In wireless data networks, communication is particularly susceptible to eavesdropping due to its broadcast nature. Security and privacy systems have become critical for wireless providers and enterprise networks. This paper considers the problem of secret communication over the Gaussian broadcast channel, where a multi-antenna transmitter sends independent confidential messages to two users with perfect secrecy. That is, each user would like to obtain its own message reliably and confidentially. First, a computable Sato-type outer bound on the secrecy capacity region is provided for a multi-antenna broadcast channel with confidential messages. Next, a dirty-paper secure coding scheme and its simplified version are described. For each case, the corresponding achievable rate region is derived under the perfect secrecy requirement. Finally, two numerical examples demonstrate that the Sato-type outer bound is consistent with the boundary of the simplified dirty-paper coding secrecy rate region.

This paper studies the problem of information theoretic secure communication when a source has private messages to transmit to $m$ destinations, in the presence of a passive adversary who eavesdrops an unknown set of $k$ edges. The information theoretic secure capacity is derived over unit-edge capacity separable networks, for the cases when $k=1$ and $m$ is arbitrary, or $m=3$ and $k$ is arbitrary. This is achieved by first showing that there exists a secure polynomial-time code construction that matches an outer bound over two-layer networks, followed by a deterministic mapping between two-layer and arbitrary separable networks.
The standard approach to the design of individual space-time codes is based on optimizing diversity and coding gains. This geometric approach leads to remarkable examples, such as perfect space-time block codes, for which the complexity of Maximum Likelihood (ML) decoding is considerable. Code diversity is an alternative and complementary approach where a small number of feedback bits are used to select from a family of space-time codes. Different codes lead to different induced channels at the receiver, where Channel State Information (CSI) is used to instruct the transmitter how to choose the code. This method of feedback provides gains associated with beamforming while minimizing the number of feedback bits. It complements the standard approach to code design by taking advantage of different (possibly equivalent) realizations of a particular code design. Feedback can be combined with sub-optimal low complexity decoding of the component codes to match ML decoding performance of any individual code in the family. It can also be combined with ML decoding of the component codes to improve performance beyond ML decoding performance of any individual code. One method of implementing code diversity is the use of feedback to adapt the phase of a transmitted signal as shown for 4 by 4 Quasi-Orthogonal Space-Time Block Code (QOSTBC) and multi-user detection using the Alamouti code. Code diversity implemented by selecting from equivalent variants is used to improve ML decoding performance of the Golden code. This paper introduces a family of full rate circulant codes which can be linearly decoded by fourier decomposition of circulant matrices within the code diversity framework. A 3 by 3 circulant code is shown to outperform the Alamouti code at the same transmission rate.
Previous work showed that the X network with M transmitters, N receivers has MN/(M+N-1) degrees of freedom. In this work we study the degrees of freedom of the X network with secrecy constraints, i.e. the X network where some/all messages are confidential. We consider the $M times N$ network where all messages are secured and show that N(M-1)/(M+N-1) degrees of freedom can be achieved. Secondly, we show that if messages from only M-1 transmitters are confidential, then MN/(M+N-1) degrees of freedom can be achieved meaning that there is no loss of degrees of freedom because of secrecy constraints. We also consider the achievable secure degrees of freedom under a more conservative secrecy constraint. We require that messages from any subset of transmitters are secure even if other transmitters are compromised, i.e., messages from the compromised transmitter are revealed to the unintended receivers. We also study the achievable secure degrees of freedom of the K user Gaussian interference channel under two different secrecy constraints where 1/2 secure degrees of freedom per message can be achieved. The achievable scheme in all cases is based on random binning combined with interference alignment.
The feasibility of physical-layer-based security approaches for wireless communications in the presence of one or more eavesdroppers is hampered by channel conditions. In this paper, cooperation is investigated as an approach to overcome this problem and improve the performance of secure communications. In particular, a decode-and-forward (DF) based cooperative protocol is considered, and the objective is to design the system for secrecy capacity maximization or transmit power minimization. System design for the DF-based cooperative protocol is first studied by assuming the availability of global channel state information (CSI). For the case of one eavesdropper, an iterative scheme is proposed to obtain the optimal solution for the problem of transmit power minimization. For the case of multiple eavesdroppers, the problem of secrecy capacity maximization or transmit power minimization is in general intractable. Suboptimal system design is proposed by adding an additional constraint, i.e., the complete nulling of signals at all eavesdroppers, which yields simple closed-form solutions for the aforementioned two problems. Then, the impact of imperfect CSI of eavesdroppers on system design is studied, in which the ergodic secrecy capacity is of interest.
In this paper we investigate the practical design for the multiple-antenna cognitive radio (CR) networks sharing the geographically used or unused spectrum. We consider a single cell network formed by the primary users (PU), which are half-duplex two-hop relay channels and the secondary users (SU) are single user additive white Gaussian noise channels. In addition, the coexistence constraint which requires PUs coding schemes and rates unchanged with the emergence of SU, should be satisfied. The contribution of this paper are twofold. First, we explicitly design the scheme to pair the SUs to the existing PUs in a single cell network. Second, we jointly design the nonlinear precoder, relay beamformer, and the transmitter and receiver beamformers to minimize the sum mean square error of the SU system. In the first part, we derive an approximate relation between the relay ratio, chordal distance and strengths of the vector channels, and the transmit powers. Based on this relation, we are able to solve the optimal pairing between SUs and PUs efficiently. In the second part, considering the feasibility of implementation, we exploit the Tomlinson-Harashima precoding instead of the dirty paper coding to mitigate the interference at the SU receiver, which is known side information at the SU transmitter. To complete the design, we first approximate the optimization problem as a convex one. Then we propose an iterative algorithm to solve it with CVX. This joint design exploits all the degrees of design. To the best of our knowledge, both the two parts have never been considered in the literature. Numerical results show that the proposed pairing scheme outperforms the greedy and random pairing with low complexity. Numerical results also show that even if all the channel matrices are full rank, under which the simple zero forcing scheme is infeasible, the proposed scheme can still work well.
