… are considered 244 to be spatially-correlated. To characterize the presence … STAR RIS
channels, we consider 246 Rician fading channels. To capture the effect of spatial 247 correlation …

… a STAR-RIS-assisted mMIMO system. Contrary to previous works on STAR-RIS, we consider
mMIMO, correlated fading, and multiple user equipments (UEs) at both sides of the RIS. In …

… Moreover, we show the impact of spatial correlation at the STAR-RIS. It is shown that the
performance increases as the correlation decreases. Also, the ES protocol exhibits a better …

… channel models, we take channel correlations into account. The normalized small scale
fading of the TX-St and TX-Sr channels is modeled by a correlated normal random vector, ie, …

… coverage compared to conventional (reflecting-only) RIS, we focus on the sum-rate …
correlation at the STAR-RIS, and we result in closedform expressions based on statistical channel …

… Moreover, in [12], three operating protocols for STAR-RIS were … works on STAR-RIS have
considered correlated fading, … for STAR-RIS assisted mMIMO systems with practical channel …

… of the proposed RIS/STARRIS architecture. In Section III, we provide the channel estimation …
∈ CN2×N2 are the correlation matrices of RIS and STAR-RIS, respectively. Regarding Rt, it …

… This article presents a comprehensive review of the STAR-RIS, focusing on the most recent
… foundation for RIS (passive, active, and STAR-RIS), and then discuss the STAR-RIS protocols…

… STAR-RIS aided NOMA multicell networks based on stochastic geometry, where the distributions
