Joint Resource Optimization for IRS-Assisted Mmwave MIMO Under QoS Constraints

This paper focuses on the non-convex joint optimization with a dynamic resource of multi-user for an intelligent reflecting surface-enhanced mmWave system, where all users have individual rates or quality of service requirements. Firstly, the objective function of the above non-linear problem is converted into a quadratic programming form under the quality of service constraints. Further, a multi-blocks alternating optimization framework with dynamic power allocation is proposed to obtain the maximum sum-rate, where the relaxed ADMM algorithm is adopted to tackle the optimal full-digital precoder and the corresponding passive reflecting matrix is obtained by the gradient-projection. The numerical results verify that beam optimization should be emphasized in high SNR, but joint dynamic resource allocation can further improve system performance even if the hardware dimensions reaches the limit.
