Enhancing Security of Massive MIMO communication systems with Spatial Modulation

Abstract

The R&D and standardization of 6G networking technologies are happening worldwide. Data security is a critical challenge for 6G networks. Wireless networks carry control and command messages, patient medical data, energy prices, credit card data, and other sensitive data. That's why 6G wireless network protection is crucial. Guaranteeing data delivery to a valid receiver requires a procedure. This is addressed with a 64 x 64 massive MIMO system using CATMCPR and QAM modulation. The addition of application layer security to physical security improves massive MIMO communication system security. Data received by Bob with an Eve, passive Eve, and active Eve are compared for AWGN channel BER. BER performance is significantly improved than typical massive MIMO without application layer security.
