Description
Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces are emerging as a transformative technology in wireless communication, particularly in the context of massive Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (mMIMO) systems and Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) networks. This chapter provides an in-depth exploration of how RIS can enhance the performance of mMIMO and NOMA networks, focusing on both practical applications and research challenges. RIS technology enables dynamic control over the wireless environment by adjusting signal reflections and enhancing signal propagation, which can significantly improve the efficiency and effectiveness of mMIMO and NOMA systems. For mMIMO, RIS can optimize spatial beamforming and mitigate interference, leading to enhanced capacity and coverage. In NOMA networks, RIS can This chapter offers a comprehensive overview of the potential of RIS to revolutionize mMIMO and NOMA networks, while also addressing the critical research challenges that must be overcome to fully realize its benefits. 2025 by IGI Global Scientific Publishing.
