Aiming at the limited battery capacity of a large number of widely deployed low-power smart devices in the Internet-of-things (IoT), this paper proposes a novel intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) empowered unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) network framework, in which IRS is used to reconstruct the wireless channel to enhance the energy transmission efficiency and coverage of the UAV SWIPT networks. In this paper, we formulate an achievable sum-rate maximization problem by jointly optimizing UAV trajectory, UAV transmission power allocation, power splitting (PS) ratio and IRS reflection coefficient under a non-linear energy harvesting model. Due to the coupling of optimization variables, this problem is a complex non-convex optimization problem, and it is challenging to solve it directly. We first transform the problem, and then apply the alternating optimization (AO) algorithm framework to divide the transformed problem into four blocks to solve it. Specifically, by applying successive convex approximation (SCA) and difference-convex (DC) programming, UAV trajectory, UAV transmission power allocation, PS ratio and IRS reflection coefficient are alternately optimized when the other three are given until convergence is achieved. Numerical simulation results verify the effectiveness of our proposed algorithm compared to other algorithms.

Intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) enhanced multi-unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) networks are investigated. A new transmission framework is proposed, where multiple UAV-mounted base stations employ NOMA to serve multiple groups of ground users with the aid of an IRS. The three-dimensional (3D) placement and transmit power of UAVs, the reflection matrix of the IRS, and the NOMA decoding orders among users are jointly optimized for maximization of the sum rate of considered networks. To tackle the formulated mixed-integer non-convex optimization problem with coupled variables, a block coordinate descent (BCD)-based iterative algorithm is developed. Specifically, the original problem is decomposed into three subproblems, which are alternatingly solved by exploiting the penalty method and the successive convex approximation technique. The proposed BCD-based algorithm is demonstrated to be able to obtain a stationary point of the original problem with polynomial time complexity. Numerical results show that: 1) the proposed NOMA-IRS scheme for multi-UAV networks achieves a higher sum rate compared to the benchmark schemes, i.e., orthogonal multiple access (OMA)-IRS and NOMA without IRS; 2) the use of IRS is capable of providing performance gain for multi-UAV networks by both enhancing channel qualities of UAVs to their served users and mitigating the inter-UAV interference; and 3) optimizing the UAV placement can make the sum rate gain brought by NOMA more distinct due to the flexible decoding order design.

This paper proposes a novel framework of resource allocation in intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) aided multi-cell non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) networks, where a sum-rate maximization problem is formulated. To address this challenging mix ed-integer non-linear problem, we decompose it into an optimization problem (P1) with continuous variables and a matching problem (P2) with integer variables. For the non-convex optimization problem (P1), iterative algorithms are proposed for allocating transmit power, designing reflection matrix, and determining decoding order by invoking relaxation methods such as convex upper bound substitution, successive convex approximation and semidefinite relaxation. For the combinational problem (P2), swap matching-based algorithms are proposed to achieve a two-sided exchange-stable state among users, BSs and subchannels. Numerical results are provided for demonstrating that the sum-rate of the NOMA networks is capable of being enhanced with the aid of the IRS.

In this letter, we study the secure communication problem in the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) enabled networks aided by an intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) from the physical-layer security perspective. Specifically, the IRS is deployed to assi st the wireless transmission from the UAV to the ground user in the presence of an eavesdropper. The objective of this work is to maximize the secrecy rate by jointly optimizing the phase shifts at the IRS as well as the transmit power and location of the UAV. However, the formulated problem is difficult to solve directly due to the non-linear and non-convex objective function and constraints. By invoking fractional programming and successive convex approximation techniques, the original problem is decomposed into three subproblems, which are then transformed into convex ones. Next, a low-complexity alternating algorithm is proposed to solve the challenging non-convex problem effectively, where the closed-form expressions for transmit power and phase shifts are obtained at each iteration. Simulations results demonstrate that the designed algorithm for IRS-aided UAV communications can achieve higher secrecy rate than benchmarks.

This paper investigates the model aggregation process in an over-the-air federated learning (AirFL) system, where an intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) is deployed to assist the transmission from users to the base station (BS). With the purpose of overcoming the absence of the security examination against malicious individuals, successive interference cancellation (SIC) is adopted as a basis to support analyzing statistic characteristics of model parameters from devices. The objective of this paper is to minimize the mean-square-error by jointly optimizing the receive beamforming vector at the BS, transmit power allocation at users, and phase shift matrix of the IRS, subject to the transmit power constraint for devices, unit-modulus constraint for reflecting elements, SIC decoding order constraint and quality-of-service constraint. To address this complicated problem, alternating optimization is employed to decompose it into three subproblems, where the optimal receive beamforming vector is obtained by solving the first subproblem with the Lagrange dual method. Then, the convex relaxation method is applied to the transmit power allocation subproblem to find a suboptimal solution. Eventually, the phase shift matrix subproblem is addressed by invoking the semidefinite relaxation. Simulation results validate the availability of IRS and the effectiveness of the proposed scheme in improving federated learning performance.

Intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) is deemed as a promising and revolutionizing technology for future wireless communication systems owing to its capability to intelligently change the propagation environment and introduce a new dimension into wire less communication optimization. Most existing studies on IRS are based on an ideal reflection model. However, it is difficult to implement an IRS which can simultaneously realize any adjustable phase shift for the signals with different frequencies. Therefore, the practical phase shift model, which can describe the difference of IRS phase shift responses for the signals with different frequencies, should be utilized in the IRS optimization for wideband and multi-band systems. In this paper, we consider an IRS-assisted multi-cell multi-band system, in which different base stations (BSs) operate at different frequency bands. We aim to jointly design the transmit beamforming of BSs and the reflection beamforming of the IRS to minimize the total transmit power subject to signal to interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) constraints of individual user and the practical IRS reflection model. With the aid of the practical phase shift model, the influence between the signals with different frequencies is taken into account during the design of IRS. Simulation results illustrate the importance of considering the practical communication scenario on the IRS designs and validate the effectiveness of our proposed algorithm.
