An efficient algorithm for resource optimization in IRS-mmWave-NOMA B5G wireless networks

The effectiveness of implementing intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) for millimeter-wave (mmWave)-non-orthogonal multiple-access (NOMA) systems has allowed for significant sum-rate improvements. The majority of recent research has not discussed how well the IRS-mmWave-NOMA combination performs. Therefore, a new technique for resource optimization in IRS-mmWave-NOMA B5G wireless networks is proposed in this research. The key concept is to use an iterative algorithm to solve the optimization issue while incorporating many crucial constraints like the selection of the IRS beam, transmit power distribution, and decoding order, among others. Simulation results show that the proposed approach outperforms existing state-of-the-art algorithms in terms of computation delay, sum rate and NMSE. The computational complexity also validated the simplicity and hardware-friendly feature of the proposed algorithm.
