Abstract

The deployment of cooperative communication inside a cell-Free mMIMO system can improve both the spectral efficiency SE performance as well as the energy efficiency EE performance. This increase is due to the increase in the signal to interference plus noise ratio SINR. In fact, the SINR can be greatly improved when the cognitive radio theory is applied due to its capability of interference mitigation. In this manuscript, the cognitive intelligent reflecting surfaces IRSs are distributed inside a cell-Free mMIMO system in order to improve the SE as well as the EE performance. Moreover, the cognitive radio can raise each user SINR. In this manuscript, the authors try to carry out the suitable mathematical model for the fore-mentioned system. Moreover, the system will be simulated. Subsequently, the simulation results will be explained. It is obvious that the implantation of cognitive IRSs inside, cell-Free mMIMO systems can greatly increase the system performance.
