We particularly focus on the scenarios where the user is located in the far-field of all the R-RIS subarrays, and present a three-Dimensional (3D) localization method which is based on narrowband signaling and Angle of Arrival (AoA) estimates of the impinging signals at each single-receive-RF R-RIS subarray.
