Abstract
In this letter, an error is identified in Proposition 3 presented in Björnson et al. (2020) which includes an erroneous expression to compute the optimal number of reflecting elements that minimizes the total power consumption and maximizes the energy efficiency in intelligent reflecting surface (IRS)-supported transmission. The correct version of this expression and a few comments are provided in this letter, and simulation results are also presented to support this claim.
期刊介绍:
IEEE Wireless Communications Letters publishes short papers in a rapid publication cycle on advances in the state-of-the-art of wireless communications. 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 wireless communication systems.
