Robust Artificial Noise-Aided Secure Beamforming in Wireless-Powered Non-Regenerative Relay Networks

Bin Li, Zesong Fei, Hongbin Chen

In this paper, we consider a non-regenerative relay network supporting simultaneous wireless information and power transfer, in which the energy harvesting relay is powered by radio-frequency signals from the source node. Assuming imperfect channel state information from the source/relay to the destination/eavesdropper, we investigate the artificial noise-aided secure robust beamformer that minimize the transmission power at the relay, while guaranteeing the secrecy rate constraint and the transmit power constraint at the relay. In particular, two types of energy harvesting strategies are considered termed power splitting (PS) and time switching (TS), respectively. These constraints make the optimization problems formulated non-convex and challenging, which are efficiently solved by using the S-procedure and semidefinite relaxation techniques to formulate a tractable approximated version of the original problems. Numerical results show the effectiveness of the proposed robust beamforming schemes. Furthermore, the PS strategy performs better than the TS strategy.

Secure Beamforming for Simultaneous Wireless Information and Power Transfer in Wireless-Powered Full-Duplex Relay Networks

Taoshen Li, Peipei Chen, Zhe Wang +1 more

In this paper, we study secure beamforming for simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) in wireless-powered full-duplex (FD) relay networks. The relay assists transmission of confidential information, while simultaneously harvesting the energy with power switching scheme by the radio-frequency (RF) signals. We propose a joint amplify-and-forward beamforming (AB) and energy signal (AB-ES) with the receiver power splitting strategy (PS) scheme to maximize the secrecy rate under harvesting energy constraints. Since these constraints make the optimization problems become non-convex and hard to tackle. We propose a two-level optimization problem to solve this problem. The out part can be solved via the one-Dimensional search, and the inner part can be solved by semidefinite relaxation (SDR) technique. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme outperforms other schemes.

Joint cooperative beamforming and artificial noise design for secure AF relay networks with energy-harvesting eavesdroppers

Hehao Niu, Bangning Zhang, Daoxing Guo +2 more

In this paper, we investigate physical layer security for simultaneous wireless information and power transfer in amplify-and-forward relay networks. We propose a joint robust cooperative beamforming and artificial noise scheme for secure communication and efficient wireless energy transfer. Specifically, by treating the energy receiver as a potential eavesdropper and assuming that only imperfect channel state information can be obtained, we formulate an optimization problem to maximize the worst-case secrecy rate between the source and the legitimate information receiver under both the power constraint at the relays and the wireless power harvest constraint at the energy receiver. Since such a problem is non-convex and hard to tackle, we propose a two-level optimization approach which involves a one-dimensional search and semidefinite relaxation. Simulation results show that the proposed robust scheme achieves better worst-case secrecy rate performance than other schemes.
