In this letter, we investigate a UAV-enabled communication system, where a UAV is deployed to communicate with the ground node (GN) in the presence of multiple jammers. We aim to maximize the energy efficiency (EE) of the UAV by optimizing its trajectory, subject to the UAV's mobility constraints. However, the formulated problem is difficult to solve due to the non-convex and fractional form of the objective function. Thus, we propose an iterative algorithm based on successive convex approximation (SCA) technique and Dinkelbach's algorithm to solve it. Numerical results show that the proposed algorithm can strike a better balance between the throughput and energy consumption by the optimized trajectory and thus improve the EE significantly as compared to the benchmark algorithms.
