Secure half-duplex dual-hop AF relaying networks with partial relay selection

In this paper, we focus on the half-duplex (HD) relaying with partial relay selection (PRS) scheme using destination-assisted jamming (DAJ). We consider one source (S), one destination (D), one passive eavesdropper and multiple amplify-and-forward (AF) relays. The relay node is selected based on the best instantaneous signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the first hop. Closed-form expressions for lower-bound of ergodic secrecy capacity (ESC) and secrecy outage probability (SOP) are derived over independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) Rayleigh fading environment. Moreover, we present a comparison between the proposed system and the secure AF relaying system with reactive relay selection (RRS). In the RRS, the relay is chosen based on the best SNR of the second hop. Simulation results are presented to verify the exactness of our proposed mathematical analysis.
