Secure spectrum sharing and power allocation by multi agent reinforcement learning

In this paper, the problem of secure spectrum sharing and power allocation for the vehicle to vehicle communication has been investigated. The information transmitted in the network might be overheard by the eavesdropper. The aim of this paper is to share the vehicle to infra structure frequency bands with the vehicle to vehicle links in order to maximize the sum rate of the network as well as minimizing the data received by the eavesdropper. To achieve this goal, we have suggested to leverage some friendly jammers to prevent the leakage of information to the eavesdropper. A multi -agent reinforcement learning based approach has been developed to smartly determine the power level, frequency band, and jammer number in a way that the secure rate is maximized. All the agents would cooperate in making the decision in every state which might change over time. The simulation results confirm the superiority of the suggested scheme over its counterparts in various scenarios. The security provided by the proposed method is much higher than those of the other schemes.
