Secrecy Analysis of a Mu-MIMO LIS-Aided Communication Systems under Nakagami-m Fading Channels

This study evaluates the performance of large intelligent surface (LIS) technology in the context of a multi-user MIMO mobile communication system (Mu-MIMO) proposed for the sixth generation (6G). LIS employs digitally controlled reflectors to enhance Signal-to-Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR) and establish line of sight (LoS) connectivity in non-LoS environments, improving transmission security. Analytical expressions are derived to assess LIS performance metrics, including distribution parameters, bit error probability, and secrecy outage probability, considering the presence of eavesdroppers and environmental fading. The study highlights the potential of LIS technology to enhance the confidentiality and reliability of digital communication systems in next-generation networks.
