The increase in internet usage has resulted in an increase in both the number of malicious websites and cybercrimes reported over the years. Therefore, it has become critical to devise an intelligent solution that can detect malicious websites and be used in real-time systems. In our paper, we perform a comparative analysis of various feature selection techniques to build a time-efficient and accurate predictive model. To build our predictive model, a set of features are selected by feature selection methods. The selected features consist of at least 70% of the categorical features in all feature selection techniques examined in this paper. Keeping the end goal of real-time deployment of models in context the cost of processing or storing these features is far cheaper when compared to text or image-based features. We started out with a class imbalance in our data which was later dealt with using the Synthetic Minority Oversampling Technique. Our proposed model also bested the existing work in the literature when compared over various evaluation metrics. The result indicated that Embedded feature selection was the best technique considering the accuracy of the model. The Filter-based technique may also be used in the context of developing a low latency system at the cost of the accuracy of the model.","PeriodicalId":225911,"journal":{"name":"RS Open Journal on Innovative Communication Technologies","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128840428","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In such devices, the conventional cryptographic techniques may fail to provide secure communication. To fight this drawback, physical layer security (PLS) has remarkable potential to provide security solutions suitable for such applications. In this work, a highly effective PLS technique is proposed for providing secure communication against external and internal eavesdroppers in a downlink multi-cell, multi-user, and multi-carrier IoT communication system. In our proposed system, we considered two base stations, where each base station uses a single radio frequency (RF) chain to link two antennas that are used for the transmission of data. Further, we transmit the data in two rounds, and each round of transmission occurs through a single active antenna of each base station. A different antenna is used for each round of transmission to communicate with two single antenna IoT devices/users in the presence of a passive eavesdropper. In the proposed algorithm, frequency selective channel-based pre-coder matrices and the dual transmission approach are jointly employed. The dual-transmission is performed simultaneously from two base stations to provide security against internal and external eavesdroppers. The proposed system is suitable for IoT-based applications. Also, the potential capabilities of our proposed algorithm are proved by extensive mathematical and simulation analysis.","PeriodicalId":225911,"journal":{"name":"RS Open Journal on Innovative Communication Technologies","volume":"139 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121334808","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, one of the main undesirable features of MIMO-ANM-AAS, which is also the case with spatial modulation, is the fact that not all the available antennas are utilized for data transmission as some of these antennas are made inactive. To overcome this problem and utilize all available antennas, Multi-User MIMO-ANM-AAS is proposed in this paper as a novel non-orthogonal multi-access data transmission method that targets serving multiple users by dedicating the antennas used for implementing ANM to serve a far user, whereas the remaining antennas are used to send data for a near user. The fundamental idea behind the proposed scheme is to serve a far user, who is located in a distant location from the transmitter, by the antennas that are defined and utilized by the ANM modulation, while the remaining antennas are deployed to transmit a lower power data stream that is intended to be sent to a near user, who is located in a close proximity from the transmitter. By implementing this method, the near user can simply be served by allocating low transmission power to the antennas that are not used by ANM, whereas the far user is served by the antennas involved in the ANM modulation. By using such a transmission scheme, two users can be served simultaneously by a single MIMO-ANM architecture, and the obtained system reliability of the transmitted data stream for far user can be enhanced, while the capabilities of the antennas not used by ANM are not wasted, but instead utilized to serve an additional user, thus resulting in improving the overall spectral efficiency of the system. In this paper, the concepts of MU-MIMO-ANM-AAS are established on the basis of conventional MIMO using binary phase shift keying (BPSK) symbol modulation over a Rayleigh fading channel. The validity of the system is proven by exhibiting both theoretical analysis and computer simulations' results. Considering the acquired results, it can be said that the proposed MU-MIMO-ANM-AAS is an effective scheme that can satisfy the requirements of multi-user cases for future wireless systems demanding higher reliability and, better spectral efficiency.","PeriodicalId":225911,"journal":{"name":"RS Open Journal on Innovative Communication Technologies","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123420689","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A new modulation technique termed as orthogonal frequency division multiplexing with sub‐carrier power modulation (OFDM‐SPM) has recently been introduced. It is an original technique that is still largely under-explored and aims at transmitting more bits per sub‐carrier by manipulating the power of the sub‐carriers in an OFDM block, in addition to those bits that are usually transmitted by conventional modulation schemes such as M-PSK. During the investigation and theoretical testing stages, it was found that the additional data stream conveyed by subcarriers' power has higher bit error rate (BER) performance compared to the data stream conveyed by conventional modulation schemes. To overcome this shortfall, signal space diversity (SSD) along with coordinate interleaving is proposed in this work to be integrated with OFDM‐SPM to help improve the overall BER performance. By doing so, it is shown that a BER performance of 10-3 can be obtained at SNR of 15 dB, which means achieving an improvement of more than 5 dB compared to the case of using OFDM‐SPM without SSD. Furthermore, the performance results of OFDM‐SPM‐SSD is compared with those of OFDM‐SPM with maximal ratio combining (MRC) and the obtained results show that OFDM‐SPM‐SSD offers superior performance. Additionally, a study of the effect of the constellation rotation on OFDM‐SPM is provided and an in‐depth analysis is also carried out for different power polices of sub‐carrier power modulation with regards to two main performance metrics; namely BER and the throughput. Simulation results show that SSD provides a considerable improvement in the BER over both plain OFDM‐SPM and OFDM‐SPM‐MRC. The analysis also reveal that when considering the different power policies of SPM, the BER results are optimum in the case of using power‐reassignment policy.","PeriodicalId":225911,"journal":{"name":"RS Open Journal on Innovative Communication Technologies","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129706689","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Also, the ever-increasing demand for better wireless services has led to the continuous improvement and emergence of various wireless networks such as 5G and beyond networks. Beyond 5G communication systems (i.e., 6G) are envisioned to utilize technologies such as artificial intelligence, ultra-dense small cells, reconfigurable antennas, distributed networks, multi-band and full-duplex communications, as well as novel non-orthogonal multiple access methods. In this work, we first revisit and review the various current non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) techniques available in the literature and proposed by both academia and industry. Then, we discuss their strengths and weaknesses in different application areas. To address the limitations of the existing NOMA schemes, we develop and propose novel NOMA communication paradigms designed for achieving highly efficient, reliable, and secure multi-user communications using superimposed auxiliary signals and pre-coded matrices methods. The new proposed NOMA systems are motivated by the many limitations faced by current NOMA-based systems. For instance, power-domain NOMA is not included in release 17 of 3GPP as a work item. This is due to its performance degradation, resulting from successive interference cancellation (SIC) and channel estimation errors. The efficiency and novelty of the proposed models are presented via mathematical analysis and validated by Monte Carlo simulations.","PeriodicalId":225911,"journal":{"name":"RS Open Journal on Innovative Communication Technologies","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-12-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132944450","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this scheme, the main purpose is to increase the number of additionally transmitted data bits, which are sent without any consumption in the bandwidth. To achieve this, the antenna elements of a large array are divided into blocks, whose numbers are utilized to convey additional data bits along with those bits sent by the number of antenna elements within each block as well as those sent by conventional modulation schemes (e.g., BPSK). The implementation of M-MIMO-ANM scheme relies on the idea of dividing the whole antenna array into blocks, where each block corresponds to a group of bits depending on the total number of available blocks, thus ANM concept is applied not only to the antennas within each block but also to the blocks forming the entire antenna array. This creates an opportunity to convey even more additional data bits, compared with the conventional ANM scheme, while there is a noticeable improvement in the reliability of data transmission. With all these dynamics, M-MIMO-ANM concept is a candidate to create a new perspective to the Internet of Things (IoT) applications, with its energy efficient, spectrum efficient, robust, and both data and channel dependent data transmission nature that comes from the properties of Massive MIMO and ANM. The introduced system is investigated, and its validity is proven, where analytical and simulation results in terms of the bit error rate (BER) and throughput of the system are given. The numerical computer simulations furthermore compare the performances of M-MIMO-ANM with MIMO-ANM to show its superiority, and the advantages of the concept are discussed.

Auto-FRD paradigm uses drones to provide quick response to critical situations in a smart city setting. The system comprises three main sections: sensor network, intelligent drones, and the command center. The Auto-FRD system is designed such that the drones automatically deploy to a specific location upon receiving an alert signal from the smart sensors, as opposed to people sending the signal.
