cdma2000 1xEV-DO 시스템은 기지국이 전송하는 이진(binary) 정보와 간단한 확률모델에 의해 역방향 링크의 전송속도를 제어한다. 하지만, 이 트래픽 제어방식은 각 단말이 자율적으로 전송속도를 결정하기 때문에 역방향 링크를 효과적으로 제어하기 어렵고 역방향 링크의 안성성을 보장하기도 쉽지 않다. 본 논문에서는 역방향 링크의 안정성을 향상시키기 위하여 트래픽 부하에 따른 단계별 전송속도 제어방법을 제안하고, 이를 이산시간 마르코프 프로세스로 모델링하여 성능을 분석한다. 다양한 환경에서 실시한 분석 결과를 통해 제안한 방법이 기존의 방법과 비교하여 보다 높은 전송속도를 지원함을 확인할 수 있다. 더불어, 제안한 방식은 표준규격에서 정의한 물리계층 구조를 변경하지 않으므로 이미 구축되어 있는 1xEV-DO 시스템과 호환이 가능한 장점을 가진다.

Utilizing artificial noise (AN) is a good means to guarantee security against eavesdropping in a multi-inputmulti-output system, where the AN is designed to lie in the null space of the legitimate receiver's channel direction information (CDI). However, imperfect CDI will lead to noise leakage at the legitimate receiver and cause significant loss in the achievable secrecy rate. In this paper, we consider a delayed feedback system, and investigate the impact of delayed CDI on security by using a transmit beamforming and AN scheme. By exploiting the Gauss-Markov fading spectrum to model the feedback delay, we derive a closed-form expression of the upper bound on the secrecy rate loss, where $N_t$ = 2. For a moderate number of antennas where $N_t$ > 2, two special cases, based on the first-order statistics of the noise leakage and large number theory, are explored to approximate the respective upper bounds. In addition, to maintain a constant signal-to-interferenceplus-noise ratio degradation, we analyze the corresponding delay constraint. Furthermore, based on the obtained closed-form expression of the lower bound on the achievable secrecy rate, we investigate an optimal power allocation strategy between the information signal and the AN. The analytical and numerical results obtained based on first-order statistics can be regarded as a good approximation of the capacity that can be achieved at the legitimate receiver with a certain number of antennas, $N_t$. In addition, for a given delay, we show that optimal power allocation is not sensitive to the number of antennas in a high signal-to-noise ratio regime. The simulation results further indicate that the achievable secrecy rate with optimal power allocation can be improved significantly as compared to that with fixed power allocation. In addition, as the delay increases, the ratio of power allocated to the AN should be decreased to reduce the secrecy rate degradation.
