specific Embodiment approach 1

[0133] (1) if figure 1 As shown, the RIS-assisted millimeter wave system model and channel model considered in the present invention are as follows:

[0134] (1.1) The present invention considers a downlink RIS-assisted millimeter-wave system, including a base station BS, a single-antenna user-end UE, an intelligent controller for controlling reflection coefficient, and K blocks of RIS for assisting communication. Both the BS end and each RIS end use a uniform linear array with an element interval of half a wavelength. The number of BS antennas is N BS , the number of reflection units of each RIS is N R . The BS and each RIS are wired to the intelligent controller, so that the BS can control the reflection coefficient of each RIS in real time. Due to the serious path loss in the millimeter wave communication system, the signals reflected twice or more by the RIS are ignored.

[0135] (1.2) Using the Saleh-Valenzuela narrowband channel model, the channel between the BS and...

[0187] For the problem established in step (2.5), in order to improve the efficiency of beam training, the present invention proposes a multicast training scheme that can simultaneously perform beam scanning on multiple paths, as follows:

[0188] (3.1) In the communication system, it is usually considered that the positions of RIS and BS are fixed, so it is assumed that the channel angle of each RIS relative to the BS is known, that is A known. The index of the codeword at the BS that can achieve beam alignment with the k-th block RIS satisfy

[0190] Among them, assuming that the number of RIS is limited and uniformly distributed in the space, different from each other.

[0191] (3.2) Divide beam training into N BS cycle. In the i-th period, the codeword to be trained at the BS is f(i).

[0192] (3.3) Judging whether f(i) is consistent with Adjacent, the beamforming vector at the BS end in the i-th period is obtained.

[0193] When f(i) is not with ...

[0212] For the problem established in step (2.5), in order to further improve the efficiency of beam training on the basis of the second specific embodiment, the present invention proposes a layered multicast training scheme, which can perform layered beam training on multiple paths at the same time, as follows Said:

[0213] (3.1) Obtain the codeword index corresponding to the beam that can be aligned with the k-th block RIS at the BS In the communication system, it is usually considered that the positions of RIS and BS are fixed, so it is assumed that the channel angle of each RIS relative to the BS is known, that is A known. The index of the codeword at the BS that can achieve beam alignment with the k-th block RIS satisfy

[0214]

Abstract

The invention discloses a beam training method in a millimeter wave system assisted by an intelligent reflection surface. The beam training method comprises a multicast training scheme and a layered multicast training scheme. The multicast training comprises two stages. In the first stage, a base station and a RIS perform beam scanning at the same time; and the base station carries out beam scanning on a user, simultaneously divides energy to transmit a beam to the RIS, and controls the RIS to carry out beam scanning on the user; and the user determines an optimal scanning result according to the received signal strength. In the second stage, link-by-link beam training is carried out on the optimal scanning result, and an optimal communication link from the base station to the user is determined. On the basis of multicast training, beam scanning in the first stage is changed into layered beam training by layered multicast training, so that the overhead is further reduced. According to the two schemes provided by the invention, the beam training overhead can be reduced while certain performance is ensured.

Description
