The paper proposes a CSI‑free hierarchical multi‑agent reinforcement learning framework for controlling reconfigurable reflective surfaces in millimeter‑wave networks. By replacing per‑element channel estimation with user localization data, the system uses a two‑tier neural architecture: a high‑level controller for discrete user‑to‑reflector assignments and low‑level controllers that optimize continuous focal points via MAPPO under a CTDE scheme. Deterministic ray‑tracing tests show RSSI gains of up to 7.79 dB over centralized PPO baselines and robust performance with sub‑meter localization errors for multiple users and reflector arrays.

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 studies optimal placement of millimeter-wave base stations in a realistic, non-convex campus layout using deep reinforcement learning. It compares four DRL methods—single-agent DQN, multi-agent partitioned DQN, single-agent DDPG, and multi-agent partitioned DDPG—and finds that the multi-agent DDPG approach achieves full coverage, a Jain's fairness index of 0.94, and superior performance in dense scenarios with 400 users. The multi-agent DDPG also converges more efficiently than single-agent methods.

The paper presents a large‑scale, 3GPP TR 38.901‑compliant dataset for RIS‑aided millimeter‑wave B5G networks, covering 20 deployment variants with diverse user densities, fading, and blockage conditions. Each sample includes oracle RIS phase configurations from a brute‑force search, along with full CSI, per‑link channel decomposition, optimal phase matrices, and CQI labels, enabling a wide range of machine‑learning tasks. The authors also introduce a novel CSI‑to‑CQI mapping as a benchmark for scalable link‑quality prediction and evaluate it against state‑of‑the‑art models under various conditions.
