【 摘 要 】

To fully exploit the additional dimension brought by recon-figurable intelligent surface (RIS), it is recently suggested by information theory that modulating information upon RIS phases is able to send extra information with increased communication rate. In this paper, we propose a novel superimposed RIS-phase modulation (SRPM) scheme to transfer extra messages by superimposing information-bearing phase offsets to conventionally optimized RIS phases. The proposed SRPM is interpreted as a universal framework for RIS phase modulation. Theoretical union bound of the average bit error rate (ABER) of the proposed SRPM is also derived with the maximum likelihood (ML) detection. The diversity order is characterized as 21 for all parameter settings, which is useful for determining the optimal choice of the phase modulation parameters. Furthermore, we discover that doubling the number of either RIS reflecting elements or the transmit antennas is equivalent to a 3 dB increment in the transmit power for SRPM. Numerical results demonstrate the effectiveness of SRPM and reveal that it achieves reliable communication of more bits than existing schemes.
