Abstract

Abstract

The existing researches on Coordinated Multi-Point transmission (CoMP) secure transmission in heterogeneous cellular networks mainly focus on improving the quality of the main channel to enhance security. However, CoMP also makes the average distance between base station and eavesdropper close which makes the security threat more severe. Based on secrecy guard zone, an enhanced CoMP policy is proposed in this paper. Then, the connection outage probability, secrecy outage probability and secrecy throughput are analyzed. Furthermore, the transmission power and power allocation factor are designed very carefully to maximize the secrecy throughput. Simulation results show that compared with conventional CoMP policy, the proposed policy can not only achieve non-zero secrecy throughput when faced with severe security threats (i.e. for larger eavesdropper density), but also improve the secrecy throughput of 76.1% at most when faced with small security threats (i.e. for smaller eavesdropper density).
