Abstract:
We study the problem of secure transmission over a Gaussian (2, 1, 1)–multi-input single-output (MISO) wiretap channel under the assumption that links connecting the legitimate receiver and the eavesdropper, may have unequal strengths statistically and delayed channel state information is available at the transmitter (CSIT) from both receivers, respectively. We focus on a two state topological setting of strong v.s. weak links. For this model, we establish bounds on generalized secure degrees of freedom (SDoF). For some special cases, the upper and lower bounds coincide and SDoF is characterized. The encoding scheme sheds light on the usage of both resources, i.e., topology and delayed CSIT, in a non-trivial manner.
