Abstract

Systems and methods for dynamically controlling connections between a plurality of servers in a data center, where the data center includes at least a first reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) and a first RIS controller (RISC) configured to control physical propagation settings of physical propagation elements of the first RIS, wherein each server of the plurality of servers includes or is communicably connected with a wireless connection component enabling communication via directive wireless propagation via the physical propagation elements of the first RIS. A controller device pushes a set of one or more RIS configurations to the RIS and a set of one or more transceiver beamforming configurations to the wireless connection components and jointly determines an optimal transceiver beamforming configuration and an optimal RIS configuration using the connection feedback information.
