The Intelligent Reflection Surface (IRS) is a crucial technology for the development of next-generation wireless mobile networks. However, its deployment is usually limited to Line-of-Sight (LoS) transmission paths of Base Stations (BSs) due to path-loss and beamforming restrictions. LoS wireless ch...
