Through derivation of the gradient of the secrecy rate, we formulate an iterative algorithm to maximize the achievable secrecy rates. We also introduce two lower complexity signal design algorithms for different scenarios based on the number of antennas at the eavesdropper. Our results illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed precoding techniques in attaining positive secrecy rates over a wide range of signal to noise ratios. © 2016 IEEE.EnglishChannel state informationPhysical layer securityPrecodingSpace shift keyingArticle10.1109/LWC.2016.2515601
