Abstract

In traditional half-duplex (HD) communication systems, the HD base station (BS) can transmit artificial noise (AN) to jam the eavesdroppers for securing the downlink (DL) communication. However, guaranteeing uplink (UL) transmission is not possible with an HD BS because HD BSs cannot jam the eavesdroppers during UL transmission. In this chapter, we investigate the resource allocation algorithm design for secure multiuser systems employing a full-duplex (FD) BS for serving multiple HD DL and UL users simultaneously. In particular, the FD BS transmits AN to guarantee the concurrent DL and UL communication security. We propose a multi-objective optimization framework to study two conflicting yet desirable design objectives, namely total DL transmit power minimization and total UL transmit power minimization. To this end, the weighted Tchebycheff method is adopted to formulate the resource allocation algorithm design as a multi-objective optimization problem (MOOP). The considered MOOP takes into account the quality-of-service (QoS) requirements of all legitimate users for guaranteeing secure DL and UL transmission in the presence of potential eavesdroppers. Thereby, secure UL transmission is enabled by the FD BS, which would not be possible with an HD BS. Although the considered MOOP is non-convex, we solve it optimally by semidefinite programming (SDP) relaxation. Simulation results not only unveil the trade-off between the total DL transmit power and the total UL transmit power, but also confirm that the proposed secure FD system can guarantee concurrent secure DL and UL transmission and provide substantial power savings over a baseline system.
