We study the secrecy sum-rate (SSR) of a multi-user system in the presence of artificial noise (AN) and determine conditions under which it is necessary to add AN assuming eavesdropper (Eve) cannot remove the interference. We first derive a closed-form expression for the asymptotic SSR of the system and determine the optimum power allocation. The closed form expressions for the SSR and optimum power allocation closely match our simulation results. We also show that as the number of receive antennas at Eve increases, we need to allocate more power to AN in order to degrade reception at Eve.
