A Solution of Binary Jamming Message to Source-Wiretapping and Disadvantage of Sharing the Jamming Signal in Physical-Layer Security

A distributed zero-beamforming based cooperative jamming technique is useless when an eavesdropper detects the sharing seed. In addition, the currently alternatives are very limited when the eavesdropper is located nearby a source for wiretapping. This letter presents a solution to this extreme case. Relay randomly generates and transmits a binary jamming message to both source and destination in the first phase. When these two receivers securely and correctly decode the message, the source creates and transmits another message based on the use of exclusive-or for its information message and the decoded message. Consequently, the next transmission can avoid the eavesdropping.
