Power-Efficient Full-Duplex Satellite Communications Aided by Movable Antennas (2409.06502v2)

Abstract: This letter investigates a movable antenna (MA)-aided full-duplex (FD) satellite communication system, where the satellite, equipped with both transmit and receive MAs, serves multiple uplink (UL) and downlink (DL) user terminals (UTs) in FD mode. Specifically, we formulate a multiobjective optimization problem to minimize the UL and DL transmit powers under imperfect channel state information (CSI). To jointly optimize the MA positions and transmit powers, we propose a two-loop particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm based on a multiobjective optimization framework. Simulation results show that flexible adjustments of MA positions can effectively reduce the total UL and DL transmit powers, while also alleviating the burden on self-interference (SI) cancellation modules.
