Rethinking Passive RIS: Finite Blocklength Reliability Analysis Under Thermal Noise
Farjam Karim, Deepak Kumar, Prathapasinghe Dharmawansa +3
Short-packet communication alters the fundamental performance limits of reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS)-assisted systems, making conventional analyses based on the infinit…
Passive RIS Is Not Silent: Revisiting Performance Limits Under Thermal Noise
Farjam Karim, Deepak Kumar, Prathapasinghe Dharmawansa +3
Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs) have emerged as a promising solution for enabling energy-efficient and flexible spectrum usage in wireless communication, particularly in…
Impact of CSIR, SIC, and Hardware Impairments on the Ergodic Rate of Downlink RSMA
Farjam Karim, Deepak Kumar, Prathapasinghe Dharmawansa +3
This work investigates the ergodic rate performance analysis of rate-splitting multiple access (RSMA) in a downlink communication system under practical impairments. Closed-form ex…
Uplink Rate Splitting Multiple Access with Imperfect Channel State Information and Interference Cancellation
Farjam Karim, Nurul Huda Mahmood, Arthur S. de Sena +3
This article investigates the performance of uplink rate splitting multiple access (RSMA) in a two-user scenario, addressing an under-explored domain compared to its downlink count…
End-to-End Waveform and Beamforming Optimization for RF Wireless Power Transfer
Abdul Basit Khattak, Onel L. A. López, Amirhossein Azarbahram +2
Radio frequency (RF) wireless power transfer (WPT) is a key technology for future low-power wireless systems. However, the inherently low end-to-end power transfer efficiency (PTE)…
