Description
This work presents a practical framework for sustaining robust mmWave communication links in non-line-of-sight (NLoS) scenarios using a dynamically reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) operating at 28 GHz. The system integrates GNU Radio with a Python-based control backend to coordinate signal processing, RIS steering, and beam selection in real time. The focus of this work is on the testbed implementation -- specifically, the integration of dynamic RIS control with SDR hardware, synchronization across components, and the communication pipeline between GNU Radio and external control processes. Experimental results under mobile receiver conditions demonstrate the system’s ability to adaptively maintain mmWave links using dynamic RIS hardware and off-the-shelf SDR platforms, with minimal training overhead and high link reliability.
