摘要：
Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-enabled backscatter communications (BackComm) is deemed to be a vital technique enabling the data transmission over massive battery-less devices for Internet of Things (IoT). However, the UAV-enabled Backcomm suffers from information leakage due to the broadcasting nature of wireless channels. To cope with the security issue, in this paper, a UAV-enabled multi-user secure BackComm system is developed using analog beamforming (ABF) and randomized continuous wave (RCW) techniques, where the multiple users are supported by the multi-carrier RCW over a single low-complexity radio frequency (RF) chain. By exploiting the RCW transmitted towards backscatter, the eavesdropping link can be eroded without any specific jamming signals. The closed-form of the secrecy rate is studied with the approximations, which is then maximized by jointly optimizing the beamforming together with the UAV’s location and the RCW settings. Simulation results are carried out to confirm the accuracy of the proposed approximation, while the convergence behavior of the optimization algorithm is analyzed. As a result, it can be shown that the secrecy rate can be significantly improved compared with the benchmark schemes.
