We focus on the practical scenario where the transmitter does not have any channel state information (CSI) of the eavesdropper's channel. The transmitter selects a single antenna that maximizes the instantaneous signalto-noise ratio (SNR) at the receiver. The receiver and the eavesdropper employ either maximal-ratio combining (MRC) or selection combining (SC) to combine the received signals. For the proposed protocols, we derive new closed-form expressions for the probability of non-zero secrecy capacity. We consider Nakagami-m fading with non-identical fading parameters of the main channel, mB, and of the eavesdropper's channel, mE. Next, we derive new closed-form expressions for the exact secrecy outage probability, based on which the ε-outage secrecy capacity is characterized. Based on the exact expressions, we derive the asymptotic secrecy outage probability which accurately reveals the secrecy diversity order and the secrecy array gain. We confirm that the proposed protocols achieve identical secrecy diversity orders of NANBmB. An interesting conclusion is reached that this diversity order is independent of NE and mE. Furthermore, we prove that under the proposed protocols, the secrecy outage probability and the ε-outage secrecy capacity improve with increasing NA.

Our main motivation is to determine the impact of GSC and outdated channel information on the outage probabiliy of cognitive spectrum sharing subject to two practical power constraints: 1) maximum transmit power at the SU transmitter, and 2) peak interference temperature at the PU receiver. We derive new closed-form expressions for the exact and asymptotic outage probability in Rayleigh fading. Our expressions provide concise representations of the diversity order and the array gain. We confirm that the diversity order of GSC is entirely dependent on the secondary network and is equal to the available number of receive antennas at the SU. This result is consistent with those of maximal-ratio combining (MRC) and selection combining (SC) in cognitive spectrum sharing. More importantly, our results show that the outage probability decreases with increasing the correlation coefficient of the outdated channel.

In this network, a single antenna which maximizes the receive signal-tonoise ratio (SNR) is selected at the secondary transmitter and a subset of receive antennas with the highest SNRs are combined at the secondary receiver. To demonstrate the advantages of our proposed framework, we derive new exact closed-form expressions for the outage probability and the symbol error rate of the secondary network in Rayleigh fading. We also derive easyto-evaluate asymptotic expressions in the high SNR regime to gain practical insights. Several important design insights are reached. Under the proportional interference power constraint, the full diversity gain is achieved and is entirely determined by the total number of antennas available in the secondary network. This result is independent of the number of receive antennas combined and the number of primary users. The positive impact of the number of receive antennas combined and the negative impact of the number of primary users on the secondary network are showcased in the SNR gain. Under the fixed interference power constraint, error floors are displayed and the diversity gain is lost.
