Abstract-Recent studies on secure wireless communication have shed light on a scenario where interference has a desirable impact on network performance. Particularly, assuming independent interference power fluctuations at the eavesdropper and the receiver, opportunistic secure information transfer can occur on the legitimate link. However, interference is spatially correlated due to the common set of interfering sources, which may diminish the opportunistic secure spectrum access (OSSA) probability. We study and quantify the effect of spatial interference correlation on OSSA in cellular-networks and investigate the potential of full-duplex jamming (FDJ) solutions. The results highlight the scenarios where FDJ improves OSSA performance.
In REF , the authors studied the effect of spatial interference correlation on secure communication in the downlink of a Poisson cellular network where UEs have full-duplex jamming capability when an eavesdropper lies near the UE under consideration.
