Reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS): Eigenvalue Decomposition-Based Separate Channel Estimation

Signal Processing 2021-11-04 v2

Abstract

Reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) has recently drawn significant attention in wireless communication technologies. However, identifying, modeling, and estimating the RIS channel in multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems are considered challenging in recent studies. In this paper, a disassembled channel estimation framework for the RIS-MIMO system is proposed based on the eigenvalue decomposition (EVD) concept to separate the cascaded channel links and estimate each link separately. This estimation is based on modeling the RIS-MIMO channel as a keyhole MIMO system model. Numerical results show that the proposed estimation method has a low estimation time overhead while providing less estimation error.
