Reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) is a type of wireless communication
technology that uses a reconfigurable surface, such as a wall or building that
is able to adjust its properties by an integrated optimization algorithm in
order to optimize the signal propagation for a given communication scenario. As
a reconfiguration algorithm the multidimensional optimization of the GNU
scientific library was analyzed to evaluate the performance of the smart
surface in the quality of signal reception. This analysis took place by means
of electrodynamic simulations based on the finite difference time domain
method. Through these simulations it was possible to observe the efficiency of
the algorithm in the reconfiguration of the RIS, managing to focus the
electromagnetic waves in a remarkable way towards the point of interest.Comment: Accepted to URSI GASS 202
