- Establishing security for wireless networks is a critical issue for cybersecurity. A novel definition is established for the security of wireless transmissions called the ‘Spatial Secrecy Outage Probability’ (SSOP). It is shown how this can be used to enhance security performance by using the parameters of a transceiver array. The work was undertaken as part of an international, collaborative project with Rice University, University College Dublin and the University of Liverpool. It has led to a direct follow-on project funded by Plextek Ltd. in applying the work to cross layer processing for wireless Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks.
