Abstract
In this paper, we investigate the secrecy performance of a full-duplex (FD) non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) relay system under the presence of multiple non-colluding eavesdroppers over Rayleigh fading channels. Furthermore, to improve legitimate link's capacity, the partial relay selection (PRS) scheme is applied to choose the best relay. To evaluate the secrecy performance, we derive the closed-form expressions of the secure outage probability (SOP) of each user, the overall SOP and the sum effective secrecy throughput (EST) of the considered FD-NOMA relay system. We compare the SOP of the FD-NOMA relay system with that of the half-duplex (HD)-NOMA system and the SOPs of FD-NOMA relay system in the cases that PRS and multiple-relay (MR) schemes are employed at multiple relays. Monte-Carlo simulations verify the correctness of all derived mathematical expressions. Numerical results show that thanks to utilizing FD relays and PRS scheme, the considered FD-NOMA relay system has superior secrecy performance than other systems. Furthermore, increasing the number of FD relays, enhancing their self-interference cancellation capability, and selecting a suitable transmission power help to reduce the SOP of the considered FD-NOMA relay system. Meanwhile, the EST rapidly increases with the equivocation rate of the eavesdropping channel then gradually reaches the saturated maximum value.
