UAV-Enabled Jamming Noise for Achieving Secure Communications in Cognitive Radio Networks

초록

In this paper, physical layer security is considered for cognitive radio networks using an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-enabled jamming noise. In the studied model, a secondary transmitter sends confidential messages to a secondary receiver in the presence of an external eavesdropper (Eve), and the UAV acts as a friendly jammer that degrades the decoding capability of Eve. Therefore, resource allocation in such a network must jointly optimize the transmission power and UAV's trajectory to maximize the secrecy rate, while satisfying a given interference threshold at the primary receiver. The design problem is non-convex, and thus, global optimality is difficult to obtain. Aiming to solve this problem, we first transform it into a more tractable form, and then propose a successive convex approximation-based algorithm for its solutions. The proposed algorithm has a low computational complexity and is guaranteed to obtain at least a locally optimal solution of the original problem. Numerical results are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed design, compared to the existing ones. © 2019 IEEE.
