Abstract
The use of multiple source nodes with wireless backhaul is considered for secrecy enhancement through source node selection in future wireless networks. The ergodic secrecy rate (ESR) of optimal source node selection in the presence of multiple eavesdroppers over independent non-identically distributed (INID) Rayleigh fading channels is evaluated in closed-form. At high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), the ESR is expressed as a simple weighted summation where each term relates to the contribution of an individual source and eavesdropper. An asymptotic analysis shows the effect of the system parameters and backhaul reliability on the performance. The proposed method can provide a generalized solution for the ESR of optimal transmit antenna selection in multi-antenna systems, optimal source node selection, and optimal relay selection with or without unreliable backhaul.
