Full-Duplex Secure Communications in Cellular Networks With Downlink Wireless Power Transfer.

This paper investigates full-duplex (FD) secure transmissions with simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) on downlink (DL), where an FD base station, with multiple transmit antennas and multiple receive antennas, serves a group of single-antenna users on both DL and uplink (UL). An optimization problem with non-convex form is formulated for minimizing the system power under constraints on energy harvesting (EH) and security rates. In order to efficiently solve it, the original non-convex problem is first approximated to a convex one and then casted into a form of second-order cone programming (SOCP). Iterative solving algorithms are presented with the computational complexity analysis. Simulation results show that the proposed FD secure scheme is more power-efficient than conventional one, and the SOCP formulation is more computationally efficient than its semi-definite programming alternative. Compared with half-duplex schemes, the FD scheme is also advantageous in power performance especially under high DL and low UL security rate requirements. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
