Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the secure transmission in two-way untrusted amplify-and-forward relay networks with simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT). Two secure SWIPT relaying strategies, namely, secure power splitting (SPS) and secure time switching (STS), are studied with the objective of secrecy rate (SR) and secure energy efficiency (SEE) maximization. First, the high signal-to-noise ratio approximations of SR and SEE are established, based on which non-convex SPS-based and convex STS-based SR maximization problems are formulated to jointly optimize the source transmit power and resource division ratio. Suboptimal solutions are obtained by employing Dinkelbach's method and Newton's method, respectively. Furthermore, to guarantee both the energy efficiency and secure quality of service (QoS) performance, SEE maximization problems are formulated with the consideration of the energy harvesting activation constraint and the target SR requirement. The intractable non-convex SEE maximization problems are reformulated as parameter programming, transformed to Lagrange dual problems, and finally solved by two SEE resource allocation algorithms with low complexity. Numerical results verify the convergence and effectiveness of the proposed algorithms and provide new insights into relaying strategy design and secure relay placement.
