Introduction
• The arrival of 5G has led to new vision in the field of mobile
communications, but meeting the application requirements
such as ultra reliability, low latency, massive connectivity…etc
has been the major issue.
• Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces is found to be one of the
major solution which effectively control the wavefront
without any need of complex decoding, encoding and other
radio frequency processing ooperations

Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces
• The RISs are reconfigurable sheets of EM material that
intentionally control the propagation in the environment in
order to enhance the signal quality at the receiver.
• The core idea of RISs is the transformation of the
uncontrollable and random wireless propagation environment
into a reconfigurable communication system entity that plays
an active role in transferring information.
• It has been proposed as a novel and cost-effective solution to
achieve high spectral and energy efficiency for wireless
communications via only low-cost reflecting elements
How does RISs work?
• The RISs are made of a large number of low-cost and passive
elements that are capable of modifying the radio waves
impinging upon them in ways that naturally occurring
materials are not capable of.
