Secure Transmission in Multicarrier Power-Splitting Wireless Powered Communication Networks with Full-duplex Receivers

We consider a three-node multicarrier network consisting of a source node, a wireless powered full-duplex destination node, and an eavesdropper. The destination node is assumed to adopt the power splitting technique to coordinate information decoding and energy harvesting. To improve security performance, the destination node can send jamming signals using the harvested energy. The problem for maximizing the secrecy rate by optimizing transmit power allocation at the source node, the transmit power allocation for jamming at the destination node and the power splitting ratio at the destination node is investigated and solved by a proposed iterative algorithm. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms other reference algorithms.
