Abstract
Provided herein are systems and methods for implementing an over-the-air neural network (OANN) including by receiving, at a relay receiver of a relay node, a signal of interest from a transmitter, directionally re-transmitting the signal of interest from each of a plurality of relay transmitters of the relay node to a corresponding one of a plurality of programmable reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RIS), reflecting, by each of the plurality of RIS, the corresponding re-transmitted signal of interest, and adjusting, by a neural network controller, a reflection angle of each of the plurality of RIS to direct the reflected signals of interest to combine in a deterministic manner at the relay receiver.
