The integration of reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs) and grant-free non-orthogonal multiple access (GF-NOMA) has emerged as a promising solution for enhancing spectral efficiency and massive connectivity in future wireless networks. This paper proposes a GF-NOMA communication network enabled by simultaneously transmitting and reflecting RISs (STAR-RIS). In the proposed GF-NOMA, all user equipments (UEs) have instantaneous access to resource blocks (RBs) without the need for grant acquisition and power control as in the traditional grant-based NOMA schemes. Specifically, we have considered two regimes of interest: 1) the max-min fair (MMF) regime and 2) the max-sum throughput (MST) regime. To achieve the required power disparity, a two-level power control mechanism is proposed; initially, the UEs are clustered according to their channel gains. Additionally, we introduce a multi-level GF-NOMA (MGF-NOMA) scheme that adjusts the transmit power levels for each UE in the cluster. The second level of power disparity is achieved through the assignment of STAR-RISs to the clusters and optimal partitioning of STAR-RIS to support each of the cluster members. Specifically, we have also derived the closed-form equations for the optimal partitioning of STAR-RIS within the clusters for both regimes of interest. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed STAR-RIS-aided MGF-NOMA yields a gain of 60% and 20% in the MST regime with active and passive RIS realization, respectively. Furthermore, the active and passive RIS-based MGF-NOMA achieve nearly the equivalent fairness that can be obtained through optimal power control in the MMF regime. The finding emphasizes the potential of integrating STAR-RIS with GF-NOMA as a robust and promising solution for future wireless communication systems.
