Abstract

Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs) with their potential of enabling a programmable environment comprise a promising technology to support the coexistence of enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB) and ultra-reliable-low-latency communication (URLLC) services. In this paper, we propose a RIS-assisted scheme for multiplexing hybrid eMBB-URLLC uplink traffic. Specifically, the scheme relies on the computation of two RIS configurations, given that only eMBB channel state information (CSI) is available. The first configuration optimizes the eMBB quality of service, while the second one mitigates the eMBB interference in the URLLC traffic. Analyzing the outage probability achieved by the scheme, we demonstrate that a RIS can improve the reliability of URLLC transmissions even in the absence of URLLC CSI.
