The use of real-time software-controlled reconfigurable intelligent surface\n(RIS) units is proposed to increase the reliability of vehicle-to-everything\n(V2X) communications. The optimum placement problem of the RIS units is\nformulated by considering their sizes and operating modes. The solution of the\nproblem is given, where it is shown that the placement of the RIS depends on\nthe locations of the transmitter and the receiver. The proposed RIS-supported\nhighway deployment can combat the high path loss experienced by the use of\nhigher frequency bands, including the millimeter-wave and the terahertz bands,\nthat are expected to be used in the next-generation wireless networks, enabling\nthe use of the existing base station deployment plans to remain operational,\nwhile providing reliable and energy-efficient connectivity for autonomous\nvehicles.\n
