The Effect of Channel Estimation Error on Secrecy Outage Capacity of Dual Selection in the Presence of Multiple Eavesdroppers

Abstract

This work investigates the effect of channel estimation error on the average secrecy outage capacity of dual selection in the presence of multiple eavesdroppers. The dual selection selects a transmit antenna of Alice and Bob (i.e., user terminal) which provide the best received signal to noise ratio (SNR) using channel state information from every user terminals. Using Gaussian approximation, this paper obtains the tight analytical expression of the dual selection for the average secrecy outage capacity over channel estimation error and multiple eavesdroppers. Using asymptotic analysis, this work quantifies the high SNR power offset and the high SNR slope for the average secrecy outage capacity at high SNR.
