Abstract

A method for wireless communication performed by a user equipment (UE) includes receiving multiple reference signals (RSs), each RS of the plurality of RSs being associated with a reflection from a respective reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS), of multiple RISs, or with a direct transmission from a base station. The method also includes receiving, from the base station, a RIS configuration indicating a set of operative RISs, of the plurality of RISs, that reflect an uplink transmission from the UE. The method further includes transmitting, to the base station, an uplink message according to an uplink transmission power, the uplink transmission power being based on an effective pathloss that is a function of each pathloss of a set of pathlosses respectively associated with a set of RSs, of the multiple RSs, that are respectively associated with the set of operative RISs or the base station.
