Enhancing wireless communication systems through large intelligent surfaces: a performance analysis of LIS-assisted NOMA networks.

The integration of large intelligent surfaces (LIS) with non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) networks has emerged as a promising solution to enhance the capacity and coverage of wireless communication systems. In this study, we analyse the performance of a NOMA network with the assistance of LIS. We propose a system model where a base station (BS) equipped with a LIS serves multiple users. The LIS consists of many passive elements that can influence the wireless channel by adjusting the reflection coefficients. We consider a downlink scenario where the BS transmits to multiple users simultaneously using NOMA, and the LIS helps to improve the signal quality and coverage. We additionally evaluate the efficiency of the suggested LIS-assisted NOMA network. In addition, we evaluate the efficiency of the LIS-assisted NOMA network in comparison to conventional NOMA systems that do not utilize LISs. The findings indicate that the LIS has a notable impact on enhancing the system's performance in terms of diversity gain, probability of error, and pairwise error probability (PEP). Moreover, the suggested LIS-assisted NOMA network is shown to be superior to conventional NOMA systems through comparison. These findings offer useful insights into the performance analysis of LIS-assisted NOMA networks. They also serve as inspiration and motivation for future research and development in this new subject, with the potential to revolutionize wireless communication systems.
