However, the data discrepancy among individual agents can significantly degrade the performance of FRL-based algorithms. To address this limitation, we exploit the node-wise invariance property of rectified linear unit-activated neural networks, with the aim of reducing data discrepancy to improve learning performance. Based on this property, we introduce a backward rescale-invariant operation to develop a rescale-invariant FRL algorithm. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm notably enhances both convergence speed and convergent performance.","PeriodicalId":13197,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Communications Letters","volume":"28 12","pages":"2799-2803"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142810497","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We explore the necessary number of sensing steps to gather sufficient knowledge about the interferer’s behavior. With more sensing steps, the reliability of the model-parameter estimates is improved, thereby enabling more effective link adaptation. However, in each time slot, the communication system experiencing interference must choose between sensing and communication. Thus, we propose to investigate the optimal policy for maximizing the expected sum communication data rate over a finite-time communication. This approach contrasts with most studies on interference management in the literature, which assume that the parameters of the interference model are perfectly known. We begin by showing that the problem under consideration can be modeled within the framework of a Markov decision process (MDP). Following this, we demonstrate that both the optimal open-loop and optimal closed-loop policies can be determined with reduced computational complexity compared to the standard backward-induction algorithm.","PeriodicalId":13197,"journal":{"name":"IEEE Communications Letters","volume":"28 12","pages":"2914-2919"},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2024-10-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142810379","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

HMIMO channel estimation, whose mathematical formulation is significantly varied, reminiscent of conventional sparse recovery solutions may result in unprecedented challenges. In this letter, we propose a tensor modalized channel estimation approach for efficient holographic communications. Specially, Fourier plane wave-based channel is formulated as a 2-mode tensor by jointly employing the physical dimensions of the transmitter and the receiver, enabling the extraction of high-dimensional electromagnetic characteristics. The channel estimation problem is further modeled as a 3-mode sparse tensor reconstruction issue by exploiting spatial characteristics of wireless channels, wherein an additional tensor dimension is added for the information union of various channel slices. Tensor compressive sampling matching pursuit (TCoSaMP) is elaborated based on a multiple selection mechanism, with theoretical guarantees derived from the perspective of a high-dimensional tensor. Furthermore, detailed complexity analysis demonstrates the efficiency of TCoSaMP.

The multiple threshold judgment method terminates the iterative process when the threshold condition is satisfied, effectively reducing the recognition process’s computational complexity.
