Abstract

In this letter, we focus on the secrecy outage analysis of ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC) systems in the presence of randomly located eavesdroppers and imperfect channel state information (CSI). To be specific, the secrecy outage probability (SOP) of pilot-assisted URLLC system is investigated, which is defined as the probability that either the reliability const-raint or the secrecy constraint cannot be satisfied when the packet is delivered with a target data rate and blocklength. In fact, the definition of SOP in URLLC scenarios with short-packet feature is evidently different from that in the infinite blocklength regime. Inspired by this, we first propose a novel analytical framework to approximate the SOP in a tractable manner. Then, the asymptotic behaviours of SOP in the high-SNR and large-antenna cases are also analyzed to gain a comprehensive insight. Numerical results illustrate how the SOP of our pilot-assisted URLLC system varies with specific transmission parameters.
