Abstract


Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RIS) is a wireless technology that has the potential to improve cellular communication systems significantly. This paper considers enhancing the RIS beamforming in a RIS-aided multiuser multi-input multi-output (MIMO) system to enhance user throughput in cellular networks. The study offers an unsupervised/deep neural network (U/DNN) that simultaneously optimizes the intelligent surface beamforming with less complexity to overcome the non-convex sum-rate problem difficulty. The numerical outcomes comparing the suggested approach to the near-optimal iterative semi-definite programming strategy indicate that the proposed method retains most performance (more than 95% of optimal throughput value when the number of antennas is 4 and RIS’s elements are 30) while drastically reducing system computing complexity.
