Imene Trigui is a Professor in Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Quebec at Chicoutimi (UQAC), in the Department of Applied Sciences. She is the founder of the CASTEL Lab (Circuit Architecture and Services for Telecommunications), focusing on advanced wireless communications, network architectures, and intelligent system design. Her research covers an extensive and cutting‑edge range of topics within wireless communications and signal processing including Reconfigurable metasurfaces / Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS) and cell-free systems.
Talk Title: Modeling Dependent Features in RIS Wireless Channels Using Copula Theory
Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS) enable unprecedented control over wireless propagation environments, yet conventional models for RIS often ignore the intricate dependencies among RIS signal components. In this talk, I will present methods for modeling dependent features in RIS wireless channels using copula theory. This framework presents a principled path for dependency-aware channel modelling and supports both theoretical analysis and practical implementation of RIS.
