—The performance of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithms depends strongly upon the interaction among the particles. The existing communication topologies for PSO (e.g. st...
In this paper the fading multiple antenna (MIMO) wire-tap channel is investigated under short term power constraints. The secret diversity gain and the secret multiplexing gain ar...
