Federated Learning via Intelligent Reflecting Surface [PDF]
Over-the-air computation (AirComp) based federated learning (FL) is capable of achieving fast model aggregation by exploiting the waveform superposition property of multiple access channels. However, the model aggregation performance is severely limited by the unfavorable wireless propagation channels.

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