Deep Learning-Based Tri-Hybrid Multi-User MIMO Precoding: The Blessing of EM-Reconfigurable Antennas

The paper introduces Tri-PNet, a deep learning framework that jointly designs electromagnetic (EM), analog, and digital precoding for tri-hybrid multi-user MIMO OFDM systems. By leveraging Conformer architecture, Tri-PNet learns to select radiation patterns and perform hybrid precoding, achieving higher spectral efficiency than random EM precoding and conventional hybrid MIMO while maintaining low online complexity. The study evaluates two radiation-pattern modes—non-regular and 3GPP TR 38.901—showing robust performance even with imperfect channel state information.

EqDeepRx: Learning a Scalable and Interference Mitigating MIMO Receiver

arXiv:2602. 11834v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: While machine learning (ML)-based receiver algorithms have received a great deal of attention in the recent literature, they often suffer from poor scaling with increasing spatial multiplexing order and lack of explainability and generalization.

XL MIMO Extreme Learning Machines: Wave-Domain Inference with Stacked Metasurfaces

The paper proposes an XL‑MIMO system with stacked intelligent metasurfaces (SIM) that functions as a two‑layer neural network operating entirely over the air. The first layer is the uncontrollable wireless fading, while the second controllable layer is implemented via SIM operations, requiring only the front‑end metasurface to provide a nonlinear activation. Using the Extreme Learning Machine framework, the authors derive a closed‑form optimal linear SIM combining, enabling fast training and demonstrating classification accuracy comparable to digital models across various datasets.
