Channel Estimation for RIS-assisted Millimeter-wave MIMO Systems
Channel estimation in reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) assisted multiple input multiple output (MIMO) communication systems is challenging as pilots cannot be decoded at or transmitted from a RIS with only passive elements. We assume an angular model for the line-of-sight channel between the user equipment (UE) and the RIS and between the RIS and the base station (BS) with no direct path between the UE and BS. In this letter, assuming that we can compute the RIS-BS channel (up to a complex path gain) from their known locations, we first discuss the ambiguity involved in estimating the UE-RIS channel. We propose a multiple channel sounding procedure in which we observe the channel through different RIS phase shifts and present an algorithm for channel estimation to resolve this ambiguity. Through simulations, we show that the proposed method is comparable to an oracle estimator, which perfectly knows the BS, UE, and RIS locations.
