Abstract:
The ultra-reliable and low-latency communication (URLLC) systems are expected to support the stringent quality of service (QoS) demands in the Internet of Things (IoT) networks. In order to support the strict latency and reliability constraints, it is preferable to deploy a reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) in the URLLC systems to improve the link quality. In this paper, we focus on the uplink of an RIS-assisted URLLC system, and we propose to minimize the transmission latency under the reliability constraints. To solve the non-convex problem, a low-complexity algorithm is proposed by using the Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) technique. The RIS phase shifts optimization, which is typically non-convex, is efficiently solved by formulating as a Quadratically Constrained Quadratic Programming (QCQP) problem. Simulation results verify that our proposed ADMM-based method is able to achieve better performance than the conventional semi-definite relaxation (SDR)-based method with lower computational complexity. Our proposed RIS-assisted URLLC system is able to significantly reduce the transmission latency, which highlights the great potential in deploying RIS in the IoT networks with strict reliability requirements.

Types of Errors: Detection and Minimization
Absolute error in a measurement is the numerical difference from the true or central value. Relative error is the ratio between absolute error and the true or central value, expressed as a percentage.
Errors can be classified by source, magnitude, and sign. There are three types of errors: systematic, random, and gross.
Systematic or...

In a radial system with a fault downstream of the third breaker, ideally, only the third breaker will open, isolating the fault and interrupting the load connected beyond it. The second breaker has a longer delay setting,...
Routh-Hurwitz Criterion II
The first scenario occurs when a singular zero appears in the first column of the Routh table. This situation creates a division by zero issues. To resolve this, a small positive or negative number, denoted as epsilon (∈), is substituted for the zero. The stability analysis proceeds by assuming a sign for ∈. If ∈ is positive, any sign change in the first...
