This paper considers a multi-antenna multicast system with programmable metasurface (PMS) based transmitter. Taking into account of the finite-resolution phase shifts of PMSs, a novel beam training approach is proposed, which achieves comparable performance as the exhaustive beam searching method but with much lower time overhead. Then, a closed-form expression for the achievable multicast rate is presented, which is valid for arbitrary system configurations. In addition, for certain asymptotic scenario, simple approximated expressions for the multicase rate are derived. Closed-form solutions are obtained for the optimal power allocation scheme, and it is shown that equal power allocation is optimal when the pilot power or the number of reflecting elements is sufficiently large. However, it is desirable to allocate more power to weaker users when there are a large number of RF chains. The analytical findings indicate that, with large pilot power, the multicast rate is determined by the weakest user. Also, increasing the number of radio frequency (RF) chains or reflecting elements can significantly improve the multicast rate, and as the phase shift number becomes larger, the multicast rate improves first and gradually converges to a limit. Moreover, increasing the number of users would significantly degrade the multicast rate, but this rate loss can be compensated by implementing a large number of reflecting elements.

In this paper, we investigate the energy-efficient hybrid precoding design for integrated multicast-unicast millimeter wave (mmWave) system, where the simultaneous wireless information and power transform is considered at receivers. We adopt two sparse radio frequency chain antenna structures at the base station (BS), i.e., fully-connected and subarray structures, and design the codebook-based analog precoding according to the different structures. Then, we formulate a joint digital multicast, unicast precoding and power splitting ratio optimization problem to maximize the energy efficiency of the system, while the maximum transmit power at the BS and minimum harvested energy at receivers are considered. Due to its difficulty to directly solve the formulated problem, we equivalently transform the fractional objective function into a subtractive form one and propose a two-loop iterative algorithm to solve it. For the outer loop, the classic Bi-section iterative algorithm is applied. For the inner loop, we transform the formulated problem into a convex one by successive convex approximation techniques and propose an iterative algorithm to solve it. Meanwhile, to reduce the complexity of the inner loop, we develop a zero forcing (ZF) technique-based low complexity iterative algorithm. Specifically, the ZF technique is applied to cancel the inter-unicast interference and the first order Taylor approximation is used for the convexification of the non-convex constraints in the original problem. Finally, simulation results are provided to compare the performance of the proposed algorithms under different schemes.
The recently emerged symbol-level precoding (SLP) technique has been regarded as a promising solution in multi-user wireless communication systems, since it can convert harmful multi-user interference (MUI) into beneficial signals for enhancing system performance. However, the tremendous computational complexity of conventional symbol-level precoding designs severely hinders the practical implementations. In order to tackle this difficulty, we propose a novel deep learning (DL) based approach to efficiently design the symbol-level precoders. Particularly, in this correspondence, we consider a multi-user multi-input single-output (MU-MISO) downlink system. An efficient precoding neural network (EPNN) is introduced to optimize the symbol-level precoders for maximizing the minimum quality-of-service (QoS) of all users under the power constraint. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed EPNN based SLP design can dramatically reduce the computing time at the price of slight performance loss compared with the conventional convex optimization based SLP design.
The performance of short polar codes under successive cancellation (SC) and SC list (SCL) decoding is analyzed for the case where the decoder messages are coarsely quantized. This setting is of particular interest for applications requiring low-complexity energy-efficient transceivers (e.g., internet-of-things or wireless sensor networks). We focus on the extreme case where the decoder messages are quantized with 3 levels. We show how under SCL decoding quantized log-likelihood ratios lead to a large inaccuracy in the calculation of path metrics, resulting in considerable performance losses with respect to an unquantized SCL decoder. We then introduce two novel techniques which improve the performance of SCL decoding with coarse quantization. The first technique consists of a modification of the final decision step of SCL decoding, where the selected codeword is the one maximizing the maximum-likelihood decoding metric within the final list. The second technique relies on statistical knowledge about the reliability of the bit estimates, obtained through a suitably modified density evolution analysis, to improve the list construction phase, yielding a higher probability of having the transmitted codeword in the list. The effectiveness of the two techniques is demonstrated through simulations.
In this paper, we study a class of spatially coupled turbo codes, namely partially information- and partially parity-coupled turbo codes. This class of codes enjoy several advantages such as flexible code rate adjustment by varying the coupling ratio and the encoding and decoding architectures of the underlying component codes can remain unchanged. For this work, we first provide the construction methods for partially coupled turbo codes with coupling memory $m$ and study the corresponding graph models. We then derive the density evolution equations for the corresponding ensembles on the binary erasure channel to precisely compute their iterative decoding thresholds. Rate-compatible designs and their decoding thresholds are also provided, where the coupling and puncturing ratios are jointly optimized to achieve the largest decoding threshold for a given target code rate. Our results show that for a wide range of code rates, the proposed codes attain close-to-capacity performance and the decoding performance improves with increasing the coupling memory. In particular, the proposed partially parity-coupled turbo codes have thresholds within 0.0002 of the BEC capacity for rates ranging from $1/3$ to $9/10$, yielding an attractive way for constructing rate-compatible capacity-approaching channel codes.
Recent considerations for reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs) assume that RISs can convey information by reflection without the need of transmit radio frequency chains, which, however, is a challenging task. In this paper, we propose an RIS-enhanced multiple-input single-output system with reflection pattern modulation, where the RIS can configure its reflection state for boosting the received signal power via passive beamforming and simultaneously conveying its own information via reflection. We formulate an optimization problem to maximize the average received signal power by jointly optimizing the active beamforming at the access point (AP) and passive beamforming at the RIS for the case where the RISs state information is statistically known by the AP, and propose a high-quality suboptimal solution based on the alternating optimization technique. We analyze the asymptotic outage probability of the proposed scheme under Rayleigh fading channels, for which a closed-form expression is derived. The achievable rate of the proposed scheme is also investigated for the case where the transmitted symbol is drawn from a finite constellation. Simulation results validate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme and reveal the effect of various system parameters on the achievable rate performance. It is shown that the proposed scheme outperforms the conventional RIS-assisted system without information transfer in terms of achievable rate performance.
