DOI: 10.1109/tvt.2021.3129308
Abstract: Intelligent reflective surfaces (IRSs) are invoked for improving both the spectral efficiency (SE) and energy efficiency (EE). Specifically, an IRS-aided multiple-input multiple-output network is considered, where the performance of randomly roaming users is analyzed by… read more here.
