| Sumario: | This paper proposes a hybrid beamforming design algorithm for a multi-user physical layer security modulation technique. The hybrid beamforming scheme is used in the base station to generate multi-beams according to the direction angle of the target users. The base station first uses a secure analog beamforming scheme to generate analog beams in multiple desired directions, then uses minimum mean square error (MMSE) to design the digital beamforming matrix to eliminate inter-beam interference. Due to randomly selecting a subset of antennas to transmit signals at the symbol rate, the base station transmits the defined constellation to the target users and projects the randomized constellation in the other angles. In addition, the superposition of signals is affected by a randomly selected antennas subset, resulting in higher sidelobe energy. However, due to the integer optimization target, the optimization problem of antenna subsets is non-trivial. Therefore, this paper proposes a cross-entropy iteration method to choose the optimal antenna combination to reduce the sidelobe energy. The simulation shows that the proposed method in this paper has about 10 dB lower sidelobe energy than the random selection method. Besides, the eavesdropper’s symbol error rate of QPSK is always 0.75, while the multi-target users meet the quality of service requirements. |
