RIS-Assisted Joint Differential Polarization and Phase Modulation for Non-Coherent Receivers
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This letter introduces a reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS)-assisted modulation scheme tailored for non-coherent receivers. Employing a RIS of dual-polarized elements, we manipulate the polarization state of the reflected signals to enable a differential polarization shift keying modulation scheme while simultaneously beamforming the reflected signal towards the receiver. Subsequently, an additional differential phase shift keying (DPSK) modulation layer is superimposed under two distinct deployments, where either the source or the RIS performs the DPSK modulation. Furthermore, the analytical performance is investigated, and a comparison with benchmark schemes is evaluated.
