Abstract
The spectral efficiency of wireless networks can be made nearly infinitely large by deploying many antennas, but the deployment of very many antennas requires new topologies beyond the compact and discrete antenna arrays used by conventional base stations. In this paper, we consider the large intelligent surface scenario where small antennas are deployed on a large and dense two-dimensional grid. Building on the heritage of MIMO, we first analyze the beamwidth and sidelobes when transmitting from large intelligent surfaces. We compare different precoding schemes and determine how to optimize the transmit power with respect to different utility functions.
