Intelligent Reflecting Surfaces (IRS) for 6G Wireless Communication Systems

EasyChair Preprint 14086

Abstract

This research delves into the application of Intelligent Reflecting Surfaces (IRS) technology to enhance the performance and capacity of future 6G wireless communication systems. IRS, consisting of programmable metasurfaces, can dynamically manipulate electromagnetic waves to improve signal propagation and mitigate interference. The study focuses on the design, implementation, and optimization of IRS-assisted communication systems. By exploring advanced algorithms for IRS configuration and control, the research aims to maximize signal strength, coverage, and spectral efficiency. Additionally, it addresses practical challenges such as energy efficiency, hardware limitations, and integration with existing network architectures. The findings are expected to pave the way for the deployment of highly efficient, flexible, and resilient 6G networks, capable of supporting a wide range of applications and services in the next-generation wireless landscape.
