Abstract

This paper proposes a tri-hybrid beamforming scheme for secure integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) with a dynamic metasurface antenna (DMA) architecture, where the base station (BS) is capable of communicating with legitimate users and sensing the target. There is also an eavesdropper in the system intending to eavesdrop on the confidential information. The tri-hybrid beamforming design problem is formulated with the objective of maximizing the sensing signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) under the constraints of secrecy spectral efficiency (SSE), transmit power, and physical structure limitations. We first solve the problem and obtain the optimized fully-digital beamforming solution through successive convex approximation (SCA) and semidefinite relaxation (SDR) approaches. A triple alternating optimization scheme is then developed to iteratively optimize the digital, analog, and DMA beamformers, progressively approximating the fully-digital solution. Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed secure tri-hybrid beamforming design for DMA-aided ISAC improves the sensing SNR by approximately 3 dB compared to a tri-hybrid beamforming scheme with a fixed DMA electromagnetic design.
