Intelligent Reflecting Surface Deployment for Low-Altitude Coverage: Illumination Geometry, Directional Characteristics, and Optimization
Guoying Zhang, Qingqing Wu, Ailing Zheng +3
Terrestrial base stations (BSs) are typically configured with fixed downtilt to serve ground users, resulting in weak illumination of low-altitude airspace even under line-of-sight…
Multi-User MIMO with Rotatable Antennas and IRS: Joint Antenna Boresight and IRS Orientation Design
Guoying Zhang, Qingqing Wu, Ziyuan Zheng +5
In this paper, we investigate an intelligent reflecting surface (IRS)-assisted multi-user system, where the base station (BS) employs rotatable antennas (RAs) and the IRS can adjus…
Joint Antenna Rotation and IRS Beamforming for Multi-User Uplink Communications
Guoying Zhang, Qingqing Wu, Ziyuan Zheng +4
Rotatable antenna (RA) enhances wireless coverage through directional gain steering, yet suffers from performance degradation under physical blockages. Intelligent reflecting surfa…
Wireless Communication with Cross-Linked Rotatable Antenna Array: Architecture Design and Rotation Optimization
Ailing Zheng, Qingqing Wu, Ziyuan Zheng +5
Rotatable antenna (RA) technology can harness additional spatial degrees of freedom by enabling the dynamic three-dimensional orientation control of each antenna. Unfortunately, th…
