Uplink Transceiver Design and Optimization for Transmissive RMS Multi-Antenna Systems

In this paper, a novel uplink communication for the transmissive reconfigurable metasurface (RMS) multi-antenna system is investigated. Specifically, a transmissive RMS-based receiver equipped with a single receiving antenna is first proposed, and a far-near field channel model is also given. Then, in order to maximize the system sum-rate, we formulate a joint optimization problem over subcarrier allocation, power allocation and RMS transmissive coefficient design. Since the coupling of optimization variables, the problem is non-convex, so it is challenging to solve it directly. In order to tackle this problem, the alternating optimization (AO) algorithm is used to decouple the optimization variables and divide the problem into two subproblems to solve. Numerical results verify that the proposed algorithm has good convergence performance and can improve system sum-rate compared with other benchmark algorithms.
