In this paper, the problem of robust reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) system design under changes in data distributions is investigated. Using the notion of invariant risk minimization (IRM), an invariant causal representation across multiple environments is used such that the predictor is simultaneously optimal for each environment. A neural network-based solution is adopted to seek the predictor and its performance is validated via simulations against an empirical risk minimization-based design. Results show that leveraging invariance yields more robustness against unseen and out-of-distribution testing environments.

It is difficult for free space optical communication to be applied in mobile communication due to the obstruction of obstacles in the environment, which is expected to be solved by reconfigurable intelligent surface technology. The reconfigurable int elligent surface is a new type of digital coding meta-materials, which can reflect, compute and program electromagnetic and optical waves in real time. We purpose a controllable multi-branch wireless optical communication system based on the optical reconfigurable intelligent surface technology. By setting up multiple optical reconfigurable intelligent surface in the environment, multiple artificial channels are built to improve system performance and to reduce the outage probability. Three factors affecting channel coefficients are investigated in this paper, which are beam jitter, jitter of the reconfigurable intelligent surface and the probability of obstruction. Based on the model, we derive the closed-form probability density function of channel coefficients, the asymptotic systems average bit error rate and outage probability for systems with single and multiple branches. It is revealed that the probability density function contains an impulse function, which causes irreducible error rate and outage probability floors. Numerical results indicate that compared with free-space optical communication systems with single direct path, the performance of the multi-branch system is improved and the outage probability is reduced.
Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs), also known as intelligent reflecting surfaces (IRSs), or large intelligent surfaces (LISs), have received significant attention for their potential to enhance the capacity and coverage of wireless networks by smartly reconfiguring the wireless propagation environment. Therefore, RISs are considered a promising technology for the sixth-generation (6G) of communication networks. In this context, we provide a comprehensive overview of the state-of-the-art on RISs, with focus on their operating principles, performance evaluation, beamforming design and resource management, applications of machine learning to RIS-enhanced wireless networks, as well as the integration of RISs with other emerging technologies. We describe the basic principles of RISs both from physics and communications perspectives, based on which we present performance evaluation of multi-antenna assisted RIS systems. In addition, we systematically survey existing designs for RIS-enhanced wireless networks encompassing performance analysis, information theory, and performance optimization perspectives. Furthermore, we survey existing research contributions that apply machine learning for tackling challenges in dynamic scenarios, such as random fluctuations of wireless channels and user mobility in RIS-enhanced wireless networks. Last but not least, we identify major issues and research opportunities associated with the integration of RISs and other emerging technologies for applications to next-generation networks.
We investigate the power of censoring techniques, first developed for learning {em fair representations}, to address domain generalization. We examine {em adversarial} censoring techniques for learning invariant representations from multiple studies (or domains), where each study is drawn according to a distribution on domains. The mapping is used at test time to classify instances from a new domain. In many contexts, such as medical forecasting, domain generalization from studies in populous areas (where data are plentiful), to geographically remote populations (for which no training data exist) provides fairness of a different flavor, not anticipated in previous work on algorithmic fairness. We study an adversarial loss function for $k$ domains and precisely characterize its limiting behavior as $k$ grows, formalizing and proving the intuition, backed by experiments, that observing data from a larger number of domains helps. The limiting results are accompanied by non-asymptotic learning-theoretic bounds. Furthermore, we obtain sufficient conditions for good worst-case prediction performance of our algorithm on previously unseen domains. Finally, we decompose our mappings into two components and provide a complete characterization of invariance in terms of this decomposition. To our knowledge, our results provide the first formal guarantees of these kinds for adversarial invariant domain generalization.
With both the standardization and commercialization completed in an unforeseen pace for the 5th generation (5G) wireless network, researchers, engineers and executives from the academia and the industry have turned their sights on candidate technolog ies to support the next generation wireless networks. Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RIS), sometimes referred to as intelligent reflecting surfaces (IRS), have been identified to be potential components of the future wireless networks because they can reconfigure the propagation environment for wireless signals with low-cost passive devices. In doing so, the coverage of a cell can be expected to increase significantly as well as the overall throughput of the network. RIS has not only become an attractive research area but also triggered a couple of projects to develop appropriate solutions to enable the set-up of hardware demonstrations and prototypes. In parallel, technical discussions and activities towards standardization already took off in some regions. Promoting RIS to be integrated into future commercial networks and become a commercial success requires significant standardization work taken place both at regional level standards developing organizations (SDO) and international SDOs such as the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP). While many research papers study how RIS can be used and optimized, few effort is devoted to analyzing the challenges to commercialize RIS and how RIS can be standardized. This paper intends to shed some light on RIS from an industrial viewpoint and provide a clear roadmap to make RIS industrially feasible.
Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs) are an emerging field of research in wireless communications. A fundamental component for analyzing and optimizing RIS-empowered wireless networks is the development of simple but sufficiently accurate model s for the power scattered by an RIS. By leveraging the general scalar theory of diffraction and the Huygens-Fresnel principle, we introduce simple formulas for the electric field scattered by an RIS that is modeled as a sheet of electromagnetic material of negligible thickness. The proposed approach allows us to identify the conditions under which an RIS of finite size can or cannot be approximated as an anomalous mirror. Numerical results are illustrated to confirm the proposed approach.
