Title
Robust secrecy beamforming for wireless information and power transfer in multiuser MISO communication system
Abstract
In this paper, we study the max-min fairness for robust secrecy beamforming design in a multiuser MISO communication system with simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT). In particular, the imperfect channel state information (CSI) and power splitting information receiver (IR) are taken into account. We model the design as an optimization problem which maximizes the minimum harvested energy among the multi-antenna energy receivers (ERs). Besides, both the secure communication requirement and the lowest electrical energy storage threshold at IR must be guaranteed in our formulated optimization problem. The considered max-min problem is non-convex and hard to tackle. By introducing the technique of semidefinite relaxation (SDR), we prove the tightness of this relaxation and obtain the global optimal solution of our original optimization problem. Moreover, a suboptimal beamforming design scheme is proposed with low computational complexity. Simulation results show that our proposed robust schemes are more efficient than other schemes in terms of energy harvesting and transmit power saving.
