With the large-scale deployment and commercialization of 5G, the traditional coverage enhancement technology is facing severe challenges due to high hardware cost and power consumption. At the same time, the emerging reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) technology, which can flexibly regulate incident waves and optimize the transmission path of wireless signals, is considered to be one of the most potential 6G key enabling technologies. This paper presents a 5G commercial network coverage enhancement prototype system based on RIS, which directly uses the base station in China Mobile 5G commercial network as transmitter, 5G network signal test terminal as receiver, and RIS code optimization algorithm is employed. The whole system forms a closed optimization loop of “obtaining data-analyzing data-feedback code” and is tested in multiple scenarios. In selected scenarios, the prototype system achieves a received power gain of about 6 dB, which is significant for the research of RIS in 5G commercial network.
