Abstract
Symbiotic radio (SR) and reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) can serve as a complementary technique for each other regarding spectrum efficiency and energy efficiency (EE) improvements. In this paper, we investigate a RIS-aided multiple-input single-output SR system with multiple backscatter devices (BDs). In particular, an EE-based maximization resource allocation problem is formulated by jointly optimizing the passive beamforming vector of the RIS, the active beamforming vector of the primary transmitter (PT), and the reflection coefficient of each BD under multiple constraints, including the minimum rate of each user, the maximum transmit power of the PT, and the minimum harvested energy of each BD. To solve the non-convex problem, a Dinkelbach-based block coordinate descent algorithm is developed to obtain the sub-optimal solution. Numerical results verify that the proposed algorithm achieves two times more than the traditional algorithms in terms of system EE.
