Abstract

Wireless short-packet communication is one of the key technologies for realizing 5G Internet of Things (IoT) applications such as massive machine type communication (mMTC) and ultra-reliable low latency communication (uRLLC). For applications such as the industrial IoT and the Internet of Vehicles, the security of wireless communication is of paramount importance. This paper investigates the secure transmission from the perspective of physical layer security for short-packet communication systems under slow fading channels. A secrecy outage probability (SOP) is defined based on the conclusion of secure short-packet communication information theory, while the reliable throughput with the SOP restriction is established as the secure communication performance metric of the short-packet communication system. On this basis, adaptive and non-adaptive encoder schemes are designed, reliable throughputs under these two encoder schemes can be maximized by designing coding rates and optimizing transmission thresholds with the explicit/partial instantaneous channel state information (CSI) of the legitimate channel, respectively. Whats more, the impacts of main system parameters on the optimal throughput are further analyzed. Numerical results verify the effectiveness of transmission schemes, and verify impacts of main system parameters on the secure performance of the transmission systems with SOP constraints.
