Description

Hiding rate joint optimization method and system for reconfigurable intelligent surface auxiliary communication
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of wireless communication, in particular to application of a reconfigurable intelligent surface technology in the aspect of covert communication, and more particularly relates to a method and a system for jointly optimizing the covert rate of reconfigurable intelligent surface auxiliary communication.
Background
A reconfigurable intelligent interactive surface (RIS) is a software-controlled meta-surface consisting of a large number of passive scattering elements or reflecting elements. By manipulating the phase of the impinging signal in a full-duplex manner, the RIS is able to shape the randomly fading channel environment into an intelligent environment to achieve an intelligent and reconfigurable wireless environment. Unlike traditional active transport, the RIS does not require a transport radio frequency chain, which reduces energy and hardware costs compared to existing active component-based technologies. Inspired by the potential capabilities of RIS, RIS-assisted wireless communication has received a great deal of research attention.
Unlike conventional encryption techniques that aim to protect confidential information content, covert communication is intended to protect the presence of legitimate transmissions, or to prevent a malicious eavesdropper from detecting the communication. Covert communication has a higher level of security than existing encryption techniques. The wireless covert communication based on the physical layer hides information in noise, and by using the physical layer security method, a legal user can block the detection of a monitor by using the inherent properties of uncertainty of a wireless channel, randomness of noise and the like. Different from the traditional cryptography method, the covert communication not only ensures that the content of the transmitted information is not stolen, but also ensures that the existence of the information in the transmission process is not discovered.
Publication No. 2020.8.13: the method applies the RIS technology to a Covert communication system and applies the RIS to assist in enhancing the Covert rate. The covert rate is the rate at which a legitimate user receives information without eavesdropping. However, in the prior art, only the false detection rate constraint is considered, and the adopted model is too ideal and has a large difference with the actual application, so that the method still has limitations.

and S4, solving the joint optimization problem according to the channel state information to obtain the optimal combination of the transmitting power and the reflection phase.

Example 1
A joint optimization method for hidden rate of reconfigurable intelligent surface-assisted communication, please refer to fig. 1, comprising the following steps:
s1, constructing a covert communication model consisting of a transmitter, a legal receiver, an illegal detector and a reconfigurable intelligent surface;
s2, constructing a joint optimization problem which aims to maximize the concealment rate and takes the transmitting power of the transmitter and the reflection phase of the reconfigurable intelligent surface as variables to be optimized according to the covert communication model;
s3, acquiring channel state information among the transmitter, the legal receiver, the illegal detector and the reconfigurable intelligent surface;
and S4, solving the joint optimization problem according to the channel state information to obtain the optimal combination of the transmitting power and the reflection phase.
Compared with the prior art, the method and the device have the advantages that under the condition that the information sent by the transmitter is not detected, the transmitting power of the transmitter and the reflection phase of the reconfigurable intelligent surface are jointly optimized, so that the receiving power of the legal receiver is maximized, and the covert communication rate is optimized; in the optimization process, the condition of variable coupling is well avoided, and the concealment of the wireless communication system can be better improved.
Specifically, in an alternative embodiment, referring to fig. 2, the covert communication model includes a transmitter Alice comprising a single antenna; the legal receiver Bob is a single-antenna receiver; illegal detector Willie is a single antenna user that configures the power detector; the reconfigurable intelligent surface RIS is composed of N reflection elements and used for reflecting signals sent by the transmitter and playing a role in assisting relay. The communication scene of the covert communication model is as follows: the method is characterized in that a transmitter Alice transmits information to a legal receiver Bob in a concealed mode, a potential illegal detector Willie finds that communication is carried out between the transmitter Alice and the legal receiver Bob, and the RIS is deployed between the Alice and the Bob and tries to strengthen signals transmitted to the Bob in a relay reflection process and weaken signals transmitted to the Willie in the relay reflection process.
As a preferred embodiment, the covert communication model employs a bounded uncertainty model of channel uncertainty and the presence of noise uncertainty at the position of the illegal detector.
Specifically, in the covert communication model, the detection strategy of the illegal detector Willie is as follows:
first, the received signal of the illegal detector Willie is

Wherein H 0 Indicating that the transmitter Alice has not sent information to the legitimate receiver Bob, H 1 Indicating that the transmitter Alice sends information to a legitimate receiver Bob, n w Is additive white gaussian noise where illegal detector Willie is located,

wherein the content of the first and second substances,
Figure BDA0003071550200000083
to be provided with
Figure BDA0003071550200000084
Due to the existence of channel uncertainty, channel estimation errors exist in the reflection link generated by the reconfigurable intelligent surface RIS, and thenIs provided with

Wherein

In the covert communication model, a Probability Density Function (PDF) of noise is a function of a probability density of noise (PDF), which may be caused by changes in temperature and environmental noise, corresponding to an actual application environment
Figure BDA0003071550200000087
For illegal detector Willie, if binary detection is used, its acceptance power is
Figure BDA0003071550200000088
Wherein H 0 Indicating that the transmitter Alice has not sent information to the legitimate receiver Bob, H 1 Indicating that the transmitter Alice sends information to the legitimate receiver Bob; for illegal detector Willie for certain channels in the cascade of reflection links from transmitter Alice to illegal detector Willie
Figure BDA0003071550200000089
The detection performance of the illegal detector Willie adopts a false detection rate
Figure BDA00030715502000000810
To measure, P FA Is false alarm (false alarm) probability, P MD Probability of missing detection:
Figure BDA00030715502000000811
Figure BDA00030715502000000812
D 0 meaning that no information transmission is detected by the illegal detector Willie, D 1 Indicating Willie detected presence information transmission and λ represents false detection rate threshold, the false detection rate of illegal detector Willie can be written as follows:
Figure BDA00030715502000000813
generally speaking, the illegal detector Willie needs to set an optimal value for the false detection rate threshold so as to minimize the false detection rate, i.e. the illegal detector Willie needs to set the optimal value
Figure BDA0003071550200000091
The detection performance of the illegal detector Willie is strongest under the optimal value, so that the condition that the transmitter Alice sends information to the legal receiver Bob is not easy to miss detection, and the condition that the transmitter Alice does not send information to the legal receiver Bob is not easy to falsely alarm; in contrast, under the optimal value, the threat faced by covert communication is the largest, and the performance requirement on the communication system is also the highest; therefore, for the embodiment, on one hand, the covert communication adopts a bounded uncertain model with uncertain channels and noise uncertainty at the position of the illegal detector, and is closer to the practical application scene, and meanwhile, the transmission of covert information is well protected due to environment noise and the uncertainty of an eavesdropper on the channels, which is beneficial to enhancing the concealment; on the other hand, an optimal value is set for the false detection rate threshold of the illegal detector Willie in the covert communication model, and joint optimization is performed on the basis, so that the method is closer to the practical application scene, and the finally obtained joint optimization effect is better.
In particular, to

Wherein, I 0 (. DEG) is a zero-order first modified Bessel function, which can be obtained from the formula
Figure BDA0003071550200000095
When in use
Figure BDA0003071550200000096
Then, the second integral in the above formula is 0, and the false detection rate is then determined

When in use

When the temperature of the water is higher than the set temperature,
Figure BDA0003071550200000099
is an increasing function with respect to λ; therefore, to minimize the false detection rate, the value range of the optimal detection threshold should be within
Figure BDA00030715502000000910
In this range, the false detection rate is
Figure BDA0003071550200000101
Wherein
Figure BDA0003071550200000102
From the above formulaIn the knowledge that,
Figure BDA0003071550200000103
for λ being a monotonically decreasing function, and therefore, in a preferred embodiment, to minimize the false detection rate, the illegal detector optimally takes the value of the false detection rate threshold λ for communications between the transmitter and the legitimate receiver as
Figure BDA0003071550200000104
Wherein p represents the noise uncertainty at the location of the illegal detector,
Figure BDA0003071550200000105
representing an upper noise bound in the noise uncertainty.
Meanwhile, the corresponding minimum false detection rate is
Figure BDA0003071550200000106
The joint optimization method of the embodiment is to realize the receiving rate of the legal receiver Bob by jointly optimizing the transmitting power of the transmitter Alice and the reflection phase of the reconfigurable intelligent surface RIS
Figure BDA0003071550200000107
Due to monotonicity of the logarithmic function in the expression of the reception rate of the legitimate receiver Bob, the optimization goal of the joint optimization can be simplified equivalently to pursuing the reception power of the legitimate receiver Bob
Figure BDA0003071550200000108
Maximization of (2); in other words, in the present embodiment, maximizing the reception power is maximizing the reception rate.
Therefore, as a preferred embodiment, the joint optimization problem is expressed by the following formula:
Figure BDA0003071550200000109
s.t.P a ≤P max
Figure BDA00030715502000001010
Figure BDA00030715502000001011
wherein, the first and the second end of the pipe are connected with each other,
Figure BDA00030715502000001012
representing the reflected phase, P, of a reconfigurable smart surface a Is represented by h AB Indicating channel state information between the transmitter and the legitimate receiver, h IB Representing channel state information between reconfigurable smart surfaces and legitimate receivers, h AI Representing channel state information between the transmitter and the reconfigurable smart surface, P max Denotes the transmit power limit, h, of the transmitter AW The method comprises the steps of representing channel state information between a transmitter and an illegal detector, representing a false detection rate threshold of the illegal detector for communication between the transmitter and a legal receiver, and representing the total number of reflection elements of a reconfigurable intelligent surface.
In particular, in the second constraint term of the joint optimization problem, two variables to be optimized, namely the transmission power P of the transmitter a Reflection phase with reconfigurable smart surface
Figure BDA0003071550200000111
Coupling exists between the two, and the third constraint is not a convex set, so the optimization problem is a non-convex problem, and the optimal solution is difficult to directly solve;
therefore, further referring to fig. 3, in the step S4, the following steps are included:
s41, according to the value of the transmitting power, decomposing the joint optimization problem into a first sub-problem and a second sub-problem, wherein only the reflection phase is reserved as a variable to be optimized;
s42, respectively solving the first sub-problem and the second sub-problem to obtain a first optimal concealment rate and a second optimal concealment rate;
s43, calculating the optimal combination of the transmitting power and the reflection phase according to the first optimal concealment rate and the second optimal concealment rate.
Specifically, as can be seen from the expression of the joint optimization problem, the transmission power of one of the variables to be optimized is set to be
Figure BDA0003071550200000112
Therefore, according to the value of the transmitting power, the joint optimization problem can be split into only one variable reflection phase to be optimized
Figure BDA0003071550200000113
The two subproblems are solved respectively to obtain respective optimal solutions of the two subproblems, and then the solution with better performance is taken as the global optimal solution.
Further, in step S41, the transmit power is limited
Figure BDA0003071550200000114
In case of (1), take P a =P max The joint optimization problem will be expressed as

For the purpose of the first preferred rate of concealment,
Figure BDA0003071550200000148
is the second preferred concealment rate.
As a preferred embodiment, the covert communication model employs a bounded uncertainty model of channel uncertainty and the presence of noise uncertainty at the position of the illegal detector;
the optimal value of the false detection rate threshold lambda of the illegal detector for the communication between the transmitter and the legal receiver is
Figure BDA0003071550200000149
Where p represents the noise uncertainty at the location of the illegal detector,

Next, a comparison between a simulation experiment and two existing optimization strategies, namely a fixed RIS phase and a fixed transmit power, will be described, and please refer to fig. 4 and 5 for a comparison result of the simulation experiment, where a vertical coordinate is a concealment rate, a horizontal coordinate of fig. 4 is the number of RIS reflection elements, and a horizontal coordinate of fig. 5 is a noise uncertainty; therefore, compared with two existing optimization strategies of a fixed RIS phase and a fixed transmitting power, the concealment rate joint optimization method for the reconfigurable intelligent surface auxiliary communication provided by the embodiment has better improvement on the concealment rate; at the same time, we can also find out from it: as the number of RIS reflection elements increases, the hiding rate of legitimate users will also increase. As the noise uncertainty increases, the concealment rate for legitimate users increases; but with the prior art, the noise uncertainty increases more slowly for the user's concealment rate; for joint optimization, the noise uncertainty has a large influence on the concealment rate of a legal user, the noise uncertainty is increased, and the concealment rate is relatively obviously improved.
