Abstract

A method for establishing a direct communication using an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) with a reconfiguration intelligent surface (RIS) includes configuring RIS parameters based on compensating for undesired oscillations of a position and an orientation associated with the UAV. A signal reflection associated with a beam signal is steered to a target area based on the RIS parameters and by the RIS of the UAV. The signal beam is from a transmitter.
