Artificial Jamming Assisted Secure Transmission for MISO-NOMA Networks

Secure transmission remains a challenge for Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA). In this paper, we propose a novel scheme to generate artificial jamming at the NOMA base station (BS), aiming at disrupting the potential eavesdropping without affecting the legitimate transmission. In the scheme, the transmit power of artificial jamming is maximized, with its received power at each receiver higher than that of other users. Thus, the jamming signal can be eliminated via successive interference cancellation before others, and the eavesdropping can be disrupted effectively. Due to the non-convexity of the optimization problems, we first convert it to a convex one and then provide an iterative algorithm to solve it. Simulation results are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed scheme in guaranteeing the security of NOMA networks.
