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.

This paper investigates the security enhancement of an intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) assisted non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) network, where a distributed IRS enabled NOMA transmission framework is proposed to serve users securely in the presence of a passive eavesdropper. Considering that eavesdroppers instantaneous channel state information (CSI) is challenging to acquire in practice, we utilize secrecy outage probability (SOP) as the security metric. A problem of maximizing the minimum secrecy rate among users, subject to the successive interference cancellation (SIC) decoding constraints and SOP constraints, by jointly optimizing transmit beamforming at the BS and phase shifts of IRSs, is formulated. For special case with a single-antenna BS, we derive the exact closed-form SOP expressions and propose a novel ring-penalty based successive convex approximation (SCA) algorithm to design power allocation and phase shifts jointly. While for the more general and challenging case with a multi-antenna BS, we adopt the Bernstein-type inequality to approximate the SOP constraints by a deterministic convex form. To proceed, an efficient alternating optimization (AO) algorithm is developed to solve the considered problem. Numerical results validate the advantages of the proposed algorithms over the baseline schemes. Particularly, two interesting phenomena on distributed IRS deployment are revealed: 1) the secrecy rate peak is achieved only when distributed IRSs share the reflecting elements equally; and 2) the distributed IRS deployment does not always outperform the centralized IRS deployment, due to the tradeoff between the number of IRSs and the reflecting elements equipped at each IRS.
Federated edge learning (FEEL) has emerged as a revolutionary paradigm to develop AI services at the edge of 6G wireless networks as it supports collaborative model training at a massive number of mobile devices. However, model communication over wir eless channels, especially in uplink model uploading of FEEL, has been widely recognized as a bottleneck that critically limits the efficiency of FEEL. Although over-the-air computation can alleviate the excessive cost of radio resources in FEEL model uploading, practical implementations of over-the-air FEEL still suffer from several challenges, including strong straggler issues, large communication overheads, and potential privacy leakage. In this article, we study these challenges in over-the-air FEEL and leverage reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS), a key enabler of future wireless systems, to address these challenges. We study the state-of-the-art solutions on RIS-empowered FEEL and explore the promising research opportunities for adopting RIS to enhance FEEL performance.
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) is an emerging technology that is able to reconfigure the wireless channel via tunable passive signal reflection and thereby enhance the spectral and energy efficiency of wireless networks cost-effectively. In thi s paper, we study an IRS-aided multiuser multiple-input single-output (MISO) wireless system and adopt the two-timescale (TTS) transmission to reduce the signal processing complexity and channel training overhead as compared to the existing schemes based on the instantaneous channel state information (I-CSI), and at the same time, exploit the multiuser channel diversity in transmission scheduling. Specifically, the long-term passive beamforming is designed based on the statistical CSI (S-CSI) of all links, while the short-term active beamforming is designed to cater to the I-CSI of all users reconfigured channels with optimized IRS phase shifts. We aim to minimize the average transmit power at the access point (AP), subject to the users individual quality of service (QoS) constraints. The formulated stochastic optimization problem is non-convex and difficult to solve since the long-term and short-term design variables are complicatedly coupled in the QoS constraints. To tackle this problem, we propose an efficient algorithm, called the primal-dual decomposition based TTS joint active and passive beamforming (PDD-TJAPB), where the original problem is decomposed into a long-term problem and a family of short-term problems, and the deep unfolding technique is employed to extract gradient information from the short-term problems to construct a convex surrogate problem for the long-term problem. The proposed algorithm is proved to converge to a stationary solution of the original problem almost surely. Simulation results are presented which demonstrate the advantages and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm as compared to benchmark schemes.

In intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) aided wireless communication systems, channel state information (CSI) is crucial to achieve its promising passive beamforming gains. However, CSI errors are inevitable in practice and generally correlated over the IRS reflecting elements due to the limited training with discrete phase shifts, which degrade the data transmission rate and reliability. In this paper, we focus on investigating the effect of CSI errors to the outage performance in an IRS-aided multiuser downlink communication system. Specifically, we aim to jointly optimize the active transmit precoding vectors at the access point (AP) and passive discrete phase shifts at the IRS to minimize the APs transmit power, subject to the constraints on the maximum CSI-error induced outage probability for the users. First, we consider the single-user case and derive the users outage probability in terms of the mean signal power (MSP) and variance of the received signal at the user. Since there is a trade-off in tuning these two parameters to minimize the outage probability, we propose to maximize their weighted sum with the optimal weight found by one-dimensional search. Then, for the general multiuser case, since the users outage probabilities are difficult to obtain in closed-form due to the inter-user interference, we propose a novel constrained stochastic successive convex approximation (CSSCA) algorithm, which replaces the non-convex outage probability constraints with properly designed convex surrogate approximations. Simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed robust beamfoming algorithms and show their significant performance improvement over various benchmark schemes.
