Abstract.

The paper principally proposes a suboptimally closed-form solution in terms of a general asymptotic bound of the secrecy capacity in relation to MIMOME-based transceivers. Such pivotal solution is essentially tight as well, fundamentally originating from the principle convexity. The resultant novelty, per se, is strictly necessary since the absolutely central criterion imperfect knowledge of the wiretap channel at the transmitter should also be highly regarded. Meanwhile, ellipsoidal channel uncertainty set-driven strategies are physically taken into consideration. Our proposed solution is capable of perfectly being applied for other general equilibria such as multiuser ones. In fact, this in principle addresses an entirely appropriate alternative for worst-case method-driven algorithms utilising some provable inequality-based mathematical expressions. Our framework is adequately guaranteed regarding a totally acceptable outage probability (as 1 − preciseness coefficient). The relative value is almost for the estimation error values (EEVs) for -based transceivers, which is noticeably reinforced at nearly for EEVs   for the case . Furthermore, our proposed scheme basically guarantees the secrecy outage probability (SOP) less than for the case of having EEVs , for the higher power regime.

1. Introduction

In order to highlight a significantly more favourable system performance in terms of higher security in wireless networks, a programmable beamformer is set up at the transmitter [1–4]. Such technologically advanced equipment (precoder) is undoubtedly able to manage the users’ links in totally different paradigms, originated from the fact of resource allocation. In the context of the forenamed widely supported principle, it is also highly motivated to provide the fashions convex, without loss of optimality.

The convexity cited above has a vast range of beneficial knock-on effects such as markedly more adequate convergence in design problem. Thus, the enlightening concept convexity is highly emphasised in order to guarantee an absolute robustness in terms of tractability in association with the optimisation problem.

The optimisation problem (where the precoder is computed) optimally/suboptimally features a guarantee of the quality of service (QoS) in multiuser games, for example, multi-input multioutput multiantenna eavesdropper- (MIMOME-) based ones. QoS should be fairly taken into account among all players, since eavesdroppers (Eaves) may be licensed or unauthorised ones in the mentioned futuristic transceivers.

The suboptimality expressed above advances a trade-off between two criteria such as convexity which suffers from, for example, channel uncertainties (originated from imperfect channel state information, which necessarily causes information deficiency) and a tractable response. In this paper, such trade-off is addressed as well.

1.1. Related Work

In this part, we generally provide a comprehensive overview over the existing work in relation to secrecy enhancement.

1.1.1. General Perspective

Chiefly according to the principle Convexification [5, 6], security is an absolutely central criterion in designing transceivers, in the context of telemedicine games [7, 8]; cooperative relay networks [9, 10]; wireless information power transfer and energy harvesting scenarios [11, 12]; or low-rank beamforming issue [13].

1.1.2. Algorithms: An Overview

In [14], a secure game theory-driven transmission framework was conducted for MIMOMEs proposing three algorithms aimed at maximising sum secrecy rate. A trade-off was theoretically defined in [15] for the principles sum secrecy rate reinforcement and energy efficiency which could provide a balance in physical-layer-security-based transceiver designs. In [16], three general approaches were proposed in order to choose a paradigm for two-objective design problems, namely, Nash bargaining (the most efficient one), Jain’s index, and the Kalai-Smorodinsky bargaining. In [17], utilising a dynamic programming algorithm, a multilayer wiretap coding framework was fundamentally proposed.

1.1.3. Closed-Form Solutions: An Overview

Regarding main-to-eavesdropper ratio, SOP’s diversity order remaining fixed was proven in [18]. In [19], taking into account various receiver arrangements for MIMOME transceivers over Nakagami-m fading channels, SOP was precisely computed. In [20], it was proven that the intercept probability does not rely on Eave’ numbers in a cooperative-based network; instead, it relies specifically upon the number of relays. Asymptotic bounds for the outage probability defined for the secrecy rate and the achievable diversity were explored in [21]. Investigating the information’s exponential decay rate intercepted by Eave when using an average wiretap channel code, a tight and achievable secrecy rate was mathematically derived in [22]. Taking into account the generalised degrees of freedom, an investigation was basically provided in relation to the optimality of treating interference as noise over -channels in [23]. Integrating a chaos stream cipher with the secure polar coding strategy, a general secure framework was technically fulfilled in [24].

1.2. Motivation

Regarding the literature, still suboptimal solutions are needed as favourable as possible, which basically guarantee a closed-form solution in relation to the channel uncertainty-based scenarios.

1.3. Contribution

We generally calculate the asymptotic bound of the secrecy capacity which is totally acceptable providing an adequately solvable and convex equivalent problem, correspondingly.

Main Contributions. Overall, our main contribution over the existing work is to achieve a generally closed-form solution for the secrecy capacity while simultaneously guaranteeing

(i)convexity which highlights a significantly more adequate response,(ii)near optimality in terms of a logically deniable outage probability of error (a principally acceptable preciseness coefficient, which also guarantees an acceptable SOP), which are absolutely defined in parallel with each other.

In other words, we mathematically provide a general solution as a newly discovered trade-off irrespective of the kind of fading channels, the type of strategies, and so on. Such novel trade-off is able to be deployed to other schemes and has not been examined so far, which simultaneously is satisfied with a tight (correct) response and a deniable SOP (computation error). The mentioned trade-off is interpreted with the aim of near-optimally finding the upper-bound (worst-case) of Eave’s received power.

2. Problem Description

A MIMOME-based transceiver is literally given in Figure 1. The MIMO channels between the legitimate transmitter and the legitimate user as well as Eave are principally denoted by H and G (please note that our scheme undoubtedly satisfies H and G of sizes and ; however, we considered them as (square) for more convenience), in a Down-link paradigm. For G, we experience imperfect knowledge (which degrades QoS): that is,   (our scheme is not applicable for some other frameworks [25, 26] in which, for example, the channel matrix is an arbitrary known matrix physically multiplied by a clear matrix [27, p. ]). Now, regarding the threshold , for we merely define the ellipsoidal uncertainty set . Instantaneous Ergodic capacity and also the undesired capacity (in connection with Eave) are, respectively, determined as

with respect to the noise variance terms and at the receiver sides and the transmit covariance matrix .

2.1. Our Proposed Solution

Property 1. Since we technically aim at maximising the secrecy capacity which can be logically interpreted as , we should theoretically provide the physical implication instead of . is the target secrecy capacity.

The mapping decomposition cited above fundamentally requires the constraint [28–31]. Inversely, being rank-1 unfavourably causes nonconvexity [29–31]. Of course under some circumstances, the aforementioned constraint holds and it can be alternatively dropped (e.g., in [32] in which nearly 99.79% rank-1 results in the simulations were witnessed). However, in order to guarantee the considerably more acceptable system with the higher reliability, we should ensure the design problem further.

As newly recently proposed in [33, 34], the rank-1 constraint can be basically relaxed as the dual constraints

where and are slack variable matrices, correspondingly.

Fully take into account the optimisation problem below as Problem

where is a threshold for the transmit power.

Lemma 1 (see [35]). As described in [35], multiplying (pre or post one) by any matrix (of any rank) does not cause any change on positive semidefinite matrices’ rank (see, e.g., [36, ] for the proof).

Corollary 2. With respect to Lemma 1, , while , from (1). See, for example, [36, ] as the positive definite property.

Corollary 3. After carefully writing the dual Lagrange problem, then principally taking the derivative with respect to the defined Lagrange variables, then unifying the resultant term by zero, and finally right multiplying both sides of the resultant mathematical expression by Q, a positive semidefinite matrix would theoretically hold. Regarding Lemma 1, the exact value in relation to the rank can be conveniently calculated.

Lemma 4 (see [37]). If and only if ,

Corollary 5. Simultaneously using Corollary 2 and Lemma 4, and since the function has no technical influence on minimisation or maximisation in principle, we can accordingly maximise , as well as maximising , which is in correspondence with the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and Eave’s received power, respectively. Now, with the aid of instead of , and defining as a threshold for the maximum of Eave’s received power, Problem is

Methodology. We remove the constraint (5b) and accurately add it to the cost-function as a penalty: namely, . According to the penalty method (see, e.g., [17]), Problem is alternatively expressed as

for which we have

is nonconvex, per se, owing to the lack of control on the error in the estimation of G, originated from the channel uncertainty parameter . Since has no closed-form solution with respect to its existing format, consequently, it needs an entirely appropriate alternative. See the following theorem.

Theorem 6. unhesitatingly has a solvable and relaxed alternative as Problem as

in which

while the upper-bound of (10) can be conveniently expressed as

See the Appendix for the proof.

Therefore, the upper-bound of (10) is recasted to as well. See the following lemma.

Lemma 7. Defining the deterministic value instead of as its worst-case (upper-bound) and simultaneously maximising provide the asymptotic bound of the optimisation problem in terms of , which efficiently guarantees convexity and then tractability. Indeed, we merely provided a technical segregation between the terms and (in the Appendix), which chiefly provided an opportunity where the inaccessible and unrecognised (in relation to the ellipsoidal channel uncertainty sets) term is generally formulated from another viewpoint.

Lemma 8. According to Schur product theorem [38, Theorem ], would be inevitably a positive semidefinite matrix; therefore, the key features (intrinsic physical and statistical properties) sufficiently remain stable.

3. Results

In this section, we analyse the system performance as well.

Some parameters and assumptions in the simulations are as follows. is equal to . Correlations at the MIMO antenna array are defined as . The number of randomly generated Rayleigh fading channel realisations is 1000. , , and are separately defined for each figure.

It should be noted that, for or higher, our proposed solution is completely trustable or even for while having the lower error rates in the estimation, that is, . Inversely, for (Single-Input Single-Output schemes) such closed-from solution has a remarkably less reliable performance. The case is discovered in detail in the second subsection.

Such strong reinforcement is effectively justified by the markedly more adequate convergence for , analytically caused by convexity comprehensively originated from solvability. Worst-case method in our simulation is applied according to S-Lemma (see, e.g., [39, eq. -], [40, eq. ], [41, eq. ]) which indicates that (5b) can be relaxed as

In Figure 5, the secrecy capacity for our approach compared to the worst-case method is depicted against SNR (dB), while changing and and also having . It is revealed that the higher we adjust, the larger values for the secrecy capacity can be mathematically achieved. This point can be theoretically analysed as follows. For example, assume that the general convex optimisation problem , subjected to . In general, when . It is sufficient to write Lagrange function for the problem, after taking the derivative with respect to one Lagrange variable in connection with the unique constraint and also and then unifying the resultant terms by zero; . Indeed, . In other words, the higher physically causes the bigger search region. Finally, how to take the derivative needed for our scheme is essentially obvious according to the fact , while , which is proven with regard to , which is given in [36, eq. ].

Indeed, the asymptotic bound of the secrecy capacity is technically equal to SNR while mathematically subtracting Eave’s received power.

3.1. Complexity

In relation to the complexity, we should compare (11) with (13). To this end, among the methods in the literature (e.g., [5, 32, 42]), we use the procedure of counting the flip-flops, as described in [5, Table ]. In this method, for example, the complexity of the matrix product for two matrices of sizes, respectively, and is . Regarding an extreme range of operations in (13), our scheme has a more favourable complexity, which is ≈ compared to ≈ in which is Big-O function.

3.2. Case

Feature 1. According to , the reliability for is crucially lower than that of the cases with larger values for . However, because of the term which is extremely larger than (see (8a)),   can be guaranteed instead, which perfectly highlights the importance of the outperformance, correctness, and effectiveness of our work.

Feature 2. For the case , convexity theoretically is satisfied.

3.3. Quick Overview

Feature 3. In general, from (14) it can be seen that since .

Feature 4. In general, when .

Feature 5. In general, when ; accordingly, when .

With respect to the main advantages thoroughly discussed in relation to the proposed scheme, its outperformance, correctness, and effectiveness are obviously highlighted over the existing methods (conventionally utilised in the literature, specifically the worst-case one).

4. Conclusion

An asymptotic bound for the secrecy capacity in the context of resource allocation was suboptimally defined for MIMOME-based systems for a general channel uncertainty fashion, supporting one theorem and also some lemmas and corollaries. The suboptimality cited above was principally highlighted in terms of a significantly acceptable trade-off between tractability and a less outage probability. Indeed, the deniable values obtained for the relative outage probability guaranteed our framework, which also fundamentally highlighted a tight and acceptable response for the system as well. The relative outage probability was almost for EEVs for MIMO antenna arrays. Our proposed framework is completely implementable for other general equilibria, which basically provided SOPs less than for the case where and , .

The proof can be conveniently completed regarding the detailed Remarks  A.1, A.2, and A.3.
Remark A.1. The fourth line in (A.1) is literally approximated while generally ignoring . Succinctly speaking, the general perspective and theoretical background behind the forenamed negligence lie mostly in the influence of the norms of the relative terms. The aforementioned logic can be theoretically observed in Figure 2.
Remark A.2. The logic behind the fifth line in (A.1) comes technically from the physical and casual behaviour of both precoder and error matrices. Indeed, since the forenamed matrices are positive semidefinite, hence, they should principally exist.
Remark A.3. The penultimate line in (A.1) straightforwardly originates from Cauchy-Schwarz-Bunyakovsky inequality [43, eq. ].
The proof of Theorem 6 is completed.
