Distinguished ADSE Seminar Series

Intelligent Reflecting Surfaces for 6G Mobile Communications Systems

Date	2 JUL 2021 (Fri)
Time	2:30pm - 4:00pm
Speaker	Professor Wang Jiangzhou Professor of Telecommunications, Director of Research, University of Kent
Venue	Online via Zoom

Abstract

While the design of intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) has a long history in the electromagnetic literature, the communication application is in its infancy. Recently, IRS-assisted wireless communication has received considerable research attention, since it is capable of supporting cost-effective and energy-efficient high data rate communication for next-generation mobile communication. This talk will explain why IRS is needed for 6G mobile communications, what its applications and technical challenges are. Recent research results on IRS will be presented.
