Performance Analysis of MEC Based on NOMA under Imperfect CSI with Eavesdropper
2021
Mobile edge computing (MEC) is becoming more and more popular because of improving computing power in virtual reality, augmented reality, unmanned driving, and other fields. This paper investigates a nonorthogonal multiple access- (NOMA-) based MEC system, which is under imperfect channel state information (ipCSI). In this system model, a pair of users offloads their tasks to the MEC server with the existence of an eavesdropper (Eve). To evaluate the impact of Eve on the performance of the NOMA-MEC system, the secrecy outage probability (SOP) expressions for two users with the conditions of imperfect CSI and perfect channel state information (pCSI) are derived. In addition, both throughput and energy efficiency are discussed in the delay-limited transmission mode. Simulation results reveal that (1) due to the influence of channel estimation errors, the secrecy outage behaviors of two users under ipCSI conditions are worse than those of users with pCSI; (2) the secrecy performance of NOMA-MEC is superior to orthogonal multiple access- (OMA-) aided MEC systems; and (3) the NOMA-MEC systems have the ability to attain better system throughput and energy efficiency compared with OMA-MEC.
