ABSTRACT

For simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT), secure communication is an important issue. In this correspondence, we study the secure relay beamforming (SRB) scheme for SWIPT in a nonregenerative multiantenna relay network. We propose a constrained concave convex procedure (CCCP)-based iterative algorithm that is able to achieve a local optimum, where the secrecy rate is maximized, and the relay transmit power and energy harvesting constraints are satisfied. Simulation results have shown that our proposed CCCP-based iterative algorithm achieves a larger secrecy rate and lower computational complexity than the convectional SRB schemes. Since the CCCP-based iterative algorithm is still complex, we propose a semidefinite programming (SDP)-based noniterative suboptimal algorithm and a closed-form suboptimal algorithm. It is shown that when the maximum transmit power of the relay to noise power ratio is high, the SDP-based noniterative suboptimal algorithm performs close to the CCCP-based iterative algorithm.
