Enhancing PHY Security of MISO NOMA SWIPT Systems With a Practical Non-Linear EH Model
Non-orthogonal multiple-access (NOMA) and simultaneous wireless information
and power transfer (SWIPT) are promising techniques to improve spectral
efficiency and energy efficiency. However, the security of NOMA SWIPT systems
has not received much attention in the literature. In this paper, an artificial
noise-aided beamforming design problem is studied to enhance the security of a
multiple-input single-output NOMA SWIPT system where a practical non-linear
energy harvesting model is adopted. The problem is non-convex and challenging
to solve. Two algorithms are proposed to tackle this problem based on
semidefinite relaxation (SDR) and successive convex approximation. Simulation
results show that a performance gain can be obtained by using NOMA compared to
the conventional orthogonal multiple access. It is also shown that the
performance of the algorithm using a cost function is better than the algorithm
using SDR at the cost of a higher computation complexity.Comment: This paper has been accepted by ICC 2018 worksho
Optimization techniques for reliable data communication in multi-antenna wireless systems
This thesis looks at new methods of achieving reliable data communication in wireless communication systems using different antenna transmission optimization methods. In particular, the problems of exploitation of MIMO communication channel diversity, secure downlink beamforming techniques, adaptive beamforming techniques, resource allocation methods, simultaneous power and information transfer and energy harvesting within the context
of multi-antenna wireless systems are addressed
On the Performance of Low-Altitude UAV-Enabled Secure AF Relaying with Cooperative Jamming and SWIPT
This paper proposes a novel cooperative secure unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)
aided transmission protocol, where a source (Alice) sends confidential
information to a destination (Bob) via an energy-constrained UAV-mounted
amplify-and-forward (AF) relay in the presence of a ground eavesdropper (Eve).
We adopt destination-assisted cooperative jamming (CJ) as well as simultaneous
wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) at the UAV-mounted relay to
enhance physical-layer security (PLS) and transmission reliability. Assuming a
low altitude UAV, we derive connection probability (CP), secrecy outage
probability (SOP), instantaneous secrecy rate, and average secrecy rate (ASR)
of the proposed protocol over Air-Ground (AG) channels, which are modeled as
Rician fading with elevation-angel dependent parameters. By simulations, we
verify our theoretical results and demonstrate significant performance
improvement of our protocol, when compared to conventional transmission
protocol with ground relaying and UAV-based transmission protocol without
destination-assisted jamming. Finally, we evaluate the impacts of different
system parameters and different UAV's locations on the proposed protocol in
terms of ASR.Comment: 10 pages, 9 figures, Submitted for possible journal publicatio
