Summary: This paper investigates a cooperative double-IRS aided MIMO communication system under the LoS propagation channels. By jointly optimizing the transmit covariance matrix and the passive beamforming matrices of the two cooperative IRSs, the capacity maximization problem is studied. A low-complexity algorithm is developed by exploiting the tractable characterization of the LoS channels. The capacity scaling analysis shows that the double-IRS system outperforms the conventional single-IRS system thanks to the cooperative power gain and the spatial multiplexing gain.

Summary: User profiling allows sellers to identify users' willingness to pay and enable personalized pricing, but analyzing the Perfect Bayesian Equilibrium in this game is challenging due to the randomness in user profiling and the coupling among users' activity levels and seller's pricing decisions. Despite the difficulty, the study demonstrates that users' activity levels do not monotonically decrease as the profiling technology improves, as sellers strategically choose high uniform prices to stimulate increased social activities and profile more users.
