Abstract
Providing enhanced quality of service (QoS) to support demanding applications in the most energy-efficient way has been identified as a primary objective of future 6G networks. Towards this direction, the concept of programmable wireless environments (PWEs) has emerged, wherein extremely high QoS can be ensured by controlling the wireless propagation through reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RIS). To meet the demands of 6G networks in terms of energy efficiency, in this paper, zero-energy RISs (ZERISs) are introduced, which harvest the required amount of energy for their operation and then contribute to the PWE conversion. More specifically, we investigate the performance of a ZERIS-assisted communication system in terms of joint energy-data rate outage probability, which quantifies the trade-off between the harvested energy and information transmission, for three distinct simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) methods are investigated, namely power splitting, time switching, and element splitting. Finally, simulation results validate the derived analysis, leading to useful insights for the ZERIS-assisted network regarding which energy harvesting method achieves better performance in terms of joint energy-data rate outage probability.
