| Resumen |
In this paper, we analyze the performance of physical layer security (PLS) in Weibull fading wiretap channels (WTC), leveraging realistic channel propagation models in which the channel coefficients of the main (transmitter-to-legitimate receiver) and eavesdropper (transmitter-to-eavesdropper) channels are correlated. Additionally, by incorporating non-causally known side information (SI) at the transmitter, we enhance PLS in this context. We utilize the Farlie–Gumbel–Morgenstern (FGM) copula to model the correlation between the main and eavesdropper channels, enabling us to derive analytical expressions for the average secrecy capacity (ASC), secrecy outage probability (SOP), the lower bound of SOP (LSOP), and the strictly positive secrecy capacity (SPSC) across various dependence scenarios (i.e., negative, positive, and independent). The numerically evaluated results, validated through corresponding computer simulations, provide valuable insights into the impact of channel correlation and SI at the transmitter on the system's PLS performance. © 2025 |
