Collision-free jamming for enhanced wireless secrecy

We present a collision-free jammer selection policy for enhanced wireless secrecy. Jammers, selected from the neighbors of a source, are friendly in the sense that they are willing to help the source to transmit securely by causing interference/collisions to possible eavesdroppers. The proposed jammer selection policy results in the selection of the largest number of jammers that do not cause collisions among themselves. This enables jammers to assist the source to transmit securely by causing interference to eavesdroppers, while sending their own traffic into the network.
