When the 5G network is born, following the development trend of technology, with the same requirements for processing speed, coverage, reliability, and low latency, there will inevitably be generations of networks Beyond 5G - B5G, 6G is researched and deployed. Along with user requirements, new network applications and scopes will bring many problems and challenges, requiring different communication models, and effective coordination technologies, especially in the physical layer. An outstanding technology that helps to optimize wireless communication systems are RIS (Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces) reflective surfaces. RIS helps to overcome the negative impacts of traditional communication systems, reduce interference, ensure reliability, increase security, optimize transmission channels, improve spectrum efficiency, save energy, open wide coverage, meet the requirements of users' data speed and quality of service, contributing to improving the overall performance of the entire communication system. In order to provide network designers, researchers, and authors, the author will conduct a survey of works to provide information on the theory of structure and operation of this outstanding technology.
