AN-Aided Secure Beamforming in SWIPT-Aware Mobile Edge Computing Systems with Cognitive Radio

الملخص EN

Simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) becomes more and more popular in cognitive radio (CR) networks, as it can increase the resource reuse rate of the system and extend the user’s lifetime.

Due to the deployment of energy harvesting nodes, traditional secure beamforming designs are not suitable for SWIPT-enabled CR networks as the power control and energy allocation should be considered.

To address this problem, a dedicated green edge power grid is built to realize energy sharing between the primary base stations (PBSs) and cognitive base stations (CBSs) in SWIPT-enabled mobile edge computing (MEC) systems with CR.

The energy and computing resource optimal allocation problem is formulated under the constraints of security, energy harvesting, power transfer, and tolerable interference.

As the problem is nonconvex with probabilistic constraints, approximations based on generalized Bernstein-type inequalities are adopted to transform the problem into solvable forms.

Then, a robust and secure artificial noise- (AN-) aided beamforming algorithm is presented to minimize the total transmit power of the CBS.

Simulation results demonstrate that the algorithm achieves a close-to-optimal performance.

In addition, the robust and secure AN-aided CR based on SWIPT with green energy sharing is shown to require a lower transmit power compared with traditional systems.
