Abstract

In this paper, we investigate the uplink secure communication by combining intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) and energy-harvesting (EH) jammer. Specifically, we propose an IRS-aided secure scheme for the uplink transmission via an EH jammer, to fight against the malicious eavesdropper. An energy transfer (ET) phase and an information transmission (IT) phase are proposed in this scheme. In the ET phase, we optimize the phase-shift matrix of IRS to maximize the harvested energy of jammer. In the IT phase, the phase-shift matrix of IRS and time switching factor are jointly optimized to maximize the secrecy rate. To tackle the non-convex problem, we first decompose it into two subproblems to solve by capitalizing on semi-definite relaxation (SDR) and Lagrange duality. Then, the solutions to the original problem can be obtained by alternately optimizing the two subproblems. Simulation results show that the proposed Jammer-IRS assisted secure transmission scheme can significantly enhance the uplink security.
