Improving 5G AI-RAN MCS Selection by Predicting Retransmissions

The paper introduces NOSTRAdAMUS, a predictive link‑adaptation framework for 5G NR that forecasts retransmissions in the next radio frame using recent HARQ history and adjusts the Modulation and Coding Scheme accordingly. Gradient Boosting models achieve 82.9% overall accuracy, with high‑confidence predictions correct 94.2% of the time and a 5.5 µs inference latency. Evaluated OTA on the X5G testbed and various channel emulators, the approach boosts goodput by up to 71.5% and cuts retransmissions by up to 71.8% without retraining across diverse scenarios.

Is INT8 Portable? A Cross-Platform Measurement Study of Quantized Inference on Embedded and Automotive Accelerators

The study evaluates the portability of INT8 post‑training quantization across seven hardware platforms, including CPUs, GPUs, and vendor NPUs, by keeping the ONNX model and quantization scales constant. It finds that INT8 performance and output consistency vary significantly: CPU dot‑product instructions determine speedup, identical INT8 outputs only occur when integer kernels match, and vendor NPUs require their own quantization pipelines. The authors also show that edge‑NPU latency is dominated by data transfer rather than compute and provide scripts and reports for reproducibility.
