Understanding performance of Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS)

Use of milimeter wave frequency band (mmWave, from 30 to 300 GHz) is one main technological novelties of 5G and 6G mobile data communications. Exploitation of mmWave spectrum enables substantially larger bandwidth and datarates, but such high-frequency bands have a…
