Abstract

RIS is a technology with a physical layer that is crucial to 5G technology and also helps with 6G technology. Intelligent surfaces (RISs) that can be reconfigured in wireless contexts improve spectrum and energy efficiency. Given that the RIS idea as the leading technology in 6G wireless communications has been very new, we are presenting a survey of RISs in this study. In particular, we classify recent RIS studies in the following categories. The overview covers capability/data rate analysis, power/spectral optimisation, channel prediction, profound learning and reliability analysis in RIS-aided communication. We also study the introduction of RISs and the use of RISs in safe connectivity, terminal placement, etc. We also define potential research directions for RISs with a view to RIS technology in 6G communication networks that plays a vital role close to that of large 5G networks MIMOs. As an opportune overview of RISs, both researchers and clinicians who work on RISs for 6G networks will benefit from our work. The RISs mounted in the building or somewhere else can absorb wireless signals from a transmitter and can turn them passively into the receiver. In this paper, we will study: first, the evolution of the RIS technology, and second, its application
