Intelligent-Metasurface-Assisted Full-Duplex Wireless Communications
The limited radio-frequency spectrum is a fundamental factor in the design of wireless communication systems. The ever increasing number of wireless devices and systems has led to a crowded spectrum and increased the demand for versatile and multi-functional full-duplex wireless apparatuses. Recently, dynamic and intelligent metasurfaces are explored as a prominent technological solution to the current paradigm of spectrum scarcity by opportunistically sharing the spectrum with various users. In general, intelligent metasurfaces are dynamic, ultra-compact, multi-functional and programmable structures which are capable of both reciprocal and nonreciprocal signal wave transmissions in a full-duplex manner. The controllability and programmability of such metasurfaces are governed through the dc bias and occasionally a radio-frequency (RF) modulation applied to the the active components of the unit cells of the metasurface, e.g., diodes and transistors. This article shows that such intelligent metasurfaces can enhance the performance of wireless communications systems thanks to their unique features such as real-time signal coding, nonreciprocal-beam radiation, nonreciprocal beamsteering amplification, and advanced pattern-coding multiple access communication.
