摘要:

毫米波(mmWave)通信中的一个基本挑战是对阻挡对象的敏感性。缓解这个问题的一种方法是使用可重构智能表面(RIS)。然而,由于RIS上的大量无源反射元件,信道估计变成一个具有挑战性的任务。在本文中,我们解决的信道估计的RIS辅助毫米波通信系统的定位方法的基础上。所提出的想法包括利用毫米波信道的稀疏性和RIS的拓扑结构。特别是,我们首次提出了反射单元集(RUS)的概念,以提高RIS的灵活性。然后,我们提出了一种新的共面最大似然(CML)的3D定位方法的基础上RUS,并推导出Cramer-Rao下界(CRLB)的定位方法。此外,我们开发了一个有效的定位为基础的信道估计方案具有低计算复杂性。与现有的方法相比,我们提出的方法在信道捕获中需要较少的时频资源,因为复杂度与RIS的总大小无关,但取决于RUS的大小,RUS仅是RIS的一小部分。仿真结果证实了该方法的有效性。

英文摘要:

A fundamental challenge in millimeter-wave (mmWave) communication is the susceptibility to blocking objects. One way to alleviate this problem is the use of reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RIS). Nevertheless, due to the large number of passive reflecting elements on RIS, channel estimation turns out to be a challenging task. In this paper, we address the channel estimation for RIS-aided mmWave communication systems based on a localization method. The proposed idea consists of exploiting the sparsity of the mmWave channel and the topology of the RIS. In particular, we first propose the concept of reflecting unit set (RUS) to improve the flexibility of RIS. We then propose a novel coplanar maximum likelihood-based (CML) 3D positioning method based on the RUS, and derive the Cramer-Rao lower bound (CRLB) for the positioning method. Furthermore, we develop an efficient positioning-based channel estimation scheme with low computational complexity. Compared to state-of-the-art methods, our proposed method requires less time-frequency resources in channel acquisition as the complexity is independent to the total size of the RIS but depends on the size of the RUSs, which is only a small portion of the RIS. Large performance gains are confirmed in simulations, which proves the effectiveness of the proposed method.
