Abstract: This paper studies the throughput of intelligent omni-surfaces (IOS) when the source recovers power from the sun and wind to broadcast packets to two users Ut and Ur. Ut and Ur are located in the transmit and reflect spaces of IOS. The recovered power from the sun depends on radiation intensity that has a Gaussian distribution. IOS is an excellent candidate for 6G communications as it offers significant performance enhancement. However, IOS using the wind or the solar powers was not yet studied. The harvesting process is optimised to maximise the throughput. IOS with 64 elements offers 48 dB gain.

Keywords: intelligent omni-surfaces; IOS; solar; wind energy harvesting; SINR; Rayleigh channels.
