description Enhancing Internet of Things (IoT) communications through Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS) necessitates novel approaches that go beyond the conventional deployment of passive elements. This paper introduces an efficient method to enhance IoT system performance by combining active and passive functionality in RISs: an active and passive integrated approach. One identified enhancement area is efficiently managing signal throughput and exchanges in IoT systems, which is essential for supporting numerous devices. For this challenge, we propose a thorough process model that describes channel gains, develops a nonlinear energy harvesting, and identifies device-to-device communication schemes without violating information causality. The innovative component of our work is the utilization and strategic application of RIS panels that benefit from the advantages of active and passive components synergism to solve thermal noise issues and optimize signal reflection and transmission. An advanced optimization mechanism is developed based on mixed-integer nonlinear programming: an enabling approach between performance efficiency and maximum service utilization. Our simulation analysis show that developed RIS panels optimize IoT system performance and surpass existing performance indicators in conventional RIS-less systems.
