[论文解读] STAR-RISs: A Correlated T&R Phase-Shift Model and Practical Phase-Shift Configuration Strategies
本文提出了一种用于无源无损STAR-RIS的关联传输与反射(T&R)时延相移模型,该模型考虑了限制传输与反射信号独立控制的电磁约束。提出了三种实用的相移配置(PSC)策略——PS-PSC、DP-PSC和TR-PSC,并表明DP-PSC策略在STAR-RIS两侧用户上实现了全分集增益,与独立相移模型的性能上限相当,仅存在4 dB的功率损耗。
A correlated transmission and reflection (T&R) phase-shift model is proposed for passive lossless simultaneously transmitting and reflecting reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (STAR-RISs). A STAR-RIS-aided two-user downlink communication system is investigated for both orthogonal multiple access (OMA) and non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA). To evaluate the impact of the correlated T&R phase-shift model on the communication performance, three phase-shift configuration strategies are developed, namely the primary-secondary phase-shift configuration (PS-PSC), the diversity preserving phase-shift configuration (DP-PSC), and the T/R-group phase-shift configuration (TR-PSC) strategies. Furthermore, we derive the outage probabilities for the three proposed phase-shift configuration strategies as well as for those of the random phase-shift configuration and the independent phase-shift model, which constitute performance lower and upper bounds, respectively. Then, the diversity order of each strategy is investigated based on the obtained analytical results. It is shown that the proposed DP-PSC strategy achieves full diversity order simultaneously for users located on both sides of the STAR-RIS. Moreover, power scaling laws are derived for the three proposed strategies and for the random phase-shift configuration. Numerical simulations reveal a performance gain if the users on both sides of the STAR-RIS are served by NOMA instead of OMA. Moreover, it is shown that the proposed DP-PSC strategy yields the same diversity order as achieved by STAR-RISs under the independent phase-shift model and a comparable power scaling law with only 4 dB reduction in received power.

实验结果
研究问题
- RQ1在实际硬件约束下,关联T&R相移模型如何影响STAR-RIS辅助系统的性能?
- RQ2实用的PSC策略能否在STAR-RIS两侧用户上均实现全分集增益?
- RQ3与独立相移模型和随机配置相比,所提PSC策略的功率扩展律如何?

主要发现
- 当直射链路足够强(η ≥ 0.5)时,DP-PSC策略在STAR-RIS两侧用户上均实现了全分集增益(M+1),即使存在直射链路。
- DP-PSC策略的分集增益与独立相移模型相同,证实其在分集增益方面具有最优性。
- DP-PSC策略的功率扩展律为M²,与独立相移模型的性能上限一致。
- 与性能上限相比,DP-PSC策略仅造成4 dB的功率损耗,对应10 log₁₀(4/π²) ≈ -3.9 dB的损耗。
- 数值结果证实,与OMA相比,使用NOMA可获得性能增益,尤其在DP-PSC策略下更为显著。
- 随机PSC策略仅表现出M扩展,当M从15增至30时,功率增益为5 dB,而DP-PSC则达到10 dB。
