Abstract

This paper investigates the secrecy performance of a cooperative non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) network under practical impairments. In the considered system, the source employs orthogonal space-time block coding (OSTBC) transmission, legitimate users adopt receive antenna selection (RAS), and the eavesdropper utilizes maximal-ratio combining (MRC) scheme. Moreover, an energy-constrained amplify-and-forward relay harvests energy from the received signal and allocates the harvested energy to information forwarding and artificial noise (AN) generation. To capture the realistic performance of a more practical transmission scenario, channel estimation errors (CEE), feedback delay (FBD), imperfect successive interference cancellation (SIC), and imperfect AN cancellation are taken into account. For this system, closed-form expressions for the legitimate-user signal-to-interference+noise ratios (SINR) cumulative distribution function (CDF) and the eavesdropper SINR probability density function (PDF) are derived, and a tractable analytical secrecy outage probability (SOP) expressions are obtained. In addition, the high-SNR secrecy behavior is characterized under ideal channel state information (CSI) conditions and practical impairments, revealing the achievable secrecy diversity order and the secrecy outage floor, respectively. Moreover, secrecy throughput and energy efficiency are analyzed based on the obtained SOP results. The numerical findings are in close agreement with the analytical results and further illustrate how the secrecy behavior of the proposed system is affected by key design parameters and practical impairments. The obtained results indicate that transmit and receive diversity and proper AN power allocation significantly improve the secrecy performance, whereas practical impairments lead to non-zero SOP floors in the high signal-to-noise ratio region.

Outage Probability Analysis of Tunable Liquid Lens-assisted VLC Systems

This paper presents a tunable liquid lens (TLL)-assisted indoor mobile visible light communication system. To mitigate performance degradation caused by user mobility and random receiver orientation, an electrowetting cuboid TLL is used at the receiver. By dynamically controlling the orientation angle of the liquid surface through voltage adjustments, signal reception and overall system performance are enhanced. An accurate mathematical framework is developed to model channel gains, and two lens optimization strategies, namely ($i$) the best signal reception (BSR), and ($ii$) the vertically upward lens orientation (VULO) are introduced for improved performance. Closed form expressions for the outage probability are derived for each scheme for practical mobility and receiver orientation conditions. Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed TLL and lens adjustment strategies significantly reduce the outage probability compared to fixed lens and no lens receivers across various mobility and orientation conditions. Specifically, the outage probability is improved from $1\times 10^{-1}$ to $3\times 10^{-3}$ at a transmit power of $12$ dBW under a $8^{\circ}$ polar angle variation in random receiver orientation using the BSR scheme.

Distributed Power Control for Equal-Priority NGSO Mega-Constellation Coexistence

Two non-geostationary orbit (NGSO) mega-constellations over shared spectrum leads to inter-constellation interference. Existing mitigation mainly relies on frequency/time partitioning, spatial isolation and satellite selection. However, these approaches may sacrifice resource reuse or be constrained by spatial geometry. To enable interference mitigation without centralized coordination, this letter investigates distributed power control for independent, equal-priority NGSO operators. We formulate the interaction as a non-cooperative game and propose a distributed water-filling best response using local serving-channel estimates and aggregate interference measurements. Pure-strategy Nash equilibrium existence and a weighted spectral-norm sufficient condition for uniqueness and convergence are established. Simulation results demonstrate utility gains of 3.91\% over uncoordinated transmission with 20 active beams.

Broadband LEO Satellite Constellations for Next-Generation Navigation: Potentials, Enabling Technologies, and Challenges

The rapid deployment of broadband low Earth orbit (LEO) constellations provides new opportunities for next-generation navigation. Compared with conventional global navigation satellite systems (GNSS), broadband LEO systems provide stronger received signals, wider bandwidths, rapidly varying satellite geometry, and larger constellation scales, offering new capabilities for positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT). Meanwhile, their communication-oriented waveforms, high dynamics, and resource-constrained architectures introduce new challenges that are fundamentally different from those in GNSS. This article provides a comprehensive overview of broadband LEO constellations for next-generation navigation, covering their fundamental characteristics, representative use cases, key enabling technologies, and open challenges. We first compare broadband LEO systems with conventional GNSS and summarize the main technical routes for LEO-based PNT. We then discussed the emerging use cases in GNSS-challenged, multipath-dominant, and integrated communication and navigation (ICAN) scenarios. Key enabling technologies including waveform design, high-dynamic signal processing, and constellation resource scheduling are further reviewed. As a representative case study, the navigation-oriented optimization of the Starlink primary synchronization sequence demonstrates that subcarrier power allocation can improve multipath resistance while maintaining ranging accuracy. Finally, several challenges and future directions of broadband LEO-based navigation are discussed, aiming to provide reference for future researches.
