Abstract
In this paper, we investigate the uplink achievable spectral efficiency (SE) for an intelligent reflecting surface (IRS)-assisted millimeter wave (mmWave) multiple-input single-output (MISO) system, where all antennas at the BS are equipped with cheaper low-resolution analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and an IRS adjusts its reflecting phase shifts to facilitate information transfer. To maximize the uplink achievable SE, we design the phase shift of each reflecting element and obtained the optimal phase shift matrix in the terms of the statistical channel state information (CSI). An theoretical expression of the uplink achievable SE of massive MISO system is obtained with the zero forcing (ZF) detector is derived. Based on this derived theoretical result, the behaviors of the achievable SE with respect to several physical parameters are revealed that includes the number of antennas, the transmit power, the number of reflecting elements, and the quantization bits of the low-resolution ADCs. Finally, we provide the numerical results by Monte Carlo simulation to verify that our theoretical analysis is accurate. Results show that the achievable SE increases with the number of antennas, the number of quantization bits of the ADC and the reflecting elements of the IRS, but tends to a saturation rate. In addition, we find that the SE inevitably suffers a certain loss due to the phase shift noise is unavoidable and the quantization accuracy of IRS, which can be compensated by increasing the transmit power and the number of reflecting elements.
