Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface (RIS) is one of the most promising and revolutionary enabling technologies for the sixth-generation mobile communication system (6G). RISs provide a powerful tool to manipulate electromagnetic waves flexibly and construct intelligent wireless environment, which are expected to enhance the performance of wireless communication systems in a low-cost, low-power manner; thus, RISs attract extensive attention from both academia and industry. To overcome the random and uncontrollable characteristics of the traditional wireless channel and enable active modulation of the channel properties, it is urgent to speed up the evolution and innovation in the fundamental theory, design technique, system architecture, and algorithm optimization of RISs, so as to accelerate industrial application and commercialization process and provide new route for future wireless communication systems.

To maintain an advantage in research, standardization, and industry competition in the RIS area, and to provide important results in theoretical and application studies for future wireless communication, Frontiers of Information Technology & Electronic Engineering (FITEE) launches a special feature of “RIS System Implementation and Applications to Wireless Communications.” Prof. Tiejun Cui, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, is invited to serve as the Chief Editor. We call for papers on the following topics (but not limited to):

• Physical and Electromagnetic Modeling of RIS

• RIS Devices

• RIS Architectures and Interfaces

• Channel Measurement and Modeling of RIS

• Integration of RIS-Enabled Communication and Sensing

• Fundamental Theory for RIS-Enabled Wireless Communication

• Transmission Scheme and Optimization for RIS-Enabled Wireless Communication 

• Prototype Implementation and Measurement for RIS-Enabled Wireless Communication
