Physical Layer Security in Heterogeneous Cellular Networks
Physical Layer Security in Heterogeneous Cellular Networks
The heterogeneous cellular network (HCN) is a promising approach to the deployment of 5G cellular networks. This paper comprehensively studies physical layer security in a multitier HCN where base stations (BSs), authorized users, and eavesdroppers are all randomly located. We first propose an access threshold-based secrecy mobile association policy that …
