Abstract: In this paper, an energy efficiency (EE)–spectral efficiency (SE) trade-off scheme is investigated for the distributed reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS)-assisted backscatter vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communication system. Firstly, a multi-objective optimization framework balancing EE and SE is established using the linear weighting method, and the quadratic transformation is utilized to recast the optimization problem as a strictly convex problem. Secondly, an alternating optimization (AO) approach is applied to partition the original problem into two independent subproblems of the BS and RIS beamforming, which are, respectively, designed by the weighted minimization mean-square error (WMMSE) and the Riemannian conjugate gradient (RCG) algorithms. Finally, according to the trade-off factor, the power reflection coefficients of backscatter devices (BDs) are dynamically optimized with the BS beamforming vectors and RIS phase shift matrices, considering their activation requirements and the vehicle minimum quality of service (QoS). The simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm in simultaneously improving SE and the EE in practical V2I applications through rational optimization of the BD power reflection coefficient.
