Secrecy Outage Probability of a NOMA Scheme and Impact Imperfect Channel State Information in Underlay Cooperative Cognitive Networks.

Security performance and the impact of imperfect channel state information (CSI) in underlay cooperative cognitive networks (UCCN) is investigated in this paper. In the proposed scheme, relay R uses non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) technology to transfer messages e 1 , e 2 from the source node S to User 1 (U 1 ) and User 2 (U 2 ), respectively. An eavesdropper (E) is also proposed to wiretap the messages of U 1 and U 2 . The transmission's security performance in the proposed system was analyzed and performed over Rayleigh fading channels. Through numerical analysis, the results showed that the proposed system's secrecy performance became more efficient when the eavesdropper node E was farther away from the source node S and the intermediate cooperative relay R. The secrecy performance of U 1 was also compared to the secrecy performance of U 2 . Finally, the simulation results matched the Monte Carlo simulations well.

Hybrid TSR⁻PSR Alternate Energy Harvesting Relay Network over Rician Fading Channels: Outage Probability and SER Analysis.

In this research, we investigate a hybrid time-switching relay (TSR)⁻power-splitting relay (PSR) alternate energy harvesting (EH) relaying network over the Rician fading channels. For this purpose, the amplify-and-forward (AF) mode is considered for the alternative hybrid time TSR⁻PSR. The system model consists of one source, one destination and two alternative relays for signal transmission from the source to the destination. In the first step, the exact and asymptotic expressions of the outage probability and the symbol errors ratio (SER) are derived. Then, the influence of all system parameters on the system performance is investigated, and the Monte Carlo simulation verifies all results. Finally, the system performances of TSR⁻PSR, TSR, and PSR cases are compared in connection with all system parameters.
