TMYTEK XRifle Dynamic RIS
TMYTEK XRifle Dynamic RIS – reconfigurable intelligent surface for 5G/6G, FR1 & FR2
The TMYTEK XRifle Dynamic RIS (Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface) dynamically redirects radio signals and reconfigures reflection angles in real time – opening up Non-Line-of-Sight areas, blind spots and poorly served zones in 5G/6G networks. The family spans three models across sub-6 GHz and mmWave: 3G5 (3.35–3.6 GHz), 4G7 (4.2–5.2 GHz) and 28G (26–30 GHz). A single controller manages up to four RIS modules simultaneously.

Modular design & software
A single controller drives up to four RIS modules at once – enabling large arrays up to 64×64 (4× 32×32). Heterogeneous combinations let 3.5, 4.7 and 28 GHz modules run in parallel to emulate FR1 and FR2 scenarios together. Control runs through the TMXLAB Kit with GUI and API; incidence and reflection angles adjust in real time.
