Smart Skins in SREs: Improving Communication and Localization Performance
Michele Beccaria, Davide Scazzoli, Maurizio Magarini, Paola Pirinoli · 2025
The definition of a Smart Radio Environment (SRE) and its use in improving the performance of a communication system, as well as designing a passive localization system at mm-wave using multiple Smart Electromagnetic Skins (SESs), is investigated here. This dual goal is achieved by properly locating and designing the SESs in such a way that each of them covers a different angular sector and their interaction is minimized. Preliminary numerical results confirms the feasibility of the proposed SRE.
