Secrecy for MISO broadcast channels with heterogeneous CSIT

We consider the two-user multiple-input single-output (MISO) broadcast channel with confidential messages (BCCM), in which the nature of channel state information at the transmitter (CSIT) from each user can be of the form P, D and N, corresponding to perfect and instantaneous, completely delayed, and no CSIT, respectively. We focus on the cases with heterogeneous CSIT from the users, that is, the states PD, PN and DN. The main contribution of this paper is to establish the exact secure degrees of freedom (s.d.o.f.) regions of the MISO BCCM in all of these three heterogeneous states. The results highlight the impact of availability of CSIT on the s.d.o.f. region.
