Physical Layer Security Game: How to Date a Girl with Her Boyfriend on the Same Table

Résumé

Physical layer security is an emerging security technology that achieves perfect secrecy data transmission between the intended network nodes, while the eavesdrop- ping malicious nodes obtain zero information. The so-called secrecy capacity can be improved using friendly jammers that introduce extra interference to the eavesdropping ma- licious nodes while the interference to the intended desti- nation is limited. In this paper, we investigate the interac- tion between the source that transmits the desired data and friendly jammers who assist the source by \disguising" the eavesdropper. In order to obtain a distributed solution, we introduce a game theoretic approach. The game is de¯ned in such a way that the source pays the friendly jammers to interfere the eavesdropper, therefore increasing its secrecy capacit; and the friendly jammers charge the source with a certain price for the jamming. There is a tradeo® for the price: If the price is too low, the pro¯t of the jammers is low; and if the price is too high, the source would not buy the \service" (jamming power) or would buy it from other jammers. To analyze the game outcome, we de¯ne and in- vestigate a Stackelburg game and construct a distributed algorithm. Our analysis and simulation results show the ef- fectiveness of friendly jamming and the tradeo® for setting the price. The fancy title comes from the fact that it is similar to a scenario where the main character, namely the \source" tries to send a dating message to a lady (the in- tended destination), whose poor boyfriend plays the role of the eavesdropper that may hear the message. Friends of the source, the so called \friendly jammers," try to distract the boyfriend, so that the dating message can be secretly trans- mitted. The game is de¯ned in order to derive what is the optimal price that the friends can charge for this \friendly" action.
