Abstract

This paper elucidate the accomplishment of security in wireless multicasting through composite Rayleigh/log-normal shadowing channels under partial relay selection strategy. Same information is transmitted by a source, S to a set of M destination users via K relays, and N eavesdroppers situated nearby the users try to overhear the message. It is assumed that there are no ways of communication between source and destinations as well as eavesdroppers bypassing the relays. A routing scheme selects the best link between source and relays by tracing the dissonances in fading, path-loss and shadowing. Based on the probability density function of signal-to-noise ratio of the best relay link and taking into account the effects of distances from (i) source to relays and (ii) relays to destinations and eavesdroppers, the analytical expressions for the ergodic secrecy multicast capacity and the secure outage probability for multicasting have been derived for analyzing the performance of the proposed model. Our results disclose that the diversity created by the best relay link due to partial relay selection unquestionably enhances the security in multicasting.
