Abstract:

This work presents the design and optimization of a passive Intelligent Reflective Surface (IRS) based on a reflectarray technology to improve the coverage in a mm-Wave 5G scenario. A preliminary design is performed to achieve a wide beam in azimuth and elevation. The IRS is placed on a building façade and its effect is electromagnetically characterized for different materials. The design is then improved by optimizing the IRS considering the wall where it is placed.
