RIS Operation Tutorial
To Fill In
This Tutorial assumes that you have followed the basic CorteXlab operation tutorials (at least GNU Radio benchmark example, and Eyes and ears inside CorteXlab, but GNU Radio benchmark, interactive command execution and GNU Radio benchmark example with docker are recommended)
Here, we will go through an experiment using and operating the RIS installed in the CorteXlab room, that should showcase all that is necessary to drive it for your own experiments.
The RIS
The RIS currently installed in SLICES/CorteXlab is a prototype of a FR1 RIS by Greenerwave.
It is in the form of a flat square 40cm on a side and designed to operate on a wide 800MHz band centered around 3.7 GHz with a 120° field of view on both azimuth and elevation.
It contains 128 reflective elements, with one bit control (on/off), arranged in pairs in a 8×8 square. One element of the pair handling vertical polarisation, the other horizontal.
You can find more technical information about it and request their specsheet on their website.
The room setup
Please check with the CorteXlab Team for changes to that setup (and to check if it has changed)
