Uplink Transceiver Design and Optimization for Transmissive RMS Multi-Antenna Systems
share
In this paper, a novel uplink communication for the transmissive reconfigurable metasurface (RMS) multi-antenna system with orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) is investigated. Specifically, a transmissive RMS-based receiver equipped with a single receiving antenna is first proposed, and a far-near field channel model based on planar waves and spherical waves is given. Then, in order to maximize the system sum-rate of uplink communications, we formulate a joint optimization problem over subcarrier allocation, power allocation and RMS transmissive coefficient design. Due to the coupling of optimization variables, the optimization problem is non-convex, so it is challenging to solve it directly. In order to tackle this problem, the alternating optimization (AO) algorithm is used to decouple the optimization variables and divide the problem into two sub-problems to solve. First, the problem of joint subcarrier allocation and power allocation is solved via the Lagrangian dual decomposition method. Then, the RMS transmissive coefficient design can be obtained by applying difference-of-convex (DC) programming, successive convex approximation (SCA) and penalty function methods. Finally, the two sub-problems are iterated alternately until convergence is achieved. Numerical simulation results verify that the proposed algorithm has good convergence performance and can improve system sum-rate compared with other benchmark algorithms.
