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 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.

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.
