Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of wireless communication technology, specifically relating to a method and system for selecting transmission strategies in a buffer-assisted relay network (NOMA / OMA). Background Technology

[0002] Relays can retransmit or forward data signals to extend network transmission distance. Existing relay transmission technologies employ a fixed strategy for sending and receiving. In half-duplex relay systems, a one-to-one transmit / receive strategy is used: data is sent from the transmitter to the relay in one time slot, and the relay immediately forwards the data to the receiver in the next time slot, alternating in this manner. However, this relay transmission strategy is significantly affected by instantaneous channel conditions. Buffer-assisted relay transmission technology can overcome the shortcomings of traditional fixed relay transmission strategies. By setting up a buffer at the relay, the relay can store data sent from the transmitter without adhering to the traditional one-to-one transmit / receive fixed transmission strategy, thus allowing for more flexible selection of transmission strategies and increasing the freedom of link selection.

[0003] In the development of 5G wireless networks, Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) technology has become a forward-looking technology for future resource-constrained mobile networks due to its superior performance, including low network latency, large-scale device access capability, improved user fairness, and high throughput. It is also an important principle in wireless access technology design. Compared to traditional Orthogonal Multiple Access (OMA) technology, its core idea is to provide services to multiple users within the same resource block, while OMA can only provide services to a single user. Therefore, NOMA systems place greater emphasis on improving user fairness and generally achieve better performance than OMA systems.

[0004] Current literature considers NOMA transmission systems with buffer-assisted relays, including but not limited to studies on throughput-based link selection strategies, buffer state-based link selection strategies, and power allocation-based link selection strategies. Some studies indicate that OMA performance may outperform NOMA when the channel power gain of two users is not significantly different. Therefore, hybrid NOMA / OMA transmission systems with buffer-assisted relays have attracted considerable attention from researchers, with current focus primarily on either the uplink or downlink. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this invention is to address the shortcomings of the prior art by providing a method and system for selecting NOMA / OMA transmission strategies in a buffer-assisted relay network. This method considers the confidentiality rate under different strategies and the balance between sending and receiving data in the buffer at the relay in a dynamic system. It is used to solve the technical problems of traditional relays, such as instant transmission and reception, low degree of freedom in information transmission, and easy loss of information transmission packets, thereby optimizing the performance of traditional solutions.

[0006] The present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A method for selecting transmission strategies in a buffer-assisted relay network (NOMA / OMA) is proposed. Based on an information security transmission system model, a link service quality model between the source node and the relay node, a node forwarding capability model between the relay node and the destination node, and an information eavesdropping model between the eavesdropping node and the source node and relay nodes are constructed. A transmission strategy selection mechanism is built based on these models. The average security level of the transmission system is calculated using Lyapunov optimization theory, and a drift plus utility minimization problem is constructed. Finally, based on the transmission strategy selection mechanism, a transmission strategy is selected by minimizing the drift plus utility problem related to the average security level of the transmission system.

[0008] Specifically, the information security transmission system model includes transmitters S1 and S2, destination nodes D1 and D2, relay node R, and eavesdropping node E. Transmitters S1 and S2 communicate securely with their corresponding destination nodes D1 and D2 through relay node R. Relay node R is equipped with buffers Q1 and Q2, which are used to store data from transmitters S1 and S2, respectively.

[0009] Specifically, the quality of service model for the link between the source node and the relay node is constructed as follows:

[0016] Specifically, the node forwarding capability model between relay nodes and destination nodes is constructed as follows:

[0017] In time slot t, when relay node R uses NOMA technology to forward privacy information, the receiving node D is determined. i Received signal at the location for:

[0018]

[0019] Where i = 1, 2, and These are the transmission powers of relay node R forwarding information from transmitters S1 and S2 to destination nodes D1 and D2, respectively; P r x is the maximum transmit power of relay node R. r1 (t) and x r2 (t) represents the privacy signals of transmitters S1 and S2, n i (t) and n e (t) represent the destination node D. i And the received noise of the eavesdropping node E;

[0023] Specifically, the method for constructing an information eavesdropping model between the eavesdropping node and the source node and relay node is as follows:

[0025]

[0026] in, Indicates transmitter S i The channel coefficient to the eavesdropping node, n e (t) represents the received noise of E;

[0027] When transmitters S1 and S2 use OMA technology to transmit privacy information, the signal y received at the eavesdropping node E is determined. e (t) is:

[0028]

[0029] in, x represents the transmission power of transmitters S1 and S2. i (t) represents the transmitted signals of transmitters S1 and S2, where i = 1 or i = 2;

[0030] When a relay node uses NOMA technology to transmit private information, determine the signal y received at the eavesdropping node E. e (t) is:

[0031]

[0032] in, Indicates transmitter S i The channel coefficients to the eavesdropping node, i = 1, 2;

[0033] When a relay node uses OMA technology to transmit private information, the signal y received at the eavesdropping node E is determined. e (t) is:

[0034]

[0035] in, The forwarding power allocated to relaying messages through two buffers, x i (t) represents the privacy signal recovered by the relay from transmitters S1 and S2, where i = 1 or i = 2.

[0036] Specifically, the transmission strategy selection mechanism is as follows:

[0037] Transmitters S1 and S2 employ the NOMA secure transmission scheme; transmitter S1 or S2 employs the OMA secure transmission scheme; relay node R employs the NOMA secure transmission scheme; relay node R employs the OMA secure transmission scheme; eavesdropping node E uses SIC technology to decode the acquired information.

[0038] Furthermore, the optimization problem for transmitters S1 and S2 using the NOMA secure transmission scheme is as follows:

[0039]

[0040]

[0041]

[0042]

[0043] The OMA secure transmission scheme used by transmitter S1 or S2 is as follows:

[0049]

[0050]

[0051] The relay node R uses the OMA secure transmission scheme as follows:

[0052]

[0053]

[0054]

[0055]

[0056] Among them, Q i (t) represents the information value stored in the i-th buffer of relay R at time t. Let R be the actual transmission rate between the i-th transmitter and the relay R. Assign a power value, P, to the i-th transmitter. s q represents the maximum transmitter power. i (t) is defined as an integer with values ​​of 0 and 1, where different values ​​represent different link selections and transmission mode selections. Let R be the theoretical maximum transmission rate between the i-th transmitter and the relay R. Let V and θ be the Lyapunov theoretical control parameters. Power used for forwarding information in the i-th buffer of relay R, P r This represents the theoretical maximum power of relay forwarding information.

[0057] Furthermore, the drift plus utility minimization problem specifically refers to:

[0062]

[0063] Where V and θ are the control parameters that balance queue stability and maximize long-term confidentiality. Let Q be the actual transmission rate between the i-th transmitter and the relay R. i Θ(t) represents the information value stored in the i-th buffer of relay R at time t, and Θ(t) represents the set of parameters under long-term average at time t. Assign a power value, P, to the i-th transmitter. s P is the maximum transmitter power. r This represents the theoretical maximum power of relay forwarding information.

[0064] Furthermore, the drift-plus-utility function is as follows:

[0065] Δ(Θ(t))-VE{R sec |Θ(t)}

[0066] Among them, R sec This refers to the actual secure information transmission rate.

[0067] Secondly, embodiments of the present invention provide a buffer-assisted relay network NOMA / OMA transmission strategy selection system, characterized in that it includes:

[0068] The module constructs a link service quality model between the source node and the relay node, a node forwarding capability model between the relay node and the destination node, and an information eavesdropping model between the eavesdropping node and the source node and the relay node, based on the information security transmission system model.

[0069] The strategy module constructs a transmission strategy selection mechanism based on the link service quality model between the source node and the relay node, the node forwarding capability model between the relay node and the destination node, and the information eavesdropping model between the eavesdropping node and the source node and the relay node.

[0070] The optimization module calculates the average security rate of the transmission system using Lyapunov optimization theory and constructs a drift plus utility minimization problem.

[0071] The selection module, based on the transmission strategy selection mechanism obtained from the strategy module, combines the drift and utility minimization problem of the average confidentiality rate of the transmission system obtained from the optimization module to select the transmission strategy.

[0072] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0073] A method for selecting NOMA / OMA transmission strategy in a buffer-assisted relay network is proposed. This method combines the uplink and downlink to form a complete sender-to-receiver information transmission network. This network incorporates buffer-assisted relay assistance and, based on maximizing security, utilizes Lyapunov optimization theory to jointly optimize power allocation and transmission strategy. The transmission strategy includes flexible selection of transmission links (uplink / downlink) and transmission modes (NOMA / OMA). Simultaneously, NOMA or OMA transmission systems without buffer assistance are investigated and used as benchmark schemes. Simulation results show that adaptive transmission strategy selection effectively improves system security performance. Furthermore, in transmission systems with buffer-assisted relays, the system security improves with increasing buffer assistance and capacity limits, but there is an upper limit for matching the channel.

[0074] Furthermore, an information security transmission system model is constructed, comprising two transmitters, two destination nodes, a relay station equipped with two buffers, and an eavesdropping node. The purpose of the two transmitters, S1 and S2, is to securely communicate with their respective destinations D1 and D2, but the transmission process is threatened by eavesdropping from an eavesdropper, E. There is no direct communication link between the transmitters and destinations; secure information transmission is assisted by the relay node R, which is equipped with two buffers, Q1 and Q2, used to store data from S1 and S2, respectively.

[0075] Furthermore, based on the link service quality model between the source node and the relay node, the node forwarding capability model between the relay node and the destination node, and the information eavesdropping model between the eavesdropping node and the source node and relay node, a transmission strategy selection mechanism is constructed, specifically including: (a) S1 and S2 adopt the NOMA secure transmission scheme; (b) S1 and S2 adopt the OMA secure transmission scheme; (c) R adopts the NOMA secure transmission scheme; (d) R adopts the OMA secure transmission scheme. Combining CSI and other information, selecting the strategy that maximizes the objective function can improve the long-term average confidentiality rate, thereby optimizing the system's secure transmission rate.

[0076] Furthermore, two transmission mechanisms, NOMA and OMA, are introduced. Traditional cellular communication systems primarily use Orthogonal Multiple Access (OMA), which can easily separate the information carried by different user signals with low complexity. However, a drawback of OMA is that the number of users it supports is limited by the amount of available orthogonal resources. If limited to OMA alone, it's impossible to connect more users within limited resources, thus failing to meet the spectral efficiency and massive connectivity requirements of 5G. NOMA, on the other hand, enables the reuse of limited spectrum resources by separating each user's data at the receiving end using advanced receiver technology. Compared to OMA, NOMA significantly improves transmission rates and system capacity, and also offers greater advantages in user fairness, scheduling flexibility, and overall transmission rate.

[0077] Furthermore, we introduce the Lyapunov optimization theory and define the Lyapunov function. To maintain queue stability and maximize the average security rate, we obtain the drift plus utility function through theoretical analysis. By combining the long-term security rate maximization problem with the Lyapunov framework, we express the optimization problem as drift plus utility minimization, which simplifies the computational complexity. We rewrite the multi-slot optimization problem as a single-slot security rate maximization problem, thus facilitating the solution of the problem.

[0078] It is understandable that the beneficial effects of the second aspect mentioned above can be found in the relevant descriptions in the first aspect mentioned above, and will not be repeated here.

[0079] In summary, this invention effectively considers the system confidentiality rate under different transmission links and transmission methods, and maximizes the system's secure transmission rate.

[0093] Please see Figure 1 The present invention provides a method for selecting a NOMA / OMA transmission strategy in a buffer-assisted relay network, comprising the following steps:

[0094] S1. Construct an information security transmission system model consisting of 2 transmitters, 2 destination nodes, a relay node equipped with 2 buffers, and a listening node;

[0095] In the information security transmission system model, the purpose of the two transmitters S1 and S2 is to communicate securely with their respective destinations D1 and D2, but the transmission process is threatened by eavesdropping by an eavesdropper E.

[0096] There is no direct communication between the transmitter and the destination. Secure transmission of information is assisted by relay node R. The relay station is equipped with two buffers, Q1 and Q2, which are used to store data from S1 and S2, respectively.

[0180] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. The components of the embodiments of the present invention described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0181] This invention studies a secure transmission system in which two transmitters wish to securely send information to their respective destinations with the aid of buffers. For the system under consideration, the proposed scheme is based on Lyapunov optimization theory, balancing long-term security and queue stability by jointly optimizing power allocation and transmission strategies. The transmission strategies include link selection (first hop and second hop) and mode selection (non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) and orthogonal multiple access (OMA)). Simulation results verify that the proposed scheme outperforms the traditional unbuffered NOMA / OMA transmission system in terms of security.

[0182] In the network, two transmitters, S1 and S2, aim to securely communicate with their respective destinations, D1 and D2, but the transmission process is threatened by eavesdropping by an eavesdropper, E. Due to obstacles and the long transmission distance, there is no direct communication link between the transmitters and the destinations. Secure information transmission is assisted by a relay node R, which is equipped with two buffers, Q1 and Q2, to store data from S1 and S2, respectively. The buffers provided by the relay station offer high-quality, flexible link selection. Furthermore, this paper assumes that all nodes have only one antenna and operate in half-duplex transmission mode. This system can capture device-to-device communication scenarios where two transmitters share limited spectrum resources for secure transmission.

[0183] In this system, each frame is divided into multiple time slots of duration T. All channels follow a flat Rayleigh fading pattern, indicating that channel quality remains constant within a single time slot but varies independently across different time slots. This invention uses... and These represent the channel coefficients from the transmitter to the relay and from the relay to the destination, respectively. and The channel power gains are respectively expressed as

[0184] In addition, privacy information is obtained through channel coefficients respectively and h re The channel is acquired by the eavesdropping node E, where their channel power gains are respectively expressed as... and g re =|h re | 2 .

[0185] The maximum transmission power of transmitters S1 and S2 is P s The maximum transmit power of R is expressed as P. r For legitimate channels, instantaneous channel state information (CSI) is obtained through leader estimation. However, due to passive eavesdropping, eavesdropping CSI cannot be obtained; therefore, channel distribution information (CDI) is assumed to be available. Furthermore, the received noise in this system is circularly symmetric complex zero-mean white Gaussian noise, denoted as N0.

[0186] To improve spectrum efficiency, NOMA technology is used in information transmission, and SIC technology is used in information decoding.

[0187] However, since the channel coefficients are constantly changing, secure NOMA transmission may not be possible, prompting continued consideration of OMA technology. If the transmitter and S2 use NOMA technology to transmit privacy information, the signals received at nodes R and E are represented as follows:

[0188]

[0189] in, and Let S1 and S2 be the transmission powers at time t, respectively; and let x1(t) and x1(t) be the transmission signals of S1 and S2, respectively, which satisfy E{|x1(t)| 2}=1 and E{|x2(t)| 2}=1, n r (t) and n e (t) represents the received noise of R and E, respectively.

[0190] When the OMA strategy is used, the received signal is represented as follows:

[0191]

[0192] Where i = 1 or i = 2. In the t-th time slot, if R uses NOMA technology to forward privacy information, then at the receiving node D... i The received signals at (i=1,2) and the eavesdropping node E are respectively represented as follows:

[0193]

[0194] in, and These are the transmission powers of R forwarding S1 and S2 information to destination nodes D1 and D2, respectively; x r1 (t) and x r2 (t) are the privacy signals of S1 and S2, which satisfy E{|x r1 (t)| 2}=1 and E{|x r2 (t)| 2}=1,n i (t) and n e (t) are respectively in D i The received noise of E. In the following text, we will explain the proposed scheme, namely, secure transmission using buffer-assisted relay.

[0195] When a relay node uses the OMA strategy, the received signal is represented as follows:

[0196]

[0197] Where i = 1 or i = 2.

[0198] Simulation verification

[0199] Please see Figure 2 A graph showing the relationship between security level and transmission signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) was plotted. The graph shows that compared to the unbuffered scheme, adding buffers to relay nodes significantly improves the system's security level. This is because the buffer can store information and wait for better channel conditions before transmitting. Compared to using only NOMA or OMA for information transmission, adding mode selection provides better security performance. This is because the system will choose the better mode (NOMA / OMA) instead of using the same mode. For example, when OMA's performance is inferior to NOMA, the system will adaptively choose NOMA, and vice versa. Link selection refers to the system stopping a hop and switching to another hop when the performance of a certain hop is poor. It can be seen that the security performance of a system with link selection is better than that of a system with only mode selection.

[0200] Please see Figure 3 This shows the relationship between security level and distance to the relay / eavesdropping node. As the eavesdropping node becomes farther away, the secure transmission rate increases to some extent under all four transmission strategies, but systems with link selection still outperform those without, and systems with a hybrid NOMA / OMA transmission method outperform those using only one method. Please refer to... Figure 4 This shows the relationship between the system's security level and the maximum buffer capacity. When the buffer capacity reaches its maximum, the first hop cannot send messages; only the second hop can be used. With Q... maxAs the size decreases, the amount of information that can be stored decreases, the flexibility of link selection is limited, and the system's confidentiality gradually declines.

[0201] In summary, this invention provides a method and system for selecting NOMA / OMA transmission strategies in a buffer-assisted relay network. It combines the uplink and downlink to form a complete sender-to-receiver information transmission network. This network incorporates buffer-assisted relays and, based on maximizing security, utilizes Lyapunov optimization theory to jointly optimize power allocation and transmission strategies. The transmission strategy includes flexible selection of transmission links (uplink / downlink) and transmission modes (NOMA / OMA). Furthermore, NOMA or OMA transmission systems without buffer assistance are investigated and used as benchmark schemes. Simulation results show that adaptive transmission strategy selection effectively improves system security performance. In transmission systems with buffer-assisted relays, the system security improves with increasing buffer capacity and capacity limit, but there is an upper limit for matching the channel.
