A Learnable SIM Paradigm: Fundamentals, Training Techniques, and Applications

arXiv CS.AI

ArXi:2603.24599v1 Announce Type: cross Stacked intelligent metasurfaces (SIMs) represent a breakthrough in wireless hardware by comprising multilayer, programmable metasurfaces capable of analog computing in the electromagnetic (EM) wave domain. By examining their architectural analogies, this article reveals a deeper connection between SIMs and artificial neural networks (ANNs). Leveraging this profound structural similarity, this work
