Abstract

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. Generally, the techniques described herein may enable information transfer via channel-adaptive space time block codes (STBCs) over reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs). For example, a network entity may transmit a control message indicating a set of parameters associated with an STBC of multiple STBCs associated with a RIS, where the set of parameters includes a size of the STBC. The network entity may transmit, to the RIS, a downlink message and the RIS may encode one or more information bits on the downlink message according to the parameters associated with the STBC. Additionally, the RIS may reflect the downlink message to a UE based on the set of parameters, where the reflected message includes the one or more information bits, and the UE may identify the one or more information bits based on a detection procedure associated with the set of parameters.
