On the Aperture Efficiency of Intelligent Reflecting Surfaces [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Wireless Communications Letters, 2021
The concept of intelligent reflecting surfaces (IRS) has recently gained significant attention due to their ability to manipulate the impinging electromagnetic signals and offer anomalous reflections. In this letter, we derive and address the missing piece of prior works, namely the IRS aperture efficiency .

Intelligent Reflecting Surfaces for Compute-and-Forward [PDF]

open access: yes2021 Iran Workshop on Communication and Information Theory (IWCIT), 2021
Compute-and-forward is a promising strategy to tackle interference and obtain high rates between the transmitting users in a wireless network. However, the quality of the wireless channels between the users substantially limits the achievable computation rate in such systems. In this paper, we introduce the idea of using intelligent reflecting surfaces

Electromagnetic Model of Reflective Intelligent Surfaces [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Open Journal of the Communications Society, 2021
An accurate and simple analytical model for the computation of the reflection amplitude and phase of Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces is presented. The model is based on a transmission-line circuit representation of the RIS which takes into account the physics behind the structure including the effect of all relevant geometrical and electrical ...

Wireless Network Coding With Intelligent Reflecting Surfaces [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Communications Letters, 2021
Conventional wireless techniques are becoming inadequate for beyond fifth-generation (5G) networks due to latency and bandwidth considerations. To improve the error performance and throughput of wireless communication systems, we propose physical layer network coding (PNC) in an intelligent reflecting surface (IRS)-assisted environment.

On Half-Power Beamwidth of Intelligent Reflecting Surface [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Communications Letters, 2021
Half-power beamwidth (HPBW) is a key parameter to measure the performance of antenna array and the newly proposed intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) systems. In this paper, we first establish a system model for IRS in uniform linear array (ULA) and uniform rectangular array (URA) configurations, then the IRS HPBW in both cases are derived under the ...

On the Position of Intelligent Reflecting Surfaces

open access: yes2021 Joint European Conference on Networks and Communications & 6G Summit (EuCNC/6G Summit), 2021
We study the positional impact of an intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) on the achievable rate for single and multiple antenna systems. We show that in IRS-aided single antenna systems, it is always best to place the IRS as close as possible to the transmitter or receiver since the large-scale fading for IRS-reflected links is the main factor that ...

Intelligent Reflecting Surface Aided Vehicular Communications [PDF]

open access: yes2020 IEEE Globecom Workshops (GC Wkshps, 2020
We investigate the use of an intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) in a millimeter-wave (mmWave) vehicular communication network. An intelligent reflecting surface consists of passive elements, which can reflect the incoming signals with adjustable phase shifts. By properly tuning the phase shifts we can improve link performance.

Optimal design for the artificial‐noise‐aided IRS‐MIMO‐OFDM secure communications

open access: yesIET Communications, 2022
This paper discusses an artificial noise‐aided intelligent reflecting surface‐MIMO–OFDM system physical layer secure communication, in which two cases for the intelligent reflecting surface reflection coefficient models are considered separately, that is

Massive MIMO Communication With Intelligent Reflecting Surface

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Wireless Communications, 2023
This paper studies the feasibility of deploying intelligent reflecting surfaces (IRSs) in massive MIMO (multiple-input multiple-output) systems to improve the performance of users in the service dead zone. To reduce the channel training overhead, we advocate a novel protocol for the uplink communication in the IRS-assisted massive MIMO systems.
