Original Abstract Submitted
A method and apparatus for a reflective intelligent surface (RIS) control interface. The apparatus transmits, to a RIS, a synchronization signal to establish a level of synchronization between the base station and the RIS. The level of synchronization between the base station and the RIS configures the RIS to receive a control signal from the base station. The apparatus transmits, to the RIS, the control signal comprising a RIS configuration. The apparatus may transmit, to the RIS, a signal for reflection by the RIS to at least a first wireless device.
