“…PHY-security, due to its appealing advantages, has been widely investigated in the literature ( [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15] and the references therein). However, all these works are limited to the scenario, where nodes in the network are stationary and the channel between them is modelled as either classical Rayleigh fading [7][8][9][10][11][12] or Nakagami-m fading [13][14][15], whereas, vehicular networks involve vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) links (i.e. when both transmitter and receiver are in motion), and the channel between two mobile nodes can be modelled as cascaded Rayleigh or cascaded Nakagami-m fading, since it can appropriately capture the probabilistic channel effects [16,17].…”
