Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of communication technology, and specifically relates to a security assessment method for a hybrid visible light (VL) and radio frequency (RF) system, which can be used in the design of indoor visible light communication systems. Background Technology

[0002] Visible light communication (VLC) technology has become a research hotspot in the field of communications due to its advantages such as wide spectrum resources, high transmission speed, and absence of electromagnetic interference. However, VLC technology still faces some challenges in practical applications, such as limited coverage area, high dependence on line-of-sight transmission, and susceptibility to communication link disruptions. These factors limit its application scope in communication systems. Meanwhile, radio frequency (RF) technology, although limited by spectrum resources, boasts a wider coverage area and stronger penetration, which to some extent compensates for the shortcomings of VLC technology. Therefore, combining the high-speed transmission characteristics of VLC with the wide coverage advantage of RF to construct a hybrid visible light / radio frequency (VL / RF) network has become a new trend in communications research, aiming to fully utilize the complementary advantages of the two technologies to improve overall network performance.

[0003] With wireless communication technology permeating all levels of society, public awareness of personal privacy and data security is increasing. VLC and RF, as two key technologies in wireless communication, offer convenience for legitimate users due to their open signal propagation characteristics, but also create vulnerabilities that can be exploited by potential cyber attackers, potentially leading to the leakage of sensitive information and increased cybersecurity threats. To effectively address this challenge, Physical Layer Security (PLS) technology has emerged. Based on fundamental principles of information theory, this technology utilizes the time-varying, random, and reciprocal physical properties of wireless channels to amplify the channel condition differences between legitimate communication links and illicit eavesdropping links, providing a new protection mechanism for network security.

[0004] In their paper "PLS analysis in an indoor heterogeneous VLC / RF network based on known and unknown CSI," Kumar et al. investigated the physical layer security issues in indoor environments where VLC and RF technologies coexist. They prevented eavesdropping attacks by imposing a positive security rate constraint and evaluated system security performance based on average security capacity, connection interruption probability, and security interruption probability. However, this model, because both RF and VLC transmission elements are located at the transmitter and no relay transmission is used, limits signal coverage and enhancement capabilities. Furthermore, the lack of SLIPT (Simultaneous Information and Energy Transmission) technology results in low system energy efficiency and weak anti-interference capabilities. Additionally, the system only considers the case of a single eavesdropper, failing to adequately account for the complexity and potential security threats posed by multiple eavesdroppers in high-density user environments, thus limiting its widespread applicability.

[0005] Vats et al., in their paper "Physical layer security for dual-hop VLC / RF communication systems," investigated the security performance of a dual-hop hybrid VL / RF system. In this system, data signals are first transmitted via a single-source antenna through a decoded-and-forward method to a relay R via a radio frequency channel. The relay R decodes the received radio frequency signal, converting it into an optical signal, which is then transmitted via a VLC channel to the authorized receiving antenna at the destination. However, in this system, legitimate users only receive the relayed VL signal, while eavesdroppers directly intercept the RF signal from the base station. Furthermore, its design, which uses the radio frequency base station as the signal source, is not suitable for security assessments of indoor VLC systems using LEDs as the signal source, thus limiting its applicability and effectiveness in modern indoor optical communication environments.

[0006] In their research, "Performance Analysis of a Hybrid Visible Light / Radio Frequency Cooperative Communication System Based on SLIPT," Zhang Zhixuan et al. proposed a hybrid VL / RF cooperative communication system based on SLIPT. This system divides the end-to-end link into a VLC link and an RF communication link by relaying data, assuming a randomly moving off-network relay exists within the light source's coverage area. However, this system fails to adequately consider the presence of unauthorized eavesdroppers, thus hindering accurate analysis of the system's physical layer security performance. Furthermore, the model's application is limited to situations where legitimate users are outside the VLC illumination coverage area, thus restricting its applicability in a wider range of environments and its ability to comprehensively assess security. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of the prior art by providing a method for safety evaluation of a hybrid visible light (VL) and radio frequency (RF) system, thereby improving system safety performance, energy efficiency, and anti-interference capabilities.

[0008] The technical approach to achieving the objective of this invention is as follows: by integrating VL and RF communication systems, the system's coverage area is expanded and signal transmission capabilities are enhanced, effectively reducing inter-cell interference and thus improving the system's anti-interference capability. By employing SLIPT (Simultaneous Information and Energy Transmission) technology at the relay point, the DC component is separated from the received optical signal, energy is harvested, and then transmitted as an RF signal, achieving synchronous transmission of energy and information, improving the system's energy efficiency, and consequently enhancing the system's physical layer security performance.

[0009] Based on the above ideas, the implementation scheme of the present invention includes the following steps:

[0010] 1. A security assessment method for a visible light and radio frequency hybrid system based on SLIPT, the system comprising a transmitter S consisting of multiple light-emitting diodes (LEDs), a relay R, a legitimate user D equipped with both a photodetector PD and an antenna, and multiple non-colluding eavesdroppers E positioned outside the illumination coverage of the transmitter S. k Its characteristic is that it includes the following steps:

[0011] 1) Transmitter S sends visible light VL signals to legitimate user D and relay R. Calculate the channel gain h between transmitter S and legitimate user D in the visible light communication VLC link. SD The channel gain h between the relay R and the relay R SR And according to h SD Calculate the signal-to-noise ratio γ of legitimate user D on the VLC link. SD ;

[0012] 2) Relay R uses the SLIPT (Simultaneous Information and Energy Transmission) method to separate the DC component from the received visible light (VL) signal, harvests the energy, and transmits it as a radio frequency (RF) signal to legitimate user D and multiple non-colluding eavesdroppers E. k Eavesdropping on information in the radio frequency (RF) link;

[0013] 3) Calculate the received optical signal y of legitimate user D on the RF link. RD and multiple non-conspirator E k The received optical signal y RE,k And calculate the signal-to-noise ratio γ of legitimate user D on the RF link. RD and multiple non-conspirator E k signal-to-noise ratio γ RE,k ;

E ;

[0016] 6) Based on the total signal-to-noise ratio γ of legitimate user D D Total signal-to-noise ratio γ of the eavesdropper E The safe interruption probability SOP of the calculation system is: SOP = Pr{1+γ} D ≤T(1+γ E )}, where Pr{·} represents the probability of a certain event, C th Indicates the system target rate;

[0017] 7) Based on the safety interruption probability SOP and target rate C th The effective secure throughput of the computing system is EST: EST = C th ×(1-SOP);

[0018] 8) Determine the security performance of the visible light and radio frequency hybrid system based on the two parameters: Security Outage Probability (SOP) and Effective Confidential Throughput (EST).

[0019] If the SOP value is less than 1 and the EST value is greater than 0, then the system is safe.

[0020] If any one of the conditions is not met, the system is not secure.

[0021] 9) Simulate the security interruption probability (SOP) and effective confidentiality throughput (EST) of the system under different parameter settings, and select the system parameters with the minimum SOP value and the maximum EST value as the parameter settings for the best security performance of the visible light and radio frequency hybrid system.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0023] First, by integrating visible light (VLC) and radio frequency (RF) communication systems, this invention fully utilizes the respective advantages of VLC and RF communication to achieve a high degree of resource complementarity and optimized configuration. This not only expands the system's coverage but also significantly enhances signal transmission capabilities, effectively reduces inter-cell interference, and thus enhances the system's anti-interference capabilities.

[0024] Secondly, since the present invention uses the wireless information-energy simultaneous transmission (SLIPT) method to process the visible light VL signal received by the relay R, it can provide the required energy to the receiving end while transmitting information. This synchronous transmission mechanism can effectively improve energy utilization efficiency and reduce energy loss.

[0025] Third, by simulating a scenario where multiple eavesdroppers are eavesdropping simultaneously, this invention not only enhances the real-world adaptability of the system design but also significantly improves the system's ability to respond to complex security threats, making the system design more in line with the needs of practical applications and diverse scenarios, thereby enhancing the system's practicality and adaptability.

[0026] Fourth, by simulating the system security interruption probability SOP and effective confidentiality throughput EST under different system parameter settings when there are multiple non-colluding eavesdroppers, this invention can obtain the parameter settings with the best security performance by comparing and selecting them.
