Abstract

This paper considers the transmission of confidential data over a quasi-static fading wiretap channel where the main and eavesdropper channels are correlated. Assuming that before transmission the transmitter knows the channel state information (CSI) of the main channel, we derive the secrecy outage probability in a closed-form expression based on a new secrecy outage probability formula, which gives a more explicit measure on the level of security compared with the previous one. Remarkably, our results, which cover the corresponding results when the main channel and eavesdropper channels are independent as special cases, reveal that channel correlation has a significant impact on secrecy outage probability and such impact can be helpful or harmful depending on the relative channel conditions and transmission SNR threshold.
