[0129] Example 2, referring to Table 1, is the second example of the present invention. In order to further verify the technical solution of the present invention, experimental simulation data of a 5G communication and positioning integrated system based on RIS is provided.
[0130] Example 1 provides a 5G communication and positioning integrated system based on RIS. First, graphene with high reflectivity and low loss characteristics is selected as the reflective material, and a RIS unit with a micro-nano structure is constructed. The graphene flakes are deposited on the substrate through a deposition process to form a micro-nano structure with a periodic hexagonal pattern, ensuring the high reflectivity and low loss characteristics of the RIS unit. Subsequently, the reflection coefficient and transmission coefficient of the RIS unit are performance tested using a vector network analyzer VNA in a laboratory environment.

Based on the test results, the objective function and constraint conditions are constructed, and the structural parameters of the RIS unit are optimized.
[0131] Next, a microstrip antenna was selected as the basic unit of the multi-band compatible module, and the software-defined radio (SDR) technology was used to dynamically adjust the frequency band. USRP was selected as the hardware platform, and multi-band response was achieved through software library support. By constructing a sensitivity function, the operating frequency band of RIS was automatically adjusted to adapt to different communication needs.
[0132] In the hybrid positioning algorithm module, signal data were collected from three positioning technologies: UWB, GPS and Bluetooth. The original signal data was preprocessed, including noise removal and timestamp calibration. A hybrid positioning algorithm was constructed based on the preprocessed data, and the RIS reflection characteristics were used to enhance the signal strength in a specific area, further improving the positioning accuracy.
[0133] Finally, the reflective material optimization module, multi-band compatibility module and hybrid positioning algorithm module were integrated into the 5G communication and positioning integrated system through the system integration module. The unified JSON format was used as the data exchange standard, and the communication between modules was realized through the RESTful API. After starting the system, each module was loaded in turn, and the working parameters of each module were configured according to the system requirements and user needs. The modules were connected through the software interface to ensure that the data could flow smoothly between the modules, and a comprehensive performance evaluation was carried out on the integrated system.

[0135] Table 1 Experimental record table
[0136]
[0137] It can be seen from the above table data that compared with the prior art, the present invention shows significant advantages in many aspects. First, in terms of signal coverage, the prior art can only cover a distance of 100 meters, while the present invention significantly expands the signal coverage to 150 meters by optimizing the reflective material and structure, which is an increase of 50%. This means that under the same conditions, the present invention can better serve a wider geographical area, especially in the case of weak signals and obstructions, and can provide more stable communication services.
[0138] Secondly, in terms of signal strength, the signal strength of the prior art is -70dBm, while the present invention improves the signal strength to -55dBm by optimizing the RIS unit, which is an increase of 15dBm. This increase in signal strength shows that the present invention reduces attenuation during signal transmission and enhances signal transmission efficiency, thereby improving communication quality, which is particularly important for improving user experience, especially in environments with weak signals indoors and in underground parking lots.
[0139] Furthermore, in terms of positioning accuracy, the positioning accuracy of the prior art is 3 meters, while the present invention combines the data of multiple positioning technologies through a hybrid positioning algorithm module and utilizes the RIS reflection characteristics to enhance the signal strength, thereby improving the positioning accuracy to 1 meter. This means that the present invention can provide more accurate positioning services, especially in application scenarios that require high-precision positioning, including autonomous driving vehicle navigation and indoor object tracking, and can play an important role.
[0140] Finally, in terms of network load, the network load of the prior art is 0.7, while the present invention reduces the network load to 0.4 through a multi-band compatible module and dynamic band adjustment technology. This shows that the present invention can more effectively manage spectrum resources, reduce network burden, and thus improve overall system performance, which is crucial to meet the large-scale connection requirements of future 5G networks.
[0141] In summary, the present invention has achieved significant improvements in signal coverage, signal strength, positioning accuracy, network load and other aspects through key technologies such as reflective material optimization, multi-band compatibility, hybrid positioning algorithm and system integration, demonstrating its innovation and advantages in the field of 5G communication positioning.
