Description

We investigate secure communications in uplink transmissions, where there are a base station (BS) with M receive antennas, K mobile users each with a single antenna, and an eavesdropper with N receive antennas. The closed-form expressions of the achievable ergodic secrecy sumrates (ESSR) for a random k users selection scheme in the high and low SNR regimes are presented. It is shown that the scaling behavior of ESSR with respect to the number of served users k can be quite different under different system configurations, determined by the numbers of the BS antennas and that of the eavesdropper antennas.
