Performance of RIS-Secured Short-Packet NOMA Systems With Discrete Phase-Shifter to Protect Digital Content and Copyright Against Untrusted User by Nguyen Quang Sang, Hye-Young Kim, Tan N. Nguyen, Minh Bui Vu, Phuong T. Tran, Tran Trung Duy, Byung-Seo Kim, Miroslav Voznak

“…Meanwhile, to meet high spectrum utilization, Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) has emerged as a potential technology in the last decade, for its ability to serve multi-user communication simultaneously by exploiting power-domain rather than time or frequency domains. Especially, incorporating Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS) with NOMA/SPC-based systems can further boost the system&#x2019;s spectral efficiency as well as enhance communication coverage. …”
