Intelligent Reflecting Surface Assisted mmWave Communication Using Mixed Timescale Channel State Information
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A key challenge for millimeter wave (mmWave) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication is that the signals at mmWave band are highly susceptible to blockage. To address this challenge, we introduce intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) to increase coverage area and improve communication performance. This paper considers a joint design of hybrid precoders at the base station and the passive precoder at the IRS to maximize the average spectral efficiency in an IRS-assisted mmWave MIMO system by exploiting the mixed timescale channel state information (CSI). Specifically, the hybrid precoders are designed according to the instantaneous CSI of the overall channel, while the IRS reflection coefficient matrix is optimized using the statistical CSI of all links. However, such a design problem is challenging to solve due to the non-convexity and the mixed timescale. This work proposes efficient algorithms to design jointly the hybrid precoders and the IRS reflection coefficient matrix where the update of the IRS reflection coefficient matrix is independent of the hybrid precoders. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms. More interestingly, the results also show that adding low-cost reflector elements at the IRS can reduce the number of required high-cost radio frequency chains.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
