On the Secrecy Degrees of Freedom of Multi-Antenna Wiretap Channels with Delayed CSIT
The secrecy degrees of freedom (SDoF) of the Gaussian multiple-input and
single-output (MISO) wiretap channel is studied under the assumption that
delayed channel state information (CSI) is available at the transmitter and
each receiver knows its own instantaneous channel. We first show that a
strictly positive SDoF can be guaranteed whenever the transmitter has delayed
CSI (either on the legitimate channel or/and the eavesdropper channel). In
particular, in the case with delayed CSI on both channels, it is shown that the
optimal SDoF is 2/3. We then generalize the result to the two-user Gaussian
MISO broadcast channel with confidential messages and characterize the SDoF
region when the transmitter has delayed CSI of both receivers. Interestingly,
the artificial noise schemes exploiting several time instances are shown to
provide the optimal SDoF region by masking the confidential message to the
unintended receiver while aligning the interference at each receiver.Comment: 5 pages, 1 figure, 1 table. This work has been presented at ISIT
