Effect of Intelligent Reflecting Surface on WSN Communication With Access Points Configuration by Mahmoud Z. Iskandarani

“…Thus, this work objective is to simulate, model, and analyze parameters that are critical to the quality of transmitted signal over a wireless network and a WSN sensor nodes arrangement. The successful simulation, mathematical modeling, and analysis used Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) as a calibrating parameter to enable design and optimization of a network consisting of WSN sensor nodes, access points (APs), and IRS using two arrangements for the purpose of comparison between direct communication (Nodes-APs), and indirect communication (Nodes-IRS-APs). …”
