Information-Theoretic Security in Hyper Gamma Fading Channel

Abstract

In this paper, the information-theoretic security of a confidential data transmitting through Hyper Gamma fading channel from a source to a receiver in the existence of an eavesdropper has been analyzed. The Hyper Gamma fading model is befitting to the cognitive radio channel as it is dynamic in nature. So, with a view to investigate the security of Hyper Gamma fading channel, the closed form expressions (CFEs) of ergodic secrecy capacity (ESC), probability of non-zero secrecy capacity (PNSC) and secure outage probability (SOP) have been derived in this paper. The numerical data is also presented here to understand the effects of environment fading and average signal to noise ratio of the communication medium. Moreover, the numerical data are verified through Monte-Carlo Simulations.
