Abstract
Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) and reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs) are recognized as key technologies for beyond 5G and 6G wireless communications. To address the high computational complexity and non-convex optimization challenges, this letter proposes an optimization framework based on the Multi-Agent Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (MADDPG) algorithm. The proposed framework jointly makes use of sensor grouping, power allocation, an RIS computation strategy, and phase shifts to minimize the remote state estimation (RSE) error. Simulation results demonstrate that the MADDPG algorithm, when applied in an RIS-assisted NOMA system, significantly reduces the RSE error.
