Abstract:

In this paper, we proposed a secure communication scheme based on Reliability-Based Hybrid Automatic Repeat reQuest (RB-HARQ) protocol over the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) wiretap channel. RB-HARQ protocol aims at retransmitting the unreliable bits required for the authorized user's (Bob) successfully decoding and minimizing the information leakage that may benefit to eavesdropper (Eve). The secrecy level in this paper is assessed through the bit error rate (BER) at both the authorized user (Bob) and eavesdropper (Eve). Therefore, we analyze the BER of our proposed scheme through theoretical arguments and simulations. Numerical results suggest that RB-HARQ protocol can significantly enhance the security performance of our communication system.
