Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface Enhanced Device-to-Device Communications

Abstract

Reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) technology is a promising method to enhance the device-to-device (D2D) communications. To maximize the sum rate of the cellular and D2D networks, a joint optimization of the position and the phase shift of RIS in D2D communications is considered in this paper. To solve the non-convex sum rate maximum problem, we propose a novel convolutional neural network (CNN) based deep Q-network (DQN) that jointly optimizes the RIS position and its phase shift with lower complexity. Numerical results illustrate that the proposed algorithm can achieve higher sum rate compared to the benchmark algorithms, meanwhile meeting the quality of service (QoS) requirements at D2D receivers and the base station (BS).
