Abstract

Due to dense and random deployment of dense heterogeneous cellular networks (HetNets), the systems are more susceptible to channel estimation errors, which effect secure and reliable transmission. To solve this problem, we propose a secure and reliable transmission scheme for dense HetNets based on secure Energy Efficiency (EE) Optimization. Firstly, the system model with channel estimation error is established. Then, transmission threshold selection algorithm is designed to maximize secure EE, and emission control is achieved by comparing the receiving signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) with the transmission threshold. Finally, secure EE constrained by the connection and secrecy probabilities is derived. Numerical results verify that the transmission scheme can increase secure EE by at least 50%.
