Hierarchical Competition as Equilibrium Program With Equilibrium Constraints Towards Security-Enhanced Wireless Networks

Information security is a critical yet challenging issue for wireless communications. In this paper, we consider the distributed resource competition in a network that consists of both security-oriented users (SeUs) and regular users (ReUs) which, respectively, intend for secrecy rate and transmission rate maximization. To enhance wireless security, the SeUs are given higher priorities such that they are allowed to take action first in the...
