Semi-Blind Channel Estimation for Intelligent Reflecting Surfaces in Massive MIMO Systems

Intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) is considered as a promising technology for enhancing the transmission rate in cellular networks. Such improvement is attributed to considering a large IRS with high number of passive reflecting elements, optimized to properly focus the incident beams towards the...
