Abstract
In this letter, we investigate a robust transmit optimization design based on an artificial noise (AN)-aided precoding scheme for maximizing secrecy rate in a multiple-input multiple-output multiple-eavesdropper multicast network where a transmitter sends confidential information to multiple intended users and provides energy for multiple idle nodes while multiple passive eavesdroppers try to overhear the secret information. Supposing Gaussian CSI uncertainties, the proposed outage-constrained secrecy rate maximization (OC-SRM) problem is nonconvex and its analytical analysis is more challenging than several existing OC-SRM schemes. Technically, to circumvent this mathematically intractable secrecy problem, we resort to low SNR approximation and some conservative approximations (e.g., Bernstein-type inequality and sphere bounding) to reformulate the OC-SRM problem into two convex subproblems which can be efficiently solved by the off-the-shelf optimization solver. Simulation results are provided to validate the security performance of the robust AN-aided precoding design.
