Abstract

In this letter, we consider a secure underlay cognitive radio network consisting of a secondary source-destination pair and a primary transmitter-receiver pair in the presence of a primary passive eavesdropper. Herein, a secondary multi-antenna full-duplex destination node acts as a jammer to the primary eavesdropper in an effort to improve the physical layer security of the primary network. In return for this favor, the energy constrained secondary source gets access to the primary network to transmit its own information so long as the interference to the latter is below a certain level. In light of the aforementioned, we evaluate the system performance in terms of the outage probability for the secondary network, the secrecy outage probability, and the probability of non-zero secrecy capacity for the primary network. Numerical results are provided to verify the correctness of the proposed analytical framework.
