Abstract

In this paper, we design a secure transmission scheme for multiple-input single-output (MISO) broadcast channel with simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT), where a multi-antenna transmitter simultaneously transmit independent confidential messages to multiple potentially malicious receivers, in the presence of external eavesdroppers. Our objective is to minimize the total transmit power while guaranteeing the security communication and energy harvesting constraints by jointly optimizing the transmit beamforming vectors, covariance of artificial noise, and power splitting ratios, which is non-convex optimization and hard to tackle. We first solve this non-convex problem by using the technique of semi-definite relaxation (SDR), and then prove that the relaxation is tight and thus achieves the globally optimal solution of the original problem. Simulation results are finally presented to demonstrate the performance of our proposed scheme.

Secure Beamforming Design for SWIPT in MISO Broadcast Channel With Confidential Messages and External Eavesdroppers

Haiyang Zhang, Yongming Huang, Chunguo Li +1 more

This paper studies the secure beamforming design for simultaneous wireless information and power transfer in a multiple-input single-output broadcast channel with confidential messages and external eavesdroppers, where each receiver adopts the power splitting (PS) scheme to decode information and harvest energy concurrently, and it is also seen as a potential eavesdropper for messages not intended for it. Our objective is to minimize the total transmit power while guaranteeing the individual secrecy rate and energy harvesting constraints at each receiver by jointly optimizing transmit beamforming vectors, artificial noise covariance, and receive PS ratios. Both scenarios of perfect and imperfect channel state information (CSI) at the transmitter are considered. For the perfect CSI case, we propose a two-stage optimization approach to solve the original non-convex problem global optimality, and also provide a low-complexity suboptimal solution based on the particle swarm optimization algorithm. Furthermore, we also extend the above result to the colluding eavesdroppers scenario. For the imperfect CSI case, we propose a worst-case-based robust formulation, where the CSI errors are norm-bounded. With the aid of S-Procedure, we derive the equivalent forms for constraints and then transform the non-convex robust design into a convex optimization problem. Simulation results are finally presented to demonstrate the performance of our proposed schemes.

Robust secure beamforming for MISO SWIPT broadcast channels with confidential messages

Yuanlian Huo, Tingting Zhang, Chunguo Li

In this paper, we investigate multiple-input single-output (MISO) simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) broadcast channels with confidential messages (BCC) scenario, in which a multiple-antenna transmitter simultaneously transmits confidential messages and power to multiple single-antenna receivers. Considering the imperfect channel state information (CSI), we study the joint optimization of transmit beamforming vectors, covariance of artificial noise, and power splitting ratios so as to minimize the total transmit power while satisfying the worst-case conservative secrecy rate and energy harvesting constraints. The original optimization is non-convex and intractable in general. To handle this challenge, in this paper, we first derive the exact upper or lower bounds of the constraints in original optimization problem by using the Lagrangian approach, and then convert the corresponding non-convex problem into a convex one with the aid of the rank relaxation technique. Finally, we provide simulation results to illustrate the robustness of the proposed design.

Outage Constrained Robust Beamforming and Power Splitting for Secure MISO SWIPT Channel

Hehao Niu, Bangning Zhang, Daoxing Guo

In this letter, we investigate the simultaneous wireless information and power transfer in a multiple-input-single-output downlink system which consists of one multi-antenna transmitter, one single-antenna desired receiver, and multiple single-antenna eavesdroppers. Specifically, we investigate the outage-constrained secrecy rate maximization by jointly designing the transmit beamforming vector and the power splitting ratio with statistical channel uncertainties. To handle the formulated non-convex problem, we resort to semi-definite relaxation (SDR) and the Bernstein-type inequality to transform the outage constraints into a deterministic form. Then, the original problem can be efficiently solved by alternately optimizing two convex subproblems. In addition, we testify that the SDR can obtain the rank-one optimal solution. Finally, our proposed algorithm is validated by some representative numerical results.

Secure Beamforming Design for MISO SWIPT Systems: An Indirectly Optimized Approach

Yao Yu, Siyu Wang, Shumei Liu +4 more

By considering the Simultaneous Wireless Information and Power Transfer (SWIPT) schemes, this paper focuses on secure transmission model design in multiple-input-single-output (MISO) channels. In these channels, the channel state information is assumed to be perfect. Our objective is to maximize the worst-case secrecy rate with respect to both potential eavesdroppers and obvious eavesdroppers under the constraints of energy-harvesting and total transmission power. We present an optimization model to indirectly obtain maximum security rate in a single receiver system. Due to the high computational complexity of the solution process caused by the formulated non-convex optimization problem, we propose a novel indirect method to handle this issue. Then, a Semi-Definite Programming (SDP) relaxation method is used to approach the optimal solution. Moreover, we reveal the conditions for ensuring that the above semi-definite relaxation is compact. Simulation results demonstrate that the gained performance in our system is much better than those of the existing competing schemes.

Robust Secure SWIPT MISO

Teckchai Tiong

This paper studies the secure transmission issue for simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) in a multiuser system with multiple eavesdroppers, where the base station transmitter broadcasts confidential message to legitimate multiple single-antenna information receivers (IRs) and multiple single-antenna energy-harvesting receivers (ERs). Our objective is to optimize the information bearing beam and artificial energy-carrying noise beam in order to maximize the secrecy rate of the IRs subject to individual harvested energy constraints of the ERs for the case where the ERs can form eavesdropping party to carry out joint decoding in an attempt to illicitly decode the secret message intended for the IRs. The initial non-convex problem is converted to convex problem through semi-definite programming (SDP) relaxation for both perfect CSI and imperfect CSI. Numerical simulations are presented to demonstrate the performance.

Secrecy rate maximization for MISO system with energy harvesting and eavesdroppers

Sami Ahmed Haider, Yunlong Cai, Minjian Zhao

In this paper, we investigate the secrecy rate maximization problem for a multi user multiple-input single-output (MISO) broadcast interference communication system with simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT), in the presence of external eavesdroppers. Assuming that the channel state information is perfectly known at the transmitter, the main aim is to maximize the secrecy rate of the system under signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR), energy harvesting (EH) and total transmit power constraints. The original secrecy rate maximization problem is non-convex in terms of transmit beamforming matrix and power splitting ratios, usually solved via semi-definite relaxation. In order to circumvent this nonconvexity issue, we propose a concave-convex procedure (CCCP) based iterative algorithm, which provide a local maximum for the secrecy rate maximization. Simulation results are presented to validate the effectiveness of our proposed algorithm. It is demonstrated that our proposed CCCP based iterative algorithm achieves higher secrecy rate and has a lower computational complexity as compared to the conventional SDR technique.
