In this letter, we consider an intelligent reflecting surface (IRS)-aided wireless relaying system, where a decode-and-forward relay (R) is employed to forward data from a source (S) to a destination (D), aided by M passive reflecting elements. We consider two practical IRS deployment strategies, namely, single-IRS deployment where all reflecting elements are mounted on one single IRS that is deployed near S, R, or D, and multi-IRS deployment where the reflecting elements are allocated over three separate IRSs which are deployed near S, R, and D, respectively. Under the line-of-sight (LoS) channel model, we characterize the capacity scaling orders with respect to an increasing M for the IRS-aided relay system with different IRS deployment strategies. For single-IRS deployment, we show that deploying the IRS near R achieves the highest capacity as compared to that near S or D. While for multi-IRS deployment, we propose a practical cooperative IRS passive beamforming design which is analytically shown to achieve a larger capacity scaling order than the optimal single-IRS deployment (i.e., near R) when M is sufficiently large. Numerical examples are provided, which validate our theoretical results.

Intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) is a new promising technology that is able to manipulate the wireless propagation channel via smart and controllable signal reflection. In this paper, we investigate the capacity region of a multiple access channe
l (MAC) with two users sending independent messages to an access point (AP), aided by $M$ IRS reflecting elements. We consider two practical IRS deployment strategies that lead to different user-AP effective channels, namely, the distributed deployment where the $M$ reflecting elements form two IRSs, each deployed in the vicinity of one user, versus the centralized deployment where all the $M$ reflecting elements are deployed in the vicinity of the AP. For the distributed deployment, we derive the capacity region in closed-form; while for the centralized deployment, we derive a capacity region outer bound and propose an efficient rate-profile based method to characterize an achievable rate region (or capacity region inner bound). Furthermore, we compare the capacity regions of the two cases and draw useful insights into the optimal deployment of IRS in practical systems.

work with one access point (AP) aided by $M$ IRS elements for enhancing the user-AP channels, where the IRS incurs negligible delay, thus the user-AP channels via the IRS follow the classic discrete memoryless channel model. In particular, we consider two practical IRS deployment strategies that lead to different effective channels between the users and AP, namely, the distributed deployment where the $M$ elements form two IRSs, each deployed in the vicinity of one user, versus the centralized deployment where all the $M$ elements are deployed in the vicinity of the AP. First, we consider the uplink multiple-access channel (MAC) and derive the capacity/achievable rate regions for both deployment strategies under different multiple access schemes. It is shown that the centralized deployment generally outperforms the distributed deployment under symmetric channel setups in terms of achievable user rates. Next, we extend the results to the downlink broadcast channel (BC) by leveraging the celebrated uplink-downlink (or MAC-BC) duality framework, and show that the superior rate performance of centralized over distributed deployment also holds. Numerical results are presented that validate our analysis, and reveal new and useful insights for optimal IRS deployment in wireless networks.
Intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) is a promising technology to support high performance wireless communication. By adaptively configuring the reflection amplitude and/or phase of each passive reflecting element on it, the IRS can reshape the elect
romagnetic environment in favour of signal transmission. This letter advances the existing research by proposing and analyzing a double-IRS aided wireless communication system. Under the reasonable assumption that the reflection channel from IRS 1 to IRS 2 is of rank 1 (e.g., line-of-sight channel), we propose a joint passive beamforming design for the two IRSs. Based on this, we show that deploying two cooperative IRSs with in total K elements can yield a power gain of order O(K^4), which greatly outperforms the case of deploying one traditional IRS with a power gain of order O(K^2). Our simulation results validate that the performance of deploying two cooperative IRSs is significantly better than that of deploying one IRS given a sufficient total number of IRS elements. We also extend our line-of-sight channel model to show how different channel models affect the performance of the double-IRS aided wireless communication system.
This work examines the performance gain achieved by deploying an intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) in covert communications. To this end, we formulate the joint design of the transmit power and the IRS reflection coefficients by taking into accoun
t the communication covertness for the cases with global channel state information (CSI) and without a wardens instantaneous CSI. For the case of global CSI, we first prove that perfect covertness is achievable with the aid of the IRS even for a single-antenna transmitter, which is impossible without an IRS. Then, we develop a penalty successive convex approximation (PSCA) algorithm to tackle the design problem. Considering the high complexity of the PSCA algorithm, we further propose a low-complexity two-stage algorithm, where analytical expressions for the transmit power and the IRSs reflection coefficients are derived. For the case without the wardens instantaneous CSI, we first derive the covertness constraint analytically facilitating the optimal phase shift design. Then, we consider three hardware-related constraints on the IRSs reflection amplitudes and determine their optimal designs together with the optimal transmit power. Our examination shows that significant performance gain can be achieved by deploying an IRS into covert communications.
Intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) is a promising technology to extend the wireless signal coverage and support the high performance communication. By intelligently adjusting the reflection coefficients of a large number of passive reflecting eleme
nts, the IRS can modify the wireless propagation environment in favour of signal transmission. Different from most of the prior works which did not consider any cooperation between IRSs, in this work we propose and study a cooperative double-IRS aided multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication system under the line-of-sight (LoS) propagation channels. We investigate the capacity maximization problem by jointly optimizing the transmit covariance matrix and the passive beamforming matrices of the two cooperative IRSs. Although the above problem is non-convex and difficult to solve, we transform and simplify the original problem by exploiting a tractable characterization of the LoS channels. Then we develop a novel low-complexity algorithm whose complexity is independent of the number of IRS elements. Moreover, we analyze the capacity scaling orders of the double-IRS aided MIMO system with respect to an asymptotically large number of IRS elements or transmit power, which significantly outperform those of the conventional single-IRS aided MIMO system, thanks to the cooperative passive beamforming gain brought by the double-reflection link and the spatial multiplexing gain harvested from the two single-reflection links. Extensive numerical results are provided to show that by exploiting the LoS channel properties, our proposed algorithm can achieve a desirable performance with low computational time. Also, our capacity scaling analysis is validated, and the double-IRS system is shown to achieve a much higher rate than its single-IRS counterpart as long as the number of IRS elements or the transmit power is not small.
