Global Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS) Technology Supply, Demand and Key Producers, 2023-2029


The global Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS) Technology market size is expected to reach $ million by 2029, rising at a market growth of % CAGR during the forecast period (2023-2029).

With 5G at last gaining commercial traction and the debate about 6G now looking at what it might actually offer in practice (rather than just in theory) attention is turning towards how the industry can ensure that 6G, unlike some other allegedly transformational technologies, isn’t a triumph of hype over reality.

Hitherto, scientists and engineers have spent decades developing ever more efficient transmitters and receivers and working out ways to mitigate the apparently inevitable signal loss at the end points of a radio channel as they turned to higher and higher frequencies to obviate bandwidth congestion. They have done brilliantly, but it is evident that we are reaching the point where transmitters and receivers are as efficient as physically possible, so the focus is now on engineering the wireless channel itself.

One of the potentially most viable approaches to 6G infrastructure is the use of reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RIS) technology. This is an artificial planar structure – that is to say, lying in a plane, and thus, by definition, two-dimensional – with integrated electronic circuits that can be programmed dynamically to reflect, refract and manipulate incoming electromagnetic fields. RIS elements come in sizes ranging from about 100 square centimetres up to about 5 square metres or even bigger, and cost a good deal less than traditional cellular antennas. What’s more, RIS products are, to all intents and purposes, passive, which means they don’t need amplifiers to boost the signal and so can be powered with a simple battery and a small solar panel.

Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS) is a relatively new and innovative technology that falls under the broader category of intelligent reflecting surfaces or metasurfaces. RIS refers to a two-dimensional array of small elements, such as passive or active antennas, sensors, or other electromagnetic components, that can be electronically reconfigured to control the propagation of radio waves, sound waves, or other forms of electromagnetic radiation.

The main idea behind RIS is to manipulate and shape the electromagnetic waves by adjusting the phase, amplitude, or polarization of the reflected or transmitted signals. This enables the RIS to adaptively modify the signal's behavior, such as focusing or redirecting it, canceling interference, enhancing signal strength, or even creating specific radiation patterns.

The advantages of RIS include its energy efficiency as it operates passively, and it can work alongside existing wireless infrastructure, making it easier to deploy in real-world scenarios. However, RIS technology is still in its early stages, and research is ongoing to further explore its potential benefits and optimize its implementation in various applications.
