Abstract: In the paper, we investigate the secure communication of multiple-input single-output (MISO) systems with multiple eavesdroppers. We jointly design the beamforming (BF) and the artificial noise (AN) in MISO systems with multiple eavesdroppers to enhance the secrecy rate. Furthermore, under the secrecy interrupt constraint, we obtain the calculation formulas of the secrecy interrupt probability and the optimal secrecy rate. The simulation results demonstrate that AN with a higher dimension can effectively obstruct eavesdroppers and enhance the system's optimal secrecy rate. In addition, it is proved that the 1/4 full-dimension AN's secrecy rate close to that of the full-dimension AN in the system with multiple eavesdroppers, allowing the trade-off between system secrecy performance and artificial noise design complexity to be realized.
