[0059] Specifically, in step S2, the hardware non-ideal factors are actual hardware defects and limitations, including but not limited to hardware loss of transceiver, nonlinear characteristics of power amplifier, phase noise, quantization error and limited resolution effect;

[0060] The auxiliary variables include auxiliary variables for decoupling SINR expression, distance auxiliary variables in UAV position optimization, and Lagrange multipliers for dual transformation;

[0061] When calculating the auxiliary variables, the base station and the UAV-reconfigurable intelligent surface cooperatively send pilot sequences during system operation, the Internet of Things terminal transmits weighted data frames uplink, and the control center feeds back the received channel information; that is, the base station and the UAV-RIS cooperatively send pilot sequences, the IoT terminal transmits weighted data frames uplink, and the CC feeds back the received channel information; the optimization problem containing coupled variables is converted into at least two sub-problems which are easy to solve step by step;

[0062] Specifically, in step S3, when initializing the reference model, the central processing server uses compressed sensing and least squares method to jointly estimate the cascaded IoT-RIS-CC MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) channel and hardware damage model parameters combined with hardware monitoring data.

[0063] Specifically, in step S4, when the optimization cycle is determined, the server constructs an optimization problem of link performance and hardware imperfection with the goal of maximizing the weighted sum spectral efficiency (WSSE), that is, an optimization problem considering link performance and hardware imperfection comprehensively.

[0064] Specifically, in steps S5-S7, when the power optimization, passive beamforming optimization, and UAV position optimization are performed, the following steps are included:

[0065] S51, the optimization problem is divided into several sub-problems by a fractional programming method, and the IoT transmission power in S5, the RIS phase configuration in S6, and the UAV position / attitude in S7 are iteratively solved under an alternating optimization framework; the RIS phase optimization adopts a manifold optimization algorithm, and the UAV position optimization adopts an SCA method to ensure efficient convergence of the solving process.

[0070] In one specific embodiment, the robust design method of the air-reconfigurable intelligent surface communication system of the present embodiment includes the following stages:

[0077] On this basis, in step S3, when initializing the reference model, taking the weighted sum WSSE maximization as the overall optimization objective, the terminal transmit power, the passive phase configuration of the RIS, and the UAV position are jointly optimized to achieve robust improvement of link performance under the conditions of meeting multiple quality of service (QoS) and physical constraints such as decoding bit error rate, power budget, RIS phase constraint, and UAV flight range.

[0078] Since the proposed optimization problem has highly non-convex and multi-variable coupling characteristics, in step S4, when determining the optimization cycle, the FP decoupling technology is further adopted to transform the original problem into a series of sub-problems, and the AO framework is used to iteratively solve the transmit power, RIS phase, and UAV position. Among them, the RIS phase configuration uses the Manifold optimization algorithm to achieve fast convergence, and the UAV position optimization uses the SCA method to improve the solving efficiency; the robust optimization algorithm can take into account hardware non-ideality, complex channel conditions, and multi-objective performance requirements, and provides a feasible and efficient link adaptive optimization method for space-ground-integrated communication systems.

[0146] By using a successive convex approximation algorithm, the non-convex problem (P8) can be transformed into a convex problem (P9) of equations (42)-(45):
