Robust Transmission Design for RIS-Aided Communications with Both Transceiver Hardware Impairments and Imperfect CSI

Reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) or intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) has recently been envisioned as one of the most promising technologies in the future sixth-generation (6G) communications. In this paper, we consider the joint optimization of the transmit beamforming at the base station (BS) and the phase shifts at the RIS for an RIS-aided wireless communication system with both hardware impairments and imperfect channel state information (CSI). Specifically, we assume both the BS-user channel and the BS-RIS-user channel are imperfect due to the channel estimation error, and we consider the channel estimation error under the statistical CSI error model. Then, the transmit power of the BS is minimized, subject to the outage probability constraint and the unit-modulus constraints on the reflecting elements. By using Bernstein-type inequality and semidefinite relaxation (SDR) to reformulate the constraints, we transform the optimization problem into a semidefinite programming (SDP) problem. Numerical results show that the proposed robust design algorithm can ensure communication quality of the user in the presence of both hardware impairments and imperfect CSI.

RIS-Aided D2D Communications Relying on Statistical CSI with Imperfect Hardware

In this letter, we investigate a reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RIS)-aided device to device (D2D) communication system over Rician fading channels with imperfect hardware including both hardware impairment at the transceivers and phase noise at the RISs. This paper has optimized the phase shift by a genetic algorithm (GA) method to maximize the achievable rate for the continuous phase shifts (CPSs) and discrete phase shifts (DPSs). We also consider the two special cases of no RIS hardware impairments (N-RIS-HWIs) and no transceiver hardware impairments (N-T-HWIs). We present closed-form expressions for the achievable rate of different cases and study the impact of hardware impairments on the communication quality. Finally, simulation results validate the analytic work.

Multi-Pair Two-Way Massive MIMO DF Relaying Over Rician Fading Channels Under Imperfect CSI

We investigate a multi-pair two-way decode-andforward relaying aided massive multiple-input multiple-output antenna system under Rician fading channels, in which multiple pairs of users exchange information through a relay station having multiple antennas. Imperfect channel state information is considered in the context of maximum-ratio processing. Closedform expressions are derived for approximating the sum spectral efficiency (SE) of the system. Moreover, we obtain the powerscaling laws at the users and the relay station to satisfy a certain SE requirement in three typical scenarios. Finally, simulations validate the accuracy of the derived results.

Multiuser Full-Duplex Two-Way Communications via Intelligent Reflecting Surface

Low-cost passive intelligent reflecting surfaces (IRSs) have recently been envisioned as a revolutionary technology capable of reconfiguring the wireless propagation environment through carefully tuning reflection elements. This paper proposes deploying an IRS to cover the dead zone of cellular multiuser full-duplex (FD) two-way communication links while suppressing user-side self-interference (SI) and co-channel interference (CI). Based on information exchanged by the base station (BS) and all users, this approach can potentially double the spectral efficiency. To ensure network fairness, we jointly optimize the precoding matrix of the BS and the reflection coefficients of the IRS to maximize the weighted minimum rate (WMR) of all users, subject to maximum transmit power and unit-modulus constraints. We reformulate this non-convex problem and decouple it into two subproblems. Then the optimization variables in the equivalent problem are alternately optimized by adopting the block coordinate descent (BCD) algorithm. In order to further reduce the computational complexity, we propose the minorization-maximization (MM) algorithm for optimizing the precoding matrix and the reflection coefficient vector by defining minorizing functions in the surrogate problems. Finally, simulation results confirm the convergence and efficiency of our proposed algorithm, and validate the advantages of introducing IRS to improve coverage in blind areas.

Secure Wireless Communication in RIS-Aided MISO Systems with Hardware Impairments

In practice, residual transceiver hardware impairments inevitably lead to distortion noise which causes the performance loss. In this paper, we study the robust transmission design for a reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS)-aided secure communication system in the presence of transceiver hardware impairments. We aim for maximizing the secrecy rate while ensuring the transmit power constraint on the active beamforming at the base station and the unit-modulus constraint on the passive beamforming at the RIS. To address this problem, we adopt the alternate optimization method to iteratively optimize one set of variables while keeping the other set fixed. Specifically, the successive convex approximation (SCA) method is used to solve the active beamforming optimization subproblem, while the passive beamforming is obtained by using the semidefinite program (SDP) method. Numerical results illustrate that the proposed transmission design scheme is more robust to the hardware impairments than the conventional non-robust scheme that ignores the impact of the hardware impairments.

Analysis and Optimization for RIS-Aided Multi-Pair Communications Relying on Statistical CSI

In this paper, we investigate a reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) aided multi-pair communication system, in which multi-pair users exchange information via an RIS. We derive an approximate expression of the achievable rate by assuming that statistical channel state information (CSI) is available. A genetic algorithm (GA) to solve the rate maximization problem is proposed as well. In particular, we consider implementations of RISs with continuous phase shifts (CPSs) and discrete phase shifts (DPSs). Simulation results verify the correctness of the obtained results and show that the proposed GA method has almost the same performance as the globally optimal solution. In addition, numerical results show that three quantization bits can achieve a large portion of the sum achievable rate for the CPSs setup.
