Abstract: This article studies the physical layer security in a downlink full-duplex cognitive non-orthogonal multiple access sensor networks (FD-C-NOMA). Compared with the existing works, this article proposes a FD-C-NOMA transmission scheme with a primary user (PU) and secondary user (SU) sensor nodes in the presence of an eavesdropper. The zero-forcing beamforming design problems of FD operation are investigated subject to the practical secrecy rate and the quality of services of PU. To characterize the security reliability trade-off of the FD-C-NOMA scheme, we first derive the closed-form expressions of connection outage probability (COP), the secrecy outage probability (SOP), and effective secrecy throughput (EST) of each SU in the NOMA networks. Then the impacts of the system parameters on the COP, SOP, and EST are investigated to evaluate the security and reliability in the FD-C-NOMA networks. Furthermore, in order to further verify the security and reliability of our considered network, an OMA scheme of FD operation is provided in the simulation for the purpose of comparison. Results demonstrate that the NOMA-based cognitive sensor networks of FD operation outperforms the OMA system in terms of EST. Finally, simulations are performed to validate the accuracy of our analysis results of the proposed scheme.
