In this paper, the impact of both maximal ratio combining (MRC) and relay selection on the physical layer security in wireless communication systems is investigated by analyzing critical issues such as the probability characteristics of the legitimate receiver (Bob) and malicious eavesdropper (Eve)'s end-to-end signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), the secrecy outage probability and the average secrecy channel capacity over Rayleigh fading Channel, etc. Unlike the conventional physical layer security schemes, we assume that Bob receives its data from both the relay and the source via cooperative relay, provided that MRC is employed at the receiver. Particularly, compared to the conventional MRC methods, the proposed method is capable of achieving a higher spatial diversity order by performing relay selection, as validated by performing the theoretical analysis as well as numerical simulation. Furthermore, the closed-form expressions in terms of secrecy outage probability and average secrecy capacity are all consistent with the numerical results. Finally, the proposed scheme may be substantially affected by a number of parameters such as the number of relays, the SNR of links and the ratio of main-to-eavesdropper ratio (MER) λ ME .

Background The aim of this study was to investigate the concordance in lesion detection, between conventional Handhold Ultrasound (HHUS) and The Anatomical Intelligence for Breast ultrasound scan method. Result The AI-breast showed the absolute agreement between the resident and an experienced breast radiologist. The ICC for the scan time, number, clockface location, distance to the nipple, largest diameter and mean diameter of the lesion obtained by a resident and an experienced breast radiologist were 0.7642, 0.7692, 0.8651, 0.8436, 0.7502, 0.8885, respectively. The ICC of the both practitioners of AI-breast were 0.7971, 0.7843, 0.9283, 0.8748, 0.7248, 0.8163, respectively. The k value of Anatomical Intelligence breast between experienced breast radiologist and resident in these image characteristics of boundary, morphology, aspect ratio, internal echo, and BI-RADS assessment were 0.7424, 0.7217, 0.6741, 0.6419, 0.6241, respectively. The k value of the two readers of AI-breast were 0.6531, 0.6762, 0.6439, 0.6137, 0.5981, respectively. Conclusion The anatomical intelligent breast US scanning method has excellent reproducibility in recording the lesion location and the distance from the nipple, which may be utilized in the lesions surveillance in the future.
