contents In this paper, we investigate real-time interference mitigation in multiuser wireless networks assisted by simultaneously transmitting and reflecting reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (STAR-RISs). Unlike conventional methods that rely on instantaneous channel state information (CSI), we consider a practical scenario where only statistical CSI is available, and the STAR-RIS phase shifts are impaired by random phase errors modeled via the Von Mises distribution. To tackle the resulting nonconvex optimization problem induced by unit-modulus constraints and stochastic interference, we derive a closed-form approximation of the effective channel matrix using statistical expectations. We then reformulate the interference minimization problem as an unconstrained optimization over a Riemannian manifold and propose a conjugate gradient algorithm tailored to the complex circle manifold. The proposed solution enables efficient real-time computation of optimal phase shifts while accounting for hardware imperfections and limited CSI. Simulation results confirm that our method significantly suppresses inter-user interference and achieves superior SINR performance and convergence speed compared to conventional baselines.
