Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
The wireless offloading feature of the recently advocated mobile-edge computing (MEC) imposes a risk of disclosing private user data to eavesdroppers. Physical-layer security approaches that are built on information theoretic methods can be applied to defend eavesdropping in MEC. Nonetheless, directly incorporating existing physical-layer security technique may introduce extra energy and delay costs to the resource-limited mobile device and thus substantially disrupt the users' offloading decisions. To fulfill effective secure offloading in MEC, there is a compelling need to properly optimize existing physical-layer security techniques and develop new offloading schemes accordingly. With this consideration, a novel physical-layer assisted secure offloading scheme is proposed in this work, in which the edge server proactively broadcasts jamming signals to impede eavesdropping and leverages full-duplex communication technique to effectively suppress the self-interference. Finding the optimal jamming signal and the corresponding optimal offloading ratio turns out to be a challenging bilevel optimization problem. The special structure of the secure offloading problem is exploited to develop efficient offloading algorithms. Numerical results are presented to validate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.
