Abstract: | In this paper, we investigate secure uplink and downlink communications between an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and multiple user equipments (UEs) in the presence of multiple ground-based eavesdroppers (EVs) and unfriendly jammers. In order to guarantee the secure uplink and downlink transmissions, we consider a novel secure transmission scheme, which involves a power splitting based downlink transmission and scheduling of uplink and downlink transmission. Explicitly, we aim to maximize the average secrecy rate (ASR) by optimizing the UAV trajectory, the transmit power of the UAV and UEs, and scheduling of uplink and downlink transmission. Although the formulated problem is nonconvex, we propose an efficient solution by jointly applying the techniques of block coordinate descent and successive convex approximation. Numerical results show that the proposed scheme achieves a better ASR than the benchmark schemes. |
