Περίληψη:
Future wireless networks are expected to evolve toward an intelligent
and software reconfigurable paradigm enabling ubiquitous communications
between humans and mobile devices. They will also be capable of sensing,
controlling, and optimizing the wireless environment to fulfill the
visions of low-power, high-throughput, massively- connected, and
low-latency communications. A key conceptual enabler that is recently
gaining increasing popularity is the HMIMOS that refers to a low-cost
transformative wireless planar structure comprised of sub-wavelength
metallic or dielectric scattering particles, which is capable of shaping
electromagnetic waves according to desired objectives. In this article,
we provide an overview of HMIMOS communications including the available
hardware architectures for reconfiguring such surfaces, and highlight
the opportunities and key challenges in designing HMIMOS-enabled
wireless communications.
