| contents | In physical layer security, the channel state information (CSI) of passive eavesdroppers is usually difficult to obtain, which has motivated sensing-aided secure communication (SASC). However, in secure multicast scenarios, conventional fixed-position antennas (FPAs) provide limited spatial flexibility for simultaneously serving multiple legitimate users and suppressing leakage toward possible eavesdropper directions. Motivated by this, a novel two-level rotatable antenna (RA)-enabled sensing-aided secure multicast scheme is proposed in this paper. In the proposed architecture, array-level and element-wise rotations are jointly exploited with analog beamforming for user enhancement and leakage suppression. To characterize imperfect eavesdropper sensing, the maximum likelihood estimator and the corresponding Cramér-Rao bound (CRB) are derived to quantify the angular estimation accuracy. Based on the derived CRB, a probabilistic angular uncertainty region is constructed. A CRB-aware max-min secrecy-rate problem is then formulated by evaluating the eavesdropper leakage over sampled high-probability directions within this region. The non-convex problem is handled through a tractable lower-bound reformulation based on Jensen's inequality and smooth approximation, followed by an alternating optimization algorithm combining manifold optimization and projected-gradient updates. Simulation results show the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed scheme compared with various benchmarks. Beam patterns further reveal that array-level and element-wise rotations play complementary roles in maintaining strong gains toward legitimate users and forming a low-gain region over the eavesdropper angular uncertainty interval. |
