A Survey of Physical Layer Security Techniques for 5G Wireless Networks and Challenges Ahead
Physical layer security which safeguards data confidentiality based on the
information-theoretic approaches has received significant research interest
recently. The key idea behind physical layer security is to utilize the
intrinsic randomness of the transmission channel to guarantee the security in
physical layer. The evolution towards 5G wireless communications poses new
challenges for physical layer security research. This paper provides a latest
survey of the physical layer security research on various promising 5G
technologies, including physical layer security coding, massive multiple-input
multiple-output, millimeter wave communications, heterogeneous networks,
non-orthogonal multiple access, full duplex technology, etc. Technical
challenges which remain unresolved at the time of writing are summarized and
the future trends of physical layer security in 5G and beyond are discussed.Comment: To appear in IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communication
Matching Theory for Future Wireless Networks: Fundamentals and Applications
The emergence of novel wireless networking paradigms such as small cell and
cognitive radio networks has forever transformed the way in which wireless
systems are operated. In particular, the need for self-organizing solutions to
manage the scarce spectral resources has become a prevalent theme in many
emerging wireless systems. In this paper, the first comprehensive tutorial on
the use of matching theory, a Nobelprize winning framework, for resource
management in wireless networks is developed. To cater for the unique features
of emerging wireless networks, a novel, wireless-oriented classification of
matching theory is proposed. Then, the key solution concepts and algorithmic
implementations of this framework are exposed. Then, the developed concepts are
applied in three important wireless networking areas in order to demonstrate
the usefulness of this analytical tool. Results show how matching theory can
effectively improve the performance of resource allocation in all three
applications discussed
