The manifold of unitary and symmetric matrices: characterization, Riemannian optimization and application to BD-RIS design

Ignacio Santamaria, Carlos Beltrán, Eduard Jorswieck +2

This paper proposes and analyzes Riemannian optimization algorithms on the manifold of unitary and symmetric matrices, denoted , which naturally models the scattering…

Optimal symmetric low-rank BD-RIS configuration maximizing the determinant of a MIMO link

Ignacio Santamaria, Mohammad Soleymani, Jesus Gutierrez +1

Beyond-diagonal reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (BD-RISs) significantly improve wireless performance by allowing tunable interconnections among elements, but their design in mu…

Riemannian optimization on the manifold of unitary and symmetric matrices with application to BD-RIS-assisted systems

Ignacio Santamaria, Mohammad Soleymani, Eduard Jorswieck +2

In this paper, we rigorously characterize for the first time the manifold of unitary and symmetric matrices, deriving its tangent space and its geodesics. The resulting parameteriz…

Spectral-Energy Efficiency Tradeoff of Nearly-Passive RIS in MIMO URLLC Downlink: Diagonal vs. Beyond Diagonal

Mohammad Soleymani, Alessio Zappone, Eduard Jorswieck +2

This paper investigates the spectral and energy efficiency (EE) tradeoff of nearly-passive (NP), both locally and globally NP (GNP), reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS), consi…

Rate Splitting Multiple Access for RIS-aided URLLC MIMO Broadcast Channels

Mohammad Soleymani, Ignacio Santamaria, Eduard Jorswieck +3

The performance of modern wireless communication systems is typically limited by interference. The impact of interference can be even more severe in ultra-reliable and low-latency…
