Relay Secrecy in Wireless Networks with Eavesdroppers
نویسندگان
چکیده
Anonymous monitoring of transmissions in a wireless network by eavesdroppers can provide critical information about the data flows in the network. It is, therefore, necessary to design network protocols that maintain secrecy of routes from eavesdroppers. In this work, we present a mathematical formulation of route secrecy when eavesdroppers observe transmission epochs of nodes. We propose scheduling techniques to provide complete secrecy of routes, and characterize achievable rate regions for a multiplex relay under transmitter directed spread spectrum signaling. Further, we extend the results to the case when an additional constraint on packet loss is imposed. Index Terms Network Security, Traffic Mix, Scheduling, Packet Coding.

On information-theoretic secrecy for wireless networks
In this paper we summarize our recent work on information-theoretically secure wireless relay network communication. In such communication, the goal is to send information between two special nodes (“source” and “destination”) in a (memoryless) network with authenticated relays, where the secrecy is with respect to a class of eavesdroppers. We develop achievable secrecy rates when authenticated...

Physical-layer security for wireless networks has become an effective approach and recently drawn significant attention in the literature. In particular, the deployment and allocation of resources such as relays to assist the transmission have gained significant interest due to their ability to improve the secrecy rate of wireless networks. In this work, we examine relay selection criteria with...

متن کاملStudy of Relay Selection for Physical-Layer Security in Buffer-Aided Relay Networks Based on the Secrecy Rate Criterion
In this paper, we investigate an opportunistic relay and jammer scheme along with relay selection algorithms based on the secrecy rate criterion in multiple-input multiple-output buffer-aided down link relay networks, which consist of one source, a number of relay nodes, legitimate users and eavesdroppers, with the constraints of physical layer security. The opportunistic relay and jammer schem...
متن کاملSimultaneous Wireless Power Transfer and Secure Multicasting in Cooperative Decode-and-Forward Relay Networks
In this paper, we investigate simultaneous wireless power transfer and secure multicasting via cooperative decode-and-forward (DF) relays in the presence of multiple energy receivers and eavesdroppers. Two scenarios are considered under a total power budget: maximizing the minimum harvested energy among the energy receivers under a multicast secrecy rate constraint; and maximizing the multicast...
