Abstract:

In this paper, a transmission scheme based on polarization filtering and weighted fractional Fourier transform (PF-WFRFT) is proposed to enhance the transmission security in wireless communications. Indeed, the distribution of the transmit signals processed by WFRFT can be close to Gaussian, which can significantly improve the low detection probability. However, through scanning the WFRFT order with small step size, an eavesdropper can restore a regular constellation and crack the information. To overcome the problem, in the PF-WFRFT scheme, two polarized signals with mutually orthogonal polarization state are utilized to convey the information, which are processed by WFRFT separately and added up linearly before being transmitted by dual-polarized antennas. In this manner, even by scanning the WFRFT order, recovered signals are composite ones, which make the WFRFT order and the signals’ PSs difficult to crack, thus improving the security. In addition, the polarization-dependent loss (PDL) effect on the proposed scheme is discussed and a proprocessing matrix based on the channel information is constructed to eliminate this effect. Finally, numerical results are given to demonstrate the security performance of the proposed scheme in wireless communications.
