Optimal signalling over the wire-tap MIMO Gaussian channel is studied under the total transmit power constraint. The recent results are extended in several directions, including a rank-deficient solution for the optimal covariance, lower and upper capacity bounds for the general case, and characterization of optimality of the isotropic signaling. An isotropic eavesdropper model is studied, which provides (tight) upper and lower capacity bounds for the non-isotropic case and also serves as the worst-case scenario. The optimal signaling for this model is obtained in an explicit form and its properties are studied, including the high and low-SNR behavior, the conditions for the eavesdropper to be negligible and the capacity saturation effect. © 2013 IEEE.
