论文摘要
下一代无线系统将通过陆地,空中,卫星,海上和水下通信系统的无缝集成来将通信和网络的概念提升到另一个层次。可重新配置的智能表面(RIS)是一种创新的技术,具有其奇异的功能,可以加快到处连接的实现。本文由这种创新技术的无与伦比的属性进行了激励,就RIS如何有助于对未来综合陆地/非事物(意图)网络的实现和正常运作的全面讨论进行了全面讨论。作为一个案例研究,我们探讨了RIS的整合到非正交多访问(NOMA)基于卫星通信网络中,并通过数值模拟将RIS纳入RIS所实现的性能增强。本文末尾阐明了该领域未来研究的有希望的指示。
The next generation of wireless systems will take the concept of communications and networking to another level through the seamless integration of terrestrial, aerial, satellite, maritime and underwater communication systems. Reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) is an innovative technology which, with its singular features and functionalities, can expedite the realization of this everywhere connectivity. Motivated by the unparalleled properties of this innovatory technology, this article provides a comprehensive discussion on how RIS can contribute to the actualization and proper functioning of future integrated terrestrial/non-terrestrial (INTENT) networks. As a case study, we explore the integration of RIS into non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA)-based satellite communication networks and demonstrate the performance enhancement achieved by the inclusion of RIS via numerical simulations. Promising directions for future research in this area are set forth at the end of this article.
