Abstract

Internet of Things is a revolutionary approach for future wireless technology enhancement and hence, network security is vital in protecting client data and information of users. This paper investigates impact of hardware impairments on the probability of non-zero secrecy capacity of internet of things network. In the considered protocol, multiple eavesdroppers attempt to overhear the data that is transferred from a source to a destination. We derive exact expressions of the non-zero secrecy capacity probability in integral forms with different hardware Impairments for source, destination or eavesdroppers over Rayleigh fading channels. Finally, Monte Carlo simulations are performed to verify our derivations.
