on the untrusted
relays as potential Eves to improve both the security and reliability of the
network. To realize this objective, we consider cooperative jamming performed
by the destination while JRP scheme is implemented. With the aim of maximizing
the instantaneous secrecy rate, we derive a new closed-form solution for the
optimal power allocation and propose a simple relay selection criterion under
two scenarios of non-colluding Eves (NCE) and colluding Eves (CE). For the
proposed scheme, a new closed-form expression is derived for the ergodic
secrecy rate (ESR) and the secrecy outage probability as security metrics, and
a new closed-form expression is presented for the average symbol error rate
(SER) as a reliability measure over Rayleigh fading channels. We further
explicitly characterize the high signal-to-noise ratio slope and power offset
of the ESR to highlight the impacts of system parameters on the ESR. In
addition, we examine the diversity order of the proposed scheme to reveal the
achievable secrecy performance advantage. Finally, the secrecy and reliability
diversity-multiplexing tradeoff of the optimized network are provided.
Numerical results highlight that the ESR performance of the proposed JRP scheme
for NCE and CE cases is increased with respect to the number of untrustworthy
relays.Comment: 18 pages, 10 figures, IEEE Transactions on Information Forensics and
