摘要
In this paper, the feasibility of adopting an intelligent reflective surface (IRS) in a cell-free wireless communication system is studied. The received signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for this IRS-enabled cell-free set-up is optimized by adjusting phase-shifts of the passive reflective elements. Then, tight approximations for the probability density function and the cumulative distribution function for this optimal SNR are derived for Rayleigh fading. To investigate the performance of this system model, tight bounds/approximations for the achievable rate and outage probability are derived in closed firm. The impact of discrete phase-shifts is modeled, and the corresponding detrimental effects are investigated by deriving an upper bound for the achievable rate in the presence of phase-shift quantization errors. MonteCarlo simulations are used to validate our statistical characterization of the optimal SNR, and the corresponding analysis is used to investigate the performance gains of the proposed system model. We reveal that IRS-assisted communications can boost the performance of cell-free wireless architectures.
