In the Internet of Things (IoT), massive sensitive and confidential information is transmitted wirelessly, making security a serious concern. This is particularly true when technologies, such as nonorthogonal multiple access (NOMA), are used, making it possible for users to access each other's data. This article studies secure communications in multiuser NOMA downlink systems, where each user is potentially an eavesdropper. Resource allocation is formulated to achieve the maximum sum secrecy rate, meanwhile satisfying the users' data requirements and power constraint. We solve this nontrivial, mixed-integer nonlinear programming problem by decomposing it into power allocation with a closed-form solution, and user pairing obtained effectively using linear programming relaxation and barrier algorithm. These subproblems are solved iteratively until convergence, with the convergence rate rigorously analyzed. Simulations demonstrate that our approach outperforms its existing alternatives significantly in the sum secrecy rate and computational complexity.
