Abstract
The vision for 6th-generation (6G) wireless communication systems emphasizes the need for robust and reliable communication in extremely high-mobility scenarios, while also addressing critical demands for energy and spectral efficiency. Under such scenarios, doubly time-frequency selective fading channels often significantly degrade the performance of orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) based systems due to the impact of large delay and Doppler shifts. Recently, orthogonal time frequency space (OTFS) modulation has emerged as a promising alternative. By processing signals in the delay-Doppler (DD) domain, OTFS offers several advantages, including quasi-static channel characteristics, full-time-frequency diversity, and low peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR), making it a promising candidate for high-mobility communications. Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RIS) are being further integrated to enhance the performance of OTFS systems cost-effectively. With their ability to dynamically reconfigure the wireless environment, the integration of RIS can offer significant performance improvements for OTFS systems. This survey offers a comprehensive review of RIS-assisted OTFS systems, including the fundamental principles, recent advances, and future research directions. Specifically, we first introduce the background of RIS-assisted OTFS systems, outlining the opportunities and challenges of their integration. To ensure the survey is self-contained, we provide a brief overview of the fundamental principles of OTFS and RIS technologies. Building on these foundations, we present a general input-output relationship and capacity characterization for RIS-assited MIMO-OTFS systems. Then, this survey further explores cutting-edge research in areas such as input-output analysis, RIS phase shift design, channel estimation, detection techniques, RIS-assisted integrated sensing and communication (ISAC), and other novel technologies. Finally, we outline some future research directions.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
