Abstract | This paper presents a general system framework which lays the foundation for Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface (RIS)-enhanced broadcast communications in Industrial Internet of Things (IIoTs). In our system model, we consider multiple sensor clusters co-existing in a smart factory where the direct links between these clusters and a central base station (BS) is blocked completely. In this context, an RIS is utilized to reflect signals broadcast from BS toward cluster heads (CHs) which act as a representative of clusters, where BS only has access to the statistical distribution of the channel state information (CSI). An analytical upper bound of the total ergodic spectral efficiency and an approximation of outage probability are derived. Based on these analytical results, two algorithms are introduced to control the phase shifts at RIS, which are the Riemannian conjugate gradient (RCG) method and the deep neural network (DNN) method. While the RCG algorithm operates based on the conventional iterative method, the DNN technique relies on unsupervised deep learning. Our numerical results show that the both algorithms achieve satisfactory performance based on only statistical CSI. In addition, compared to the RCG scheme, using deep learning reduces the computational latency by more than 10 times with an almost identical total ergodic spectral efficiency achieved. These numerical results reveal that while using conventional RCG method may provide unsatisfactory latency, DNN technique shows much promise for enabling RIS in ultra reliable and low latency communications (URLLC) in the context of IIoTs. |
