Abstract To achieve a green and sustainable wireless communication network, the reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) technology has emerged as an emerging technology. The RIS-assisted mmWave massive MIMO vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications can support enhanced V2X applications for connected and automated vehicles. The design of RIS-assisted mmWave V2X communications is though not exempt of challenges as a result of fast time-varying propagation and highly dynamic vehicular networks and topologies. To address some of these challenges, we propose an attention-deep reinforcement learning jointly beamforming based on tensor decomposition for RIS-assisted mmWave massive MIMO system to improving the safety and traffic efficiency of cooperative automated driving. The received signal of the vehicle is decomposed into four-dimensional tensors and study the channel, frequency and time attention (CFTA) algorithm using the low order tensor characteristics of mmWave channels. This algorithm can extract the frequency and time characteristics of the channel, and obtain the millimeter wave characteristic channel between the corresponding base station (BS) and the vehicles. The problem of jointly optimization of beamforming matrix at the BS and the phase shift matrix on the RIS is constructed and solved using deep reinforcement learning (DRL). Unlike traditional alternating optimization methods, the integration of DRL techniques into the optimal design of the system enables the observation of immediate rewards, learning from the environment and improving it to obtain optimal solutions to high-dimensional jointly beamforming optimization problems ultimately. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm has meaningful performance compared with other methods.
