Abstract

The conventional reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) assisted far-field communication systems can only implement angle beamforming, which actually limits the capability for reconfiguring the wireless propagation environment. To overcome this limitation, this paper proposes a newly designed frequency diverse RIS (FD-RIS), which can achieve joint distance-angle beamforming with the assistance of the time modulation technology. The signal processing model for FD-RIS-aided wireless communications is first derived. Then, an optimization problem aimed at maximizing the achievable rate is formulated where the frequency-time modulations are jointly optimized to achieve distance-angle beamforming. Furthermore, a novel iterative algorithm based on the cross-entropy optimization (CEO) framework is proposed to effectively handle the non-convex optimization problem. The numerical results validate that the proposed FD-RIS assisted communication scheme can achieve a notable performance improvement compared with the baseline scheme utilizing traditional RIS. In addition, the effectiveness of the proposed CEO algorithm is further verified by comparing with the benchmark using the genetic algorithm (GA).
