Quick Overview

  • To realize a full-space smart radio environment, each STAR-RIS element has to dynamically impose two distinct tunable phase-shift values, one for the transmitted signal and one for the reflected signal.
  • The phase shift can/cant be adjusted independently.

Independent adjustment

According to the Maxwell’s Equations, the phase shift of both transmitting and reflecting can be adjusted independently if the if the impedances and ​ in (1) and (2) can take on arbitrary complex values, which means that the STAR-RIS required a active or lossy elements.

OMA v.s. NOMA

OMA

选择FDMA,且两个用户占用正交的、相同带宽的频带。则其可达速率为:

有意思的是,带宽变为1/2,因为两个用户各占一半,然后噪声功率也下降,因为用户带宽各占一半

NOMA

一个用户采用SIC(连续干扰消除)来消除干扰。为了成功实施SIC,给强信道弱功率,弱信道强功率

  • 基于CSI的用户排序
  • CSI强的用户先解码CSI弱的用户的信号
  • 然后CSI强的通过SIC减去用户弱的,得到自己的信号
  • 弱信道将强信道(弱功率)当做干扰

例如,R强,T弱,则有:

  • 先R解T:

  • 再R解R:

  • 再T解T:

Three available optimization methods

Primary-Secondary Phase-Shift Configuration (PS-PSC) Strategy

step1: 先只考虑主要用户,而忽略其中的约束

step2: 再考虑次要用户,次要用户相移为主要用户的v调整(次要用户的相移为主要用户相移的 or
