Diversity order and array gain were also achieved for further insight. The study was based on the information theory that physical layer security can be guaranteed when the quality of the main channel is higher than that of the eavesdropper's channel. Monte Carlo simulations well validated the numerical results of analytic expressions. It was shown that antenna correlation is detrimental to secrecy performance when average SNR of the main channel is at medium and high level. Interestingly, when average SNR of the main channel reduces to low level, the effect of antenna correlation becomes benefi cial to secrecy performance.展开更多

Since the smart devices may be deployed in dynamic areas where are out of strict monitoring and protection, fog computing requires security protections to ensure confidentiality and integrity. In this article, to deal with security requirements and considering the distinctive features, a key management based on hypergraph schemed is designed. Firstly, based on the key hypergraph, the three hierarchy architecture of fog computing is divided into two subnetworks. Furthermore, each key management process of both two subnetworks is designed to satisfy the operational and security requirements of fog computing. Finally, the performance evaluation and numerical simulation have been provided to validate the proposed scheme.展开更多
