However, it has been shown recently that exploiting known interference constructively can even contribute to signal detection ability at the receiving end. This paper exploits this concept to design artificial noise (AN) beamformers constructive to the intended receiver (IR) yet keeping AN disruptive to possible eavesdroppers (Eves). The scenario considered here is a multiple-input single-output (MISO) wiretap channel with multiple eavesdroppers. Both perfect and imperfect channel information have been considered. The main objective is to improve the receive signal-to-interference and noise ratio (SINR) at IR through exploitation of AN power in an attempt to minimize the total transmit power, while confusing the Eves. Numerical simulations demonstrate that the proposed constructive AN precoding approach yields superior performance over conventional AN schemes in terms of transmit power as well as symbol error rate (SER). date: 2018-09 official_url: http://doi.org/10.1109/TIFS.2018.2815541 oa_status: green full_text_type: pub language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green verified: verified_manual elements_id: 1200216 doi: 10.1109/TIFS.2018.2815541 lyricists_name: Khandaker, Muhammad lyricists_name: Masouros, Christos lyricists_name: Wong, Kai-Kit lyricists_id: MRAKH50 lyricists_id: CMASO14 lyricists_id: KWONG98 actors_name: Dewerpe, Marie actors_id: MDDEW97 actors_role: owner full_text_status: public publication: IEEE Transactions on Information Forensics and Security volume: 13 number: 9 citation: Khandaker, MRA; Masouros, C; Wong, K-K; (2018) Constructive Interference Based Secure Precoding: A New Dimension in Physical Layer Security.
