| Summary: | In this paper, we consider a reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS)-assisted multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) secure communication system, where only legitimate user's (Bob's) statistical channel state information (CSI) can be obtained at the transmitter (Alice), while eavesdropper's (Eve's) CSI is unknown. Firstly, the analytical expression of the achievable ergodic rate at Bob is obtained. Then, by exploiting Bob's statistical CSI, we jointly design the transmit covariance matrix at Alice and the phase shift matrix at the RIS to minimize the transmit power of the information signal under the quality-of-service (QoS) constraint of Bob. Finally, we propose an artificial noise (AN)-aided method without Eve's CSI to enhance the security of this system and use the residual power to design the transmit covariance for AN. Simulation results verify the convergence of the proposed method, and also show that there exists a trade-off between the secrecy rate and QoS of Bob.
