The paper introduces DRIFT, a lightweight framework for joint channel estimation and prediction in low Earth orbit non-terrestrial networks, aiming to reduce pilot overhead by using data-driven processing after the initial slot. DRIFT refines data-aided channel estimates and forecasts future channel responses with low computational cost, offering two variants based on convolutional and LSTM layers. Simulations show up to 12% spectral efficiency gain over conventional pilot-based systems, with under 200k multiply-accumulate operations suitable for on-board satellite implementation.

WiNeRF is a neural field framework that learns a spatially continuous, complex-valued wireless channel representation from sparse channel state information collected by commodity WiFi devices. It incorporates system constraints such as antenna geometry, limited spatial resolution, and phase uncertainty through a 3D conical wave sampling model, a multi-resolution implicit scene representation, and a differentiable optimization framework. In diverse indoor environments with non‑line‑of‑sight regions, WiNeRF achieves a median prediction SNR of 5.3 dB, outperforming prior neural baselines by 4.9 dB on average, and produces a task‑agnostic channel representation that can be reused in standard signal‑processing pipelines without hardware or protocol changes.

The paper introduces a hybrid estimator for pilot‑limited MIMO channel estimation that frames the problem as low‑rank tensor completion from sparse pilot data. It compares Canonical Polyadic (CP) and Tucker decompositions, showing CP excels for specular channels while Tucker offers stability under extreme pilot scarcity. A lightweight 3D U‑Net is added to capture residual components, and the combined Tensor–NN approach achieves significant NMSE improvements over conventional methods across various pilot densities and channel models.
