In this correspondence, a novel simultaneous transmitting and reflecting (STAR) reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs) design is proposed in a non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) enhanced coordinated multi-point transmission (CoMP) network. Based on the insights of signal-enhancement-based (SEB) and signal-cancellation-based (SCB) designs, we propose a novel simultaneous-signal-enhancement-and-cancellation-based (SSECB) design, where the inter-cell interferences and desired signals can be simultaneously eliminated and boosted. Our simulation results demonstrate that: i) the inter-cell interference can be perfectly eliminated, and the desired signals can be enhanced simultaneously with the aid of a large number of RIS elements; ii) the proposed SSECB design is capable of outperforming the conventional SEB and SCB designs.
