Anti-Wiretap Spectrum-Sharing for Cooperative Cognitive Radio Communication Systems.

As wireless communication technology keeps progressing, people's requirements for wireless communication quality are getting higher and higher. Wireless communication brings convenience, but also causes some problems. On the one hand, the traditional static and fixed spectrum allocation strategy leads to high wastefulness of spectrum resources. The direction of improving the utility of spectrum resources by combining the advantages of cooperative communication and cognitive radio has attracted the attention of many scholars. On the other hand, security of communication is becoming an important issue because of the broadcasting nature and openness of wireless communication. Physical-layer security has been brought into focus due to the possibility of improving the security in wireless communication. In this paper, we propose an anti-wiretap spectrum-sharing scheme for cooperative cognitive radio communication systems which can secure the information transmission for the two transmission phases of the cooperative communication. We maximized the secondary system transmission rate by jointly optimizing power and bandwidth while ensuring the primary system achieves its secrecy transmission rate. Useful insights of the proposed anti-wiretap spectrum-sharing scheme are given in the simulation results. Moreover, several system parameters are shown to have a big impact for the simulation results.
