This Project Grant award, funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070), supports research to design and prototype an active reconfigurable intelligent surface (Active-RIS) system operating at 142 GHz. The $200,000 award to The Pennsylvania State University will enable the development of a wideband liquid crystal-based RIS with tunable reflection capabilities, as well as the design of robust algorithms for optimal control of the Active-RIS. The project will also validate the Active-RIS performance through extensive simulation and on-site wireless propagation measurements. This research aims to advance sub-terahertz wireless communication technologies and networks, which are critical for enabling future Terabit-per-second wireless data links.
