Abstract [en]
The usage of wireless communication has increased over the past few years. Most wired communications are replaced by wireless communication for ease of use. Wireless communication transfers confidential information like personal information and credentials between two entities. We can't probably say that it is safe to send this information via wireless communication. As more data is sent, more attacks happen to steal the data. Hence, it is necessary to implement secure methods to transfer the data between source and receiver.
In this communication channel, we use secrecy capacity as a parameter to measure how data is sent securely between source and destination. Generally, to achieve high system performance, the information is sent with low power, but this reduces the signal efficiency at the receiver. So, in this thesis, we have implemented cooperative transmission to increase the efficiency of low power signals by adding the relays between source and destination. This thesis consists of two relays. The relay that obtains the maximum signal-to-noise ratio is selected for the primary communication link. The other relay sends the signal to the eavesdropper to confuse the eavesdropper. In this thesis, we have derived the mathematical expression for SNR at receiver eavesdropper, and also we have derived a word for outage probability and secrecy capacity. Then, we simulated the Matlab code to obtain results on how the secrecy capacity affects by changing the various parameters like path loss exponent and fading severity parameter and suggests which environment is better to maintain high secrecy capacity. We also analysed the system performance and secrecy capacity in the presence of eavesdropper as well.
