Machine Learning-Based Antenna Selection and Secrecy Capacity Analysis

The performance of machine learning methods was analyzed to optimize antenna selection in wireless communication systems, and system’s secrecy performance was observed. To enhance the antenna selection process, Deep Neural Networks (DNNs), Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), and the KNearest Neighbors (KNN) algorithm were utilized. Channel vectors were used as model inputs, aiming to select the most optimal transmission path among N possible candidates. During the training phase, the antenna with the highest Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) was selected for data labeling. The performance of Single-Input Multiple-Output (SIMO), Multiple-Input SingleOutput (MISO), and Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) system architectures was evaluated using model accuracy and the F1-score. Additionally, the secrecy capacity corresponding to the selected antennas was computed, demonstrating the feasibility of secure communication. The results indicate that deep learningbased methods achieved higher accuracy, with the CNN model emerging as the most successful approach, reaching an accuracy of over 95% across all system configurations..
