1-Bit Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface Pattern Controller User Interface

Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface (RIS) is a new technology that reflects signals to improve coverage in hard-to-reach or blocked areas. It uses a grid of antennas controlled by a central system that adjusts their position to direct signals where needed. A user interface helps manage the controller and the antennas, ensuring efficient signal redirection. In this paper, a Graphic User Interface (GUI) for RIS is proposed. Previous studies on RIS commonly used lab simulation software for user interface. However, such software is expensive and heavy since it includes many other functions. For future deployment purposes, lightweight and easy-to-use software where the only function is to update the pattern for RIS is recommended.
