Performance Analysis of Multiple-RIS-Based NOMA Systems.

In this paper, we present a study on a model of multirelay radio network system that utilizes reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs). We investigate the use of nonorthogonal multiple access (NOMA) combined with cooperative RIS systems, using partial RIS selection (PRISs). Specifically, the RISs act as relays to forward data from the base station to the two users. The focus of this paper is to analyze the outage probabilities and throughput for the two users. Based on the results, we examine how PRISs affect the performance of the proposed NOMA scheme. The derived asymptotic expressions show that the proposed model can improve user fairness. Finally, we compare the analysis results with the simulation results and find good agreement. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
