This paper is persuaded to understand the physical layer security in wireless commu-nications utilizing NOMA (Non Orthogonal Multiple Access) concepts in the presence

of an eavesdropper. Physical layer security maintains the confidentiality and secrecyof the system against eavesdroppers. We use the power domain in this paper, where

NOMA allows many users to share resources side by side. Power allocation concern-ing channel condition is taken into consideration where user whose channel condition

is weak is allocated with eminent power to directly decode the signal, whereas theuser with better channel condition applies successive interference cancellation (SIC)to decode the signal. Here, the base station communicates with the users and sends

data signals while the eavesdropper secretly eavesdrops on the confidential informa-tion simultaneously.

In this thesis, to improve the physical layer security, jamming method was usedwhere users are assumed to be in full duplex, send jamming signals to degrade the

performance of the eavesdropper. Analytic expressions of CDF, PDF, outage proba-bility and secrecy capacity are obtained from analyzing the NOMA jamming scheme.

The numerical results are evaluated with the simulations results and analysed theeffect of jamming on improving the performance of the NOMA system in presenceof an eavesdropper.
