摘要:

近年来,太赫兹(THz)通信以其超宽带的特性成为未来无线通信领域的研究热点之一。尽管如此,阻止THz实际部署的一个主要障碍在于其固有的巨大衰减。智能反射面(IRS)和多输入多输出(MIMO)是补偿太赫兹系统中大路径损耗的两种有效方法。本文研究了一种基于IRS的正交频分多址多用户太赫兹MIMO系统,该系统采用稀疏射频链天线结构以降低功耗。目标是通过联合优化基站处的混合模拟/数字波束形成和IRS处的反射矩阵来最大化加权和速率。{由于模拟波束形成和反射矩阵需要满足所有用户和子载波,因此难以直接求解公式化问题,因此,提出了交替迭代优化算法。}具体而言,模拟波束形成的设计通过解决MIMO容量最大化问题,而数字波束形成和反射矩阵优化都解决了使用半定松弛技术。考虑到在基于IRS的系统中获得完美的信道状态信息(CSI)是一项具有挑战性的任务,我们进一步探讨了IRS到用户的信道的不完美CSI的情况。在这种设置下,我们提出了一个强大的波束形成和反射矩阵设计方案,原来制定的非凸优化问题。最后,仿真结果表明所提出的算法的有效性。

英文摘要:

Recently, terahertz (THz) communication has drawn considerable attention as one of the promising technologies for the future wireless communications owning to its ultra-wide bandwidth. Nonetheless, one major obstacle that prevents the actual deployment of THz lies in its inherent huge attenuation. Intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) and multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) represent two effective solutions for compensating the large pathloss in THz systems. In this paper, we consider an IRS-aided multi-user THz MIMO system with orthogonal frequency division multiple access, where the sparse radio frequency chain antenna structure is adopted for reducing the power consumption. The objective is to maximize the weighted sum rate via jointly optimizing the hybrid analog/digital beamforming at the base station and reflection matrix at the IRS. {Since the analog beamforming and reflection matrix need to cater all users and subcarriers, it is difficult to directly solve the formulated problem, and thus, an alternatively iterative optimization algorithm is proposed.} Specifically, the analog beamforming is designed by solving a MIMO capacity maximization problem, while the digital beamforming and reflection matrix optimization are both tackled using semidefinite relaxation technique. Considering that obtaining perfect channel state information (CSI) is a challenging task in IRS-based systems, we further explore the case with the imperfect CSI for the channels from the IRS to users. Under this setup, we propose a robust beamforming and reflection matrix design scheme for the originally formulated non-convex optimization problem. Finally, simulation results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms.
