| contents | Joint unicast and multi-group multicast transmission with RIS and RSMA is a promising enabler for 6G services. However, existing RSMA schemes for such scenarios split only unicast messages while leaving multicast messages intact, limiting the degree of freedom of interference management. To this end, we propose a joint rate splitting framework that splits both unicast and multicast information and two RSMA schemes. The common-common fusion (CCF-RSMA) scheme encodes the unicast common part into the global multicast common stream, while the private-common fusion (PCF-RSMA) scheme merges it with the group-specific multicast private part. For each scheme, we formulate energy efficiency (EE) maximization problems under both perfect and imperfect channel state information, and jointly optimize active beamforming, RIS phase shifts and rate allocation parameters. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed schemes significantly outperform the comparative schemes in terms of EE, thereby proving the effectiveness of the proposed framework. Moreover, CCF-RSMA is more favorable in scenarios with larger groups and higher unicast QoS demands, whereas PCF-RSMA is better suited for scenarios with smaller groups and higher multicast QoS. |
