This paper studies a multi-antenna wiretap channel with a passive eavesdropper and an external helper, where only quantized channel information regarding the legitimate receiver is available at the transmitter and helper due to finite-rate feedback. Given a fixed total bandwidth for the two feedback channels, the receiver must determine how to allocate its feedback bits to the transmitter and helper. Assuming zero-forcing transmission at the helper and random vector quantization of the channels, an analytic expression for the achievable ergodic secrecy rate due to the resulting quantization errors is derived. While direct optimization of the secrecy rate is difficult, an approximate upper bound for the mean loss in secrecy rate is derived and a feedback bit allocation method that minimizes the average upper bound on the secrecy rate loss is studied. A closed-form solution is shown to be possible if the integer constraint on the bit allocation is relaxed. Numerical simulations indicate the significant advantage that can be achieved by adaptively allocating the available feedback bits.
