In this paper, we study a robust beamforming design for multi-user multiple-input multiple-output secrecy networks with simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT). In this system, an access point, multiple Internet of Things devices under the non-Linear energy harvesting model with a help of one cooperative jammer (CJ). We employ artificial noise (AN) generation to facilitate efficient wireless energy transfer and secure transmission. To achieve energy harvesting fairness, we aim to maximize the minimum harvested energy among users subject to secrecy rate constraint and total transmit power constraint in the presence of channel estimation errors. By incorporating a norm-bounded channel uncertainty model, we propose an algorithm based on sequential parametric convex approximation (SPCA). Finally, simulation results show that the proposed SPCA method outperforms the traditional AN-aided method and CJ-aided method.
