With the advent of Internet of Everything (IoE) and the era of big data, massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) is considered an essential technology to meet the growing communication requirements for beyond 5G and the forthcoming 6G networks. This paper considers a secure massive MIMO system, where the legitimate user and the base station (BS) exchange messages via two-way relays with the presence of passive eavesdroppers. To achieve the trade-off between the physical-layer security and communication reliability, we design a cooperative transmission mode based on multiple-relay collaboration, where some relays broadcast the received signals and other relays act as friendly jammers to prevent the interception by eavesdroppers. A quantum chemical reaction optimization (QCRO) algorithm is proposed to find the most suitable scheme for multiple-relay collaboration. Simulation results highlight excellent performance of the proposed transmission mode under QCRO in different communication scenarios, which can be considered a potential solution for the security issue in future wireless networks.

“…Throughout the literature, to the best of the authors' knowledge, the optimized transmission for a SWIPT system with pilot spoofing attack has not been considered. However, there has been research that explores new signal processing methods to enhance the information-secrecy in the presence of a pilot spoofing attack [1], [3]- [9]. The recently developed signal processing algorithms consider recovering network security either by: 1) improving the processing of the signal (which might include the information and/or artificial noise (AN)) transmission [1], [3]- [7]; 2) or by improving both the processing of the signal and the training sequence transmission [8], [9].…”

“…This was exploited to improve the optimized downlink beamforming with a secrecy rate objective. The same system setup was considered in [3], however, the EV can decode the information signal and jam the IU in full-duplex mode using two different antenna subsets. In the same way, the transmitter tackles that by jamming the EV using a subset of its antennas, while the remaining antennas are used for information signal transmission.…”

We consider the optimization of the downlink transmission for simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) in multi-cell massive multiple-input multipleoutput (MIMO) systems. The system comprises a two-antenna active energy harvester (EH) which is capable of legitimately harvesting energy via one antenna, and illegitimately and actively eavesdropping the signal intended for certain information user(s) (IU(s)) via the other antenna for the purpose of information decoding or energy harvesting. Thereby, the considered problems are: 1) when the EH eavesdrops for the purpose of information decoding, i.e., the EH is information-untrusted by the base station (BS), we propose to maximize the worst-case secrecy rate under a constraint on a worst-case average harvested energy (AHE); 2) when the EH eavesdrops one or multiple IUs for energy harvesting, i.e., the EH is information-trusted by the BS, we propose to maximize the sum-rate of the IUs under a constraint on a worst-case AHE by the EH. We derive asymptotic expressions for a lower bound on ergodic secrecy rate (ESR) and AHE in large system limit. Then, we use these results to optimize the power allocation for downlink SWIPT transmissions which include: information signals, artificial noise (AN) and energy signal towards the IUs, legitimate and illegitimate antennas of the EH, respectively. Simulation results show the accuracy of our asymptotic analysis. We show that there is a performance tradeoff between the worst-case ESR and the worst-case AHE. In addition, the impact of the combined legitimate/illegitimate operation of the EH on the SWIPT performance is evaluated.
