Abstract

This article proposes a beamforming (BF) scheme for a cognitive satellite terrestrial network, where the base station (BS) and a cooperative terminal (CT) are exploited as green interference resources to enhance the system security performance in the presence of unknown eavesdroppers. Different from the related works, we assume that only imperfect channel information of the mobile user (MU) and earth station (ES) is available. Specifically, we formulate an optimization problem with the objective to degrade the possible wiretap channels within the private signal beampattern region, while imposing constraints on the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) at the MU, the interference level of the ES and the total transmit power budget of the BS and CT. To solve this mathematically intractable problem, we propose a joint artificial noise generation and cooperative jamming BF scheme to suppress the interception. Finally, the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed BF scheme are confirmed through computer simulations.
