Abstract

We analyze and optimize the use of artificial noise (AN) for a predefined secrecy rate in wiretap channels with a multi-antenna transmitter, a single-antenna receiver, and a single-antenna eavesdropper. We derive a new closed-form expression for the secrecy outage probability that is independent of the channel realization. Based on this expression, we first optimize the power allocation between the information signal and the AN signal such that the secrecy outage probability is minimized. We then optimize jointly the power allocation and secrecy rate such that the secrecy throughput is maximized. As demonstrated by our analysis, the minimum secrecy outage probability requires more power to be allocated to the AN signal when the quality of the main channel quality or the eavesdropper's channel improves.
