Due to the constraints on power supply and limited encryption capability, data security based on physical layer security (PLS) techniques in backscatter communications has attracted a lot of attention. In this work, we propose to enhance PLS in a full-duplex symbiotic radio (FDSR) system with a proactive eavesdropper, which may overhear the information and interfere legitimate communications simultaneously by emitting attack signals. To deal with the eavesdroppers, we propose a security strategy based on pseudo-decoding and artificial noise (AN) injection to ensure the performance of legitimate communications through forward noise suppression. A novel AN signal generation scheme is proposed using a pseudo-decoding method, where AN signal is superimposed on data signal to safeguard the legitimate channel. The phase control in the forward noise suppression scheme and the power allocation between AN and data signals are optimized to maximize security throughput. The formulated problem can be solved via problem decomposition and alternate optimization algorithms. Simulation results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed scheme in terms of security throughput and attack mitigation performance.
