面向低空无人机的反射信道估计与优化技术

    Estimation and optimization of reflection channels for unmanned aerial vehicles in low altitude

    • 针对低空经济无人机数据上行通信面临的信道环境复杂、易受遮挡的问题,可采用智能反射面(RIS)引入反射信道进行数据传输,在接收端采用单载波频域均衡(SC-FDE)技术提高抗多径能力,并通过调整RIS的反射系数来优化系统的性能。现有文献在进行优化设计时通常假设可以获得完美的信道系数,没有考虑估计算法的误差。本文提出一种基于信道估计的RIS优化算法。该算法基于信道估计结果调节RIS的反射系数以获得最大的接收信噪比,并使用一种迭代算法对该优化问题进行求解。仿真结果表明:RIS的反射系数根据信道估计结果进行优化后,相比传统未优化的系统,在误码率为1E-3时有约5 dB的提升,这证明了优化算法的有效性。

       

      Abstract: In the low-altitude economy scenario, the uplink communication of an unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV)may face a complex and easily obstructed channel environment. A reconfigurable intelligent surface(RIS)is employed to introduce a reflection path for data transmission, and single-carrier frequency-domain equalization(SC-FDE)is adopted at the receiver to improve the anti-multipath capability. The system performance is then optimized by adjusting the reflection coefficients of RIS elements. However, existing literature usually assumes perfect channel state information(CSI)is available, without considering estimation errors. In this paper, we propose a RIS optimization algorithm based on the channel estimation results. The reflection coefficients are optimized using an iterative algorithm to maximize the received signal-to-noise ratio. Simulation results indicate that the optimized system can achieve about 5 dB gain at a bit error rate of 10−3 compared to the unoptimized one, which demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.
