Secure Full-Duplex Two-Way Relaying for SWIPT
This letter studies bi-directional secure information exchange in a
simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) system enabled by
a full-duplex (FD) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) amplify-and-forward
(AF) relay. The AF relay injects artificial noise (AN) in order to confuse the
eavesdropper. Specifically, we assume a zeroforcing (ZF) solution constraint to
eliminate the residual self-interference (RSI). As a consequence, we address
the optimal joint design of the ZF matrix and the AN covariance matrix at the
relay node as well as the transmit power at the sources. We propose an
alternating algorithm utilizing semi-definite programming (SDP) technique and
one-dimensional searching to achieve the optimal solution. Simulation results
are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.Comment: Submitted to IEEE Wireless Communications Letter

Simultaneous wireless information and power transfer in full-duplex communication systems
As wireless devices are mostly constrained by their inability to operate independently infinitely away from centralised power sources, radio frequency (RF) energy harvesting (EH) has been identified as a promising technique for future wireless devices. For this reason, this thesis introduces a novelty in RF EH full-duplex (FD) wireless communication systems. Specifically, this thesis investigate the potentials of simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) in FD communication systems. This thesis firstly focuses on optimal transmit strategies, rate maximization and power minimizing approach for SWIPT in FD systems. Using the rate-split method, difference of convex programming, semi-definite programming technique and one-dimensional search, we reformulate complex optimization problems to yield problem formulations that can be efficiently solved, thus we develop rate maximization algorithm for SWIPT in a point-to-point FD system, SWIPT in FD multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) two-way relay system and power minimization approach for SWIPT in a multiuser MIMO FD system. This thesis also presents research work carried out with the aim of maximising the secrecy sum-rate for SWIPT in FD systems. In this context, we employ the use of an amplify and forward (AF) relay to inject artificial noise (AN) in order to confuse the eavesdropper. Thus, we address the optimal joint design of the beamforming matrix and AN covariance matrix at the relay, and the transmit power at the sources. Comprehensively, we present extensive theoretical and computer simulations to corroborate the need for joint optimization
Secure Simultaneous Information and Power Transfer for Downlink Multi-User Massive MIMO
In this article, downlink secure transmission in simultaneous information and power transfer (SWIPT) system enabled with massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) is studied. A base station (BS) with a large number of antennas transmits energy and information signals to its intended users, but these signals are also received by an active eavesdropper. The users and eavesdropper employ a power splitting technique to simultaneously decode information and harvest energy. Massive MIMO helps the BS to focus energy to the users and prevent information leakage to the eavesdropper. The harvested energy by each user is employed for decoding information and transmitting uplink pilot signals for channel estimation. It is assumed that the active eavesdropper also harvests energy in the downlink and then contributes during the uplink training phase. Achievable secrecy rate is considered as the performance criterion and a closed-form lower bound for it is derived. To provide secure transmission, the achievable secrecy rate is then maximized through an optimization problem with constraints on the minimum harvested energy by the user and the maximum harvested energy by the eavesdropper. Numerical results show the effectiveness of using massive MIMO in providing physical layer security in SWIPT systems and also show that our closed-form expressions for the secrecy rate are accurate

these signals are also received by an active eavesdropper. The users and
eavesdropper employ a power splitting technique to simultaneously decode

uplink pilot signals for channel estimation. It is assumed that the active
eavesdropper also harvests energy in the downlink and then contributes during
the uplink training phase. Achievable secrecy rate is considered as the
performance criterion and a closed-form lower bound for it is derived. To
provide secure transmission, the achievable secrecy rate is then maximized
through an optimization problem with constraints on the minimum harvested
