    Abstract We consider a relay system empowered by an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) that facilitates downlink information delivery while adhering to finite blocklength requirements. The setup involves a remote controller transmitting information to both a UAV and an industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) or remote device, employing the non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) technique in the first phase. Subsequently, the UAV decodes and forwards this information to the remote device in the second phase. Our primary objective is to minimize the decoding error probability (DEP) at the remote device, which is influenced by the DEP at the UAV. To achieve this goal, we optimize the blocklength, transmission power, and location of the UAV. However, the underlying problem is highly non-convex and generally intractable to be solved directly. To overcome this challenge, we adopt an alternative optimization (AO) approach and decompose the original problem into three sub-problems. This approach leads to a sub-optimal solution, which effectively mitigates the non-convexity issue. In our simulations, we compare the performance of our proposed algorithm with baseline schemes. The results reveal that the proposed framework outperforms the baseline schemes, demonstrating its superiority in achieving lower DEP at the remote device. Furthermore, the simulation results illustrate the rapid convergence of our proposed algorithm, indicating its efficiency and effectiveness in solving the optimization problem.
    摘要 我们考虑了一种由无人机(UAV) empowered的 relay 系统,该系统可以在 finite blocklength 的限制下提供下行信息传输。系统包括一个远程控制器,该控制器将信息传输到 UAV 和一个工业互联网对象(IIoT)或远程设备,使用非正交多存取(NOMA)技术在第一阶段。在第二阶段,UAV 将这些信息解码并转发给远程设备。我们的主要目标是最小化译码错误概率(DEP)在远程设备上,该错误概率受 UAV 的 DEP 影响。为了实现这个目标,我们优化块长度、传输功率和 UAV 的位置。然而,这个问题具有非对称和紧难直接解决的特点。为了解决这个挑战,我们采用了一种代替优化(AO)方法,将原始问题分解成三个子问题。这种方法导致一个差不多的解决方案,有效地减少了非对称性问题。在我们的 simulate 中,我们与基线方案进行比较。结果表明,我们的提posed 框架在 DEP 上具有更低的性能,表明其在远程设备上的superiority。此外,我们的 simulate 结果表明我们的算法具有快速收敛的特点,这表明它在解决优化问题时的效率和可靠性。

    Abstract Wireless networks-on-chip (WNoCs) are an enticing complementary interconnect technology for multi-core chips but face severe resource constraints. Being limited to simple on-off-keying modulation, the reverberant nature of the chip enclosure imposes limits on allowed modulation speeds in sight of inter-symbol interference, casting doubts on the competitiveness of WNoCs as interconnect technology. Fortunately, this vexing problem was recently overcome by parametrizing the on-chip radio environment with a reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS). By suitably configuring the RIS, selected channel impulse responses (CIRs) can be tuned to be (almost) pulse-like despite rich scattering thanks to judiciously tailored multi-bounce path interferences. However, the exploration of this "over-the-air" (OTA) equalization is thwarted by (i) the overwhelming complexity of the propagation environment, and (ii) the non-linear dependence of the CIR on the RIS configuration, requiring a costly and lengthy full-wave simulation for every optimization step. Here, we show that a reduced-basis physics-compliant model for RIS-parametrized WNoCs can be calibrated with a single full-wave simulation. Thereby, we unlock the possibility of predicting the CIR for any RIS configuration almost instantaneously without any additional full-wave simulation. We leverage this new tool to systematically explore OTA equalization in RIS-parametrized WNoCs regarding the optimal choice of delay time for the RIS-shaped CIR's peak. We also study the simultaneous optimization of multiple on-chip wireless links for broadcasting. Looking forward, the introduced tools will enable the efficient exploration of various types of OTA analog computing in RIS-parametrized WNoCs.
    摘要 无线网络在芯片(WNoCs)是一种吸引人的补充连接技术,但它们面临严重的资源约束。由于使用简单的ON-OFF键调制,芯片封包的噪声环境会限制允许的调制速率,从而影响WNoCs的竞争力。幸运的是,这个问题已经得到了解决,通过使用可配置的智能表面(RIS)来Parametrize the on-chip radio environment。通过适当配置RIS,可以通过 selecing channel impulse responses(CIRs)来实现(近乎)普液化调制,即使在丰富的散射下。然而,这种“空中”(OTA)平衡的探索被阻塞了(1)压倒性的宽泛环境,以及(2)RIS配置的非线性依赖关系,需要每个优化步骤都需要昂贵和时间consuming的全波 Simulation。在这里,我们展示了一种基于物理的减少基准模型,可以在RIS参数化的WNoCs中快速地Calibrate the CIR for any RIS configuration。通过这种新工具,我们可以在不需要额外的全波 Simulation 的情况下,快速地预测CIR для任何RIS配置。我们利用这种新工具来系统地探索OTA平衡在RIS参数化的WNoCs中的最佳选择延迟时间。我们还研究了在多个芯片无线连接中同时优化的问题。在未来,我们将引入的工具将允许我们高效地探索不同类型的OTA分析计算在RIS参数化的WNoCs中。

    Abstract The transformative enhancements of fifth-generation (5G) mobile devices bring about new challenges to achieve better uplink (UL) performance. Particularly, in codebook-based transmission, the wide-band (WB) precoding and the legacy UL codebook may become main bottlenecks for higher efficient data transmission. In this paper, we investigate the codebook-based UL single-layer transmission performance using fully coherent antenna ports in the context of sub-band (SB) precoding. We analyze the SB precoder selection criteria and design an UL codebook used for SB precoding by increasing the number of relative phase shifts of each port. Via link-level simulations, we verify that the UL SB precoding can improve up to 2 dB performance gain in terms of the block error rate (BLER) compared with the UL WB precoding which is the current UL precoding scheme. We also show that UL performance gain is sensitive to the SB size selection as well as the relative phase shift diversity.

    Abstract Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs) are widely considered a promising technology for future wireless communication systems. As an important indicator of RIS-assisted communication systems in green wireless communications, energy efficiency (EE) has recently received intensive research interest as an optimization target. However, most previous works have ignored the different power consumption between ON and OFF states of the PIN diodes attached to each RIS element. This oversight results in extensive unnecessary power consumption and reduction of actual EE due to the inaccurate power model. To address this issue, in this paper, we first utilize a practical power model for a RIS-assisted multi-user multiple-input single-output (MU-MISO) communication system, which takes into account the difference in power dissipation caused by ON-OFF states of RIS's PIN diodes. Based on this model, we formulate a more accurate EE optimization problem. However, this problem is non-convex and has mixed-integer properties, which poses a challenge for optimization. To solve the problem, an effective alternating optimization (AO) algorithm framework is utilized to optimize the base station and RIS beamforming precoder separately. To obtain the essential RIS beamforming precoder, we develop two effective methods based on maximum gradient search and SDP relaxation respectively. Theoretical analysis shows the exponential complexity of the original problem has been reduced to polynomial complexity. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm outperforms the existing ones, leading to a significant increase in EE across a diverse set of scenarios.
    摘要 可重配置智能表面(RIS)技术被广泛认为是未来无线通信系统的优秀技术之一。作为RIS协助通信系统中绿色无线通信的重要指标,能效率(EE)在最近几年内受到了投入研究的广泛关注。然而,大多数前一些工作忽视了RIS元素上的PIN晶体的ON和OFF状态之间的能量消耗差异,这会导致无必要的能量浪费和EE的减少。为解决这个问题,在这篇论文中,我们首先采用了RIS协助多用户多输入单出口(MU-MISO)通信系统的实用能量模型,该模型考虑了RIS元素上PIN晶体的ON-OFF状态所导致的能量消耗差异。基于这个模型,我们形ulated了一个更加精准的EE优化问题。然而,这个问题具有非核心和杂合属性,这会对优化带来挑战。为解决这个问题,我们采用了有效的交互式优化(AO)算法框架,以分别优化基站和RIS的扫描频率和扫描方向。为了获得 essence RIS扫描频率和扫描方向,我们开发了两种有效的方法,包括最大峰值搜索和SDP缓和方法。理论分析表明,原始问题的几何复杂度已经降低到了多项式复杂度。实验结果表明,我们的算法在多种场景下比现有算法更高效,导致EE的提高。

    Abstract 5G New Radio (NR) has stringent demands on both performance and complexity for the design of low-density parity-check (LDPC) decoding algorithms and corresponding VLSI implementations. Furthermore, decoders must fully support the wide range of all 5G NR blocklengths and code rates, which is a significant challenge. In this paper, we present a high-performance and low-complexity LDPC decoder, tailor-made to fulfill the 5G requirements. First, to close the gap between belief propagation (BP) decoding and its approximations in hardware, we propose an extension of adjusted min-sum decoding, called generalized adjusted min-sum (GA-MS) decoding. This decoding algorithm flexibly truncates the incoming messages at the check node level and carefully approximates the non-linear functions of BP decoding to balance the error-rate and hardware complexity. Numerical results demonstrate that the proposed fixed-point GAMS has only a minor gap of 0.1 dB compared to floating-point BP under various scenarios of 5G standard specifications. Secondly, we present a fully reconfigurable 5G NR LDPC decoder implementation based on GA-MS decoding. Given that memory occupies a substantial portion of the decoder area, we adopt multiple data compression and approximation techniques to reduce 42.2% of the memory overhead. The corresponding 28nm FD-SOI ASIC decoder has a core area of 1.823 mm2 and operates at 895 MHz. It is compatible with all 5G NR LDPC codes and achieves a peak throughput of 24.42 Gbps and a maximum area efficiency of 13.40 Gbps/mm2 at 4 decoding iterations.

    Abstract Fundamental interactions are the basis of the most diverse phenomena in science that allow the dazzling of possible applications. In this work, we report a new interaction, which we call chemical-quantum-magnetic interaction. This interaction arises due to the difference in valence that the Fe3O4/PANI nanostructure acquires under certain conditions. In this study, PANI activates the chemical part of the oscillations, leaving the quantum and magnetic part for the double valence effect and consequently for changing the number of spins of the nanostructure sites.

    Abstract Neuromorphic sampling is a bioinspired and opportunistic analog-to-digital conversion technique, where the measurements are recorded only when there is a significant change in the signal amplitude. Neuromorphic sampling has paved the way for a new class of vision sensors called event cameras or dynamic vision sensors (DVS), which consume low power, accommodate a high-dynamic range, and provide sparse measurements with high temporal resolution making it convenient for downstream inference tasks. In this paper, we consider neuromorphic sensing of signals with a finite rate of innovation (FRI), including a stream of Dirac impulses, sum of weighted and time-shifted pulses, and piecewise-polynomial functions. We consider a sampling-theoretic approach and leverage the close connection between neuromorphic sensing and time-based sampling, where the measurements are encoded temporally. Using Fourier-domain analysis, we show that perfect signal reconstruction is possible via parameter estimation using high-resolution spectral estimation methods. We develop a kernel-based sampling approach, which allows for perfect reconstruction with a sample complexity equal to the rate of innovation of the signal. We provide sufficient conditions on the parameters of the neuromorphic encoder for perfect reconstruction. Furthermore, we extend the analysis to multichannel neuromorphic sampling of FRI signals, in the single-input multi-output (SIMO) and multi-input multi-output (MIMO) configurations. We show that the signal parameters can be jointly estimated using multichannel measurements. Experimental results are provided to substantiate the theoretical claims.
    摘要 《神经omorphic sampling:一种基于生物体的 opportunistic扫描技术》,我们使用神经omorphic sampling技术来捕捉信号,只在信号强度发生显著变化时进行扫描。这种技术具有低功耗、高 Dinamic range 和高时间分辨率等优点,使得后续的推理任务变得更加便捷。在这篇论文中,我们考虑了具有有限速度创新(FRI)信号的神经omorphic捕捉,包括束缚 Dirac 冲击、重量加权和时间偏移的冲击和分割 polynomials 函数。我们采用抽象理论方法,利用神经omorphic捕捉和时间基的关系,通过时间编码来编码测量。使用傅里叶分析,我们表明可以通过高分辨率spectral estimation方法来进行参数估计,从而实现完美的信号重建。我们开发了基于核函数的抽象 sampling 方法,可以在样本复杂度等于创新率的情况下实现完美的重建。我们还提供了神经omorphic捕捉器参数的充分条件,以确保完美的重建。此外,我们扩展了分析到多通道神经omorphic捕捉的 FRI 信号,包括单输入多输出(SIMO)和多输入多输出(MIMO)配置。我们表明可以通过多通道测量来共同估计信号参数。实验结果用于证明理论声明。

    Abstract This letter investigates the coexistence between near-field (NF) and far-field (FF) communications, where multiple FF users are clustered to be served on the beams of legacy NF users, via non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA). Three different successive interference cancellation (SIC) decoding strategies are proposed and a sum rate maximization problem is formulated to optimize the assignment and decoding order. The beam allocation problem is further reformulated as an overlapping coalitional game, which facilitates the the design of the proposed clustering algorithm. The optimal decoding order in each cluster is also derived, which can be integrated into the proposed clustering. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed clustering algorithm is able to significantly improve the sum rate of the considered system, and the developed strategies achieve different trade-offs between sum rate and fairness.

    Abstract Energy consumption remains the main limiting factors in many promising IoT applications. In particular, micro-controllers consume far too much power. In order to overcome this problem, new circuit designs have been proposed and the use of spiking neurons and analog computing has emerged as it allows a very significant consumption reduction. However, working in the analog domain brings difficulty to handle the sequential processing of incoming signals as is needed in many use cases.In this paper, we propose to use a bio-inspired phenomenon called Interacting Synapses to produce a time filter. We propose a model of synapses that makes the neuron fire for a specific range of delays between two incoming spikes, but not react when this Inter-Spike Timing is not in that range. We study the parameters of the model to understand how to adapt the Inter-Spike Timing. The originality of the paper is to propose a new way, in the analog domain, to deal with temporal sequences.

    Abstract With the emerging environment-aware applications, ubiquitous sensing is expected to play a key role in future networks. In this paper, we study a 3-dimensional (3D) multi-target localization system where multiple intelligent reflecting surfaces (IRSs) are applied to create virtual line-of-sight (LoS) links that bypass the base station (BS) and targets. To fully unveil the fundamental limit of IRS for sensing, we first study a single-target-single-IRS case and propose a novel \textit{two-stage localization protocol} by controlling the on/off state of IRS. To be specific, in the IRS-off stage, we derive the Cram\'{e}r-Rao bound (CRB) of the azimuth/elevation direction-of-arrival (DoA) of the BS-target link and design a DoA estimator based on the MUSIC algorithm. In the IRS-on stage, the CRB of the azimuth/elevation DoA of the IRS-target link is derived and a simple DoA estimator based on the on-grid IRS beam scanning method is proposed. Particularly, the impact of echo signals reflected by IRS from different paths on sensing performance is analyzed. Moreover, we prove that the single-beam of the IRS is not capable of sensing, but it can be achieved with \textit{multi-beam}. Based on the two obtained DoAs, the 3D single-target location is constructed. We then extend to the multi-target-multi-IRS case and propose an \textit{IRS-adaptive sensing protocol} by controlling the on/off state of multiple IRSs, and a multi-target localization algorithm is developed. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of our scheme and show that sub-meter-level positioning accuracy can be achieved.

    Abstract In this paper, the receive generalized spatial modulation (RGSM) scheme with reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RIS) assistance is proposed. The RIS group controllers change the reflected phases of the RIS elements to achieve the selection of receive antennas and phase shift keying (PSK) modulation, and the amplitudes of the received symbols are adjusted by changing the activation states of the elements to achieve amplitude phase shift keying (APSK) modulation. Compared with the existing RIS-aided receive generalized space shift keying (RIS-RGSSK) scheme, the proposed scheme realizes that the selected antennas respectively receive different modulation symbols, and only adds the process to control the modulated phases and the activation states of elements. The proposed scheme has better bit error rate (BER) performance than the RIS-RGSSK scheme at the same rate. In addition, the results show that for low modulation orders, the proposed scheme will perform better with PSK, while for high modulation order, APSK is better. The proposed scheme is a promising scheme for future wireless communication to achieve high-efficiency.

    Abstract Spatial Modulation (SM) can utilize the index of the transmit antenna (TA) to transmit additional information. In this paper, to improve the performance of SM, a non-uniform constellation (NUC) and pre-scaling coefficients optimization design scheme is proposed. The bit-interleaved coded modulation (BICM) capacity calculation formula of SM system is firstly derived. The constellation and pre-scaling coefficients are optimized by maximizing the BICM capacity without channel state information (CSI) feedback. Optimization results are given for the multiple-input-single-output (MISO) system with Rayleigh channel. Simulation result shows the proposed scheme provides a meaningful performance gain compared to conventional SM system without CSI feedback. The proposed optimization design scheme can be a promising technology for future 6G to achieve high-efficiency.

Recently, deep learning (DL) has been introduced for CSI feedback enhancement through massive collected training data and lengthy training time, which is quite costly and impractical for realistic deployment. In this article, a knowledge-driven meta-learning approach is proposed, where the DL model initialized by the meta model obtained from meta training phase is able to achieve rapid convergence when facing a new scenario during target retraining phase. Specifically, instead of training with massive data collected from various scenarios, the meta task environment is constructed based on the intrinsic knowledge of spatial-frequency characteristics of CSI for meta training. Moreover, the target task dataset is also augmented by exploiting the knowledge of statistical characteristics of wireless channel, so that the DL model can achieve higher performance with small actually collected dataset and short training time. In addition, we provide analyses of rationale for the improvement yielded by the knowledge in both phases. Simulation results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed approach from the perspective of feedback performance and convergence speed.

    Abstract Recently, neural networks have improved MinSum message-passing decoders for low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes by multiplying or adding weights to the messages, where the weights are determined by a neural network. The neural network complexity to determine distinct weights for each edge is high, often limiting the application to relatively short LDPC codes. Furthermore, storing separate weights for every edge and every iteration can be a burden for hardware implementations. To reduce neural network complexity and storage requirements, this paper proposes a family of weight-sharing schemes that use the same weight for edges that have the same check node degree and/or variable node degree. Our simulation results show that node-degree-based weight-sharing can deliver the same performance requiring distinct weights for each node. This paper also combines these degree-specific neural weights with a reconstruction-computation-quantization (RCQ) decoder to produce a weighted RCQ (W-RCQ) decoder. The W-RCQ decoder with node-degree-based weight sharing has a reduced hardware requirement compared with the original RCQ decoder. As an additional contribution, this paper identifies and resolves a gradient explosion issue that can arise when training neural LDPC decoders.
    摘要 近些年,神经网络已经改进了MinSum消息传递解码器,用于低密度约束Check(LDPC)编码器。在这些解码器中,神经网络会对消息 multiply 或 add weights,其中 weights 的确定由神经网络。然而,神经网络Complexity determining distinct weights for each edge is high,通常只能应用于相对短LDPC编码器。此外,每个边和每个迭代都需要独立存储 weights 的存储要求是硬件实现的负担。为了减少神经网络复杂性和存储要求,本文提出了一家weight-sharing方案,该方案使用同样的weight для每个检查节点度和/或变量节点度相同的边。我们的实验结果表明,基于节点度的weight-sharing可以实现与每个节点具有独立 weights 的性能。此外,本文还将这种度量Specific neural weights与 reconstruction-computation-quantization(RCQ)解码器结合,生成一个weighted RCQ(W-RCQ)解码器。W-RCQ解码器采用node-degree-based weight sharing,与原始RCQ解码器相比,具有更低的硬件需求。作为其他贡献,本文还识别并解决了在培育神经LDPC解码器时可能出现的梯度爆炸问题。
