Abstract: As a candidate technique to achieve sixth-generation wireless communication (6G), reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) has become popular in both academia and industry. For better exploration of the advantages of RIS, we compare the performances of RIS and network-controlled repeater (NCR) in 3GPP release-18. We first theoretically analyze the received signal power and signal-to-noise ratio performances for both RIS and NCR. Then, we simulate the reference signal received power and signal-to-interference-and-noise ratio performances at the system level for both RIS and NCR in the frequency range 1 and frequency range 2 bands. Finally, several insights on engineering applications are given based on the comparison between RIS and NCR.
