Abstract

Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs) have tremendous potential to boost communication performance, especially when the line-of-sight (LOS) path between the user equipment (UE) and base station (BS) is blocked. To control the RIS, channel state information (CSI) is needed, which entails significant pilot overhead. To reduce this overhead and the need for frequent RIS reconfiguration, we propose a novel framework for integrated localization and communications, where RIS configurations are fixed during location coherence intervals, while BS precoders are optimized every channel coherence interval. This framework leverages accurate location information obtained with the aid of several RISs as well as novel RIS optimization and channel estimation methods. Performance in terms of localization accuracy, channel estimation error, and achievable rate demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
