Intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) has been envisioned as a disruptive technology with the capability of reconfiguring the wireless transmission environment. Hence, the IRS is used to assist the communication system, however, the impacts of inter-cell interference (ICI) on cell-edge users are seve...
