RISs are large surfaces without separate antennas and are considered as a whole, while LISs are composed of small antennas with limited capabilities. (Is this understanding right?)
What is the specific difference between RIS and LIS in terms of the phase shifts they induce to their received signal?
Can we assume the same phase shift from both RIS and LIS?
What is the difference in modeling their channel, mathematically? (What I see, both are modeled with a coefficient and a specific phase shift)
