Description: With the imminent arrival of 6G communication, the relevance of advanced technologies, such as multi-input multi-output (MIMO), non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA), reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RIS), and integrated sensing and communication (ISAC), has become prominent for plethora of Internet of Things (IoT) applications. However, integrating ISAC into a MIMO heterogeneous network (HetNets) necessitates reevaluating network performance in terms of outage probability and ergodic rates. This paper introduces a novel analytical framework for evaluating downlink transmissions in MIMO HetNets. The proposed framework considers independent homogeneous Poisson point processes (PPP) for spatial arrangement of the NOMA-enabled base stations (BSs) and users. BS in the t-th tier exploits superimposed NOMA signal for target sensing. Active RISs are considered to be distributed with homogeneous PPP and are used to mitigate blockage for UEs when the direct link from the BSs does not exist. The approximated and asymptotic outage probability expressions are derived for two distinct scenarios: one involving direct transmission from the BS to the typical blocked user and the other entailing transmission via active RIS. Moreover, a practical case of imperfect successive interference cancellation (i-SIC) is considered. The analysis emphasizes the benefits of the proposed active RIS-NOMA compared to conventional orthogonal multiple access HetNets, and valuable insights are drawn by varying the number of RIS elements. Additionally, an increase in the RIS elements significantly improves the proposed active RIS-NOMA outage performance. The approximated expressions of ergodic rates, system throughput and beampattern for the sensing performance are also derived.
