| contents | This paper investigates the secrecy sum rate (SSR) of rate-splitting multiple access (RSMA)-based visible light communication (VLC) systems considering internal eavesdropping, where legitimate users may intercept private data intended for others. We formulate an optimization problem to maximize the SSR of the system, which is inherently non-convex due to the complex coupling of the objective function and constraints. To this end, two different approaches based on the convex-concave procedure (CCCP) and semidefinite relaxation (SDR) are leveraged to solve the non-convex parameterized problem. A central focus of this work is the investigation of channel similarity (CS), which serves as a metric for quantifying spatial correlation, and its impact on SSR performance. To mitigate the performance degradation caused by high spatial correlation, we propose a channel similarity reduction (CSR) clustering strategy that proactively minimizes CS to restore the system's degrees of freedom (DoF). Numerical results are provided to demonstrate the performance of the two proposed algorithms under various levels of CS. More importantly, the findings reveal that our proposed CSR-clustering strategy significantly outperforms existing baselines, effectively overcoming the secrecy performance ceiling caused by high spatial correlation. |
