  • Abstract
    We consider the secrecy capacity of unicast channels of ad hoc networks exposed to randomly located eavesdroppers, as modeled by S-Graphs. Expressions that quantify the impact of fading and of the density of legitimate nodes relative to that of eavesdroppers are obtained, in terms of the probability that secrecy capacities of unicast channels are nonzero. The results indicate that depending on the relative density of eavesdroppers and the fading intensity, the secrecy capacity of unicast channels subject to fading may be higher than under additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN).
