Adaptive Secure Transmission for Wireless Powered Communication Networks

This paper investigates secure transmission in a wireless powered communication network(WPCN)with an energy harvesting(EH)source configured with multiple antennas.In the WPCN,the EH source harvests energy from the radio frequency(RF)signals broadcasted by a power beacon(PB),and purely relies on the harvested energy to communicate with the destination in the presence of passive eavesdroppers.It is noteworthy that the RF-EH source is equipped with a finite energy storage to accumulate the harvested energy for the future usage.Moreover,due to energy-constraint and complexitylimitation,the multi-antenna source is only configured with a single RF-chain.To enhance the security for the WPCN,we propose two adaptive transmission schemes,i.e.,energy-aware transmit antenna selection(EATAS)and energy-aware differential spatial modulation(EADSM).According to the energy status and the channel quality,the source adaptively decides whether to transmit confidential information or harvest RF energy.To evaluate the secrecy performance of the proposed schemes,we first study the evolution of the energy storage,and then derive the analytical expressions of connection outage probability(COP),secrecy outage probability(SOP)and efficient secrecy throughput(EST).Numerical results demonstrate that our proposed schemes outperform the existing schemes,i.e.,time-switching based TAS(TS-TAS)Received:May 19,2020 Revised:Sep.13,2020 Editor:Deli Qiao and accumulate-then-transmit(ATT).And,increasing the transmit power of the PB or the capacity of the source’s energy storage is helpful to improve the secrecy performance.Moreover,there exists an optimal transmission rate for each proposed scheme to achieve best secrecy performance.

Communication Coverage in Wireless Passive Sensor Networks

System lifetime of wireless sensor networks (WSN) is inversely proportional to the energy consumed by critically energy-constrained sensor nodes during RF transmission. In that regard, modulated backscattering (MB) is a promising design choice, in which sensor nodes send their data just by switching their antenna impedance and reflecting the incident signal coming from an RF source. Hence, wireless passive sensor networks (WPSN) designed to operate using MB do not have the lifetime constraints of conventional WSN. However, the communication performance of WPSN is directly related to the RF coverage provided over the field the passive sensor nodes are deployed. In this letter, RF communication coverage in WPSN is analytically investigated. The required number of RF sources to obtain interference-free communication connectivity with the WPSN nodes is determined and analyzed in terms of output power and the transmission frequency of RF sources, network size, RF source and WPSN node characteristics.     

Time Synchronization for Cooperative Communication in Wireless Sensor Networks

Time synchronization is crucial for the implementation of cooperative communication in wireless sensor networks. In this paper, we explore the effect of synchronization error on cooperative communication utilizing distributed Alamouti code. The analysis and simulation results show that small synchronization error has negligible effect on bit error rate (BER) performance. In order to synchronize the distributed sensor nodes within an acceptable error, we propose a physical layer synchronization scheme. This scheme consists of an initial synchronization of the cooperative transmitters, synchronization error estimation at the cooperative receiver and finally a feedback phase. A maximum likelihood method is proposed to make the synchronization error estimation. It achieves better performance than the matched filter method at the price of moderate increase in computational complexity and memory space. Two strategies after synchronization error estimation have been analyzed. They provide better BER performance in the existence of initial synchronization error. They are practical to be implemented in the sensor nodes before the Alamouti decoding.     

Reliable and Secure Cooperative Communication for Wireless Sensor Networks Making Use of Cooperative Jamming with Physical Layer Security

Interference is generally considered as the redundant and unwanted occurrence in wireless communication. This research work proposes a novel cooperative jamming mechanism for scalable networks like wireless sensor networks which makes use of friendly interference to confuse the eavesdropper and increase its uncertainty about the source message. The communication link is built with the help of Information theoretic source and channel coding mechanisms. The whole idea is to make use of normally inactive relay nodes in the selective Decode and Forward cooperative communication and let them work as cooperative jamming sources to increase the equivocation of the eavesdropper. In this work, eavesdropper’s equivocation is compared with the main channel in terms of mutual information and secrecy capacity.
