Active RIS-Assisted mmWave Indoor Signal Enhancement Based on Transparent RIS
Due to the serious path loss of millimeter-wave (mmWave), the signal sent by the base station is seriously attenuated when it reaches the indoors. Recent studies have proposed a glass-based metasurface that can enhance mmWave indoor signals. The transparent reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) focuses on the mmWave signal to a specific location indoors. In this paper, a novel RIS-assisted mmWave indoor enhancement scheme is proposed, in which a transparent RIS is deployed on the glass to enhance mmWave indoor signals, and three assisted transmission scenarios, namely passive RIS (PRIS), active RIS (ARIS), and a novel hybrid RIS (HRIS) are proposed. This paper aims to maximize the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the received signal for the three assisted transmission scenarios. The closed-form solution to the maximum SNR is presented in the PRIS and the ARIS-assisted transmission scenarios. Meanwhile, the closed-form solution to the maximum SNR for the HRIS-assisted transmission scenario is presented for given active unit cells. In addition, the performance of the proposed scheme is analyzed under three assisted transmission scenarios. The results indicate that under a specific RIS power budget, the ARIS-assisted transmission scenario achieves the highest data rate and energy efficiency. Also, it requires very few unit cells, thus dramatically reducing the size of the metasurface.
