摘要

研究AF中继网络同时信息与能量传输的物理层安全技术，提出利用鲁棒协作波束成形和人工噪声提升系统的安全和能量传输性能。将能量接收机视作潜在窃听者，在中继功率及能量采集门限约束下，提出最大化源节点与合法接收机之间的最差安全速率优化问题。为求解该非凸问题，提出了双层优化方法，其中包括一维搜索与半正定松弛。证明了该半正定松弛为紧松弛。仿真结果表明本文算法比其他方案有更好的安全速率性能。

Abstract

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.
