Abstract
Orthogonal Time Frequency Space (OTFS) modulation offers a promising solution for Vehicle To Everything (V2X) scenarios. In this letter, we present an algorithm that reduces pilot overhead and improves link reliability, which enhances spectral efficiency in IRS (Intelligent Reflecting Surface)-assisted OTFS systems. The method projects received signals onto orthogonal subspaces and performs channel matching within each subspace to minimize pilot overhead. And we utilize the Grey Wolf Optimization (GWO) Algorithm to calculate the channel matching parameters. Additionally, an adaptive pilot overhead reduction(APOR) scheme is presented to further enhance spectral efficiency. Simulation results verify that the proposed methods significantly improve system reliability and throughput rate.
期刊介绍:
The IEEE Communications Letters publishes short papers in a rapid publication cycle on advances in the state-of-the-art of communication over different media and channels including wire, underground, waveguide, optical fiber, and storage channels. Both theoretical contributions (including new techniques, concepts, and analyses) and practical contributions (including system experiments and prototypes, and new applications) are encouraged. This journal focuses on the physical layer and the link layer of communication systems.
