JEPA-kMMVAE: CSI Prediction for Time-Varying Wireless Channels

The paper introduces JEPA-kMMVAE, a neural network framework for predicting channel state information (CSI) in time‑varying multi‑antenna wireless channels using noisy historical observations. It combines a joint‑embedding predictive architecture with a k‑memory Markov variational autoencoder to generate temporally structured latent representations, enabling both direct prediction and residual corrections relative to the latest latent state and noisy CSI. Simulation results indicate that the residual configuration outperforms baseline methods at moderate and high input CSI signal‑to‑noise ratios, while sequence baselines remain more accurate under stronger noise.

Contrastive Predictive Coding with Compression for Enhanced Channel State Feedback in Wireless Networks

arXiv:2607. 05419v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Accurate and timely channel state information (CSI) is essential for next-generation wireless systems, yet existing works treat CSI compression and CSI prediction as separate problems, both in academia and in current 3GPP studies.

SNR-Gated LSTM-Conditioned Diffusion Model for MIMO Channel Estimation

The paper introduces a diffusion-based channel estimation framework for MIMO systems that incorporates temporal dynamics via an LSTM-conditioned denoiser. It employs a learnable SNR-gated fusion mechanism to balance observation fidelity with generative priors across a wide SNR range, and uses DDIM-style reverse updates with SNR-adaptive truncation to reduce inference latency. Simulations on standardized time-evolving channel models show consistent performance gains over existing diffusion-based baselines while maintaining low latency.

DRIFT: Joint Channel Estimation and Prediction Towards Pilotless 6G Non-Terrestrial Networks

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.

Self-Localizing MIMO Beam Mapping with Continuously Evolving Channel Memory

The paper introduces a self‑localizing MIMO beam‑mapping framework that builds a hierarchical wireless memory using sparse channel state information (CSI) without explicit location labels. It employs beam‑domain RSS as compact inputs, a dual‑scale extractor for angular and temporal dependencies, and a hybrid temporal encoder to infer physical anchors that index a structured radio map. The radio‑map embedding enables continuous updates and full‑CSI reconstruction, yielding over 30% better anchor recovery and more than 20% channel‑capacity gains in NLOS beam tracking compared to Kalman‑filter methods.

MambaCSP: Hybrid-Attention State Space Models for Hardware-Efficient Channel State Prediction

MambaCSP is a hybrid-attention state space model that replaces transformer-based backbones with a linear-time Mamba architecture for channel state prediction. By adding lightweight patch‑mixer attention layers, it captures long‑range dependencies while maintaining hardware efficiency. Experiments on MISO‑OFDM show 9‑12% higher accuracy, 3× faster throughput, 2.6× lower VRAM usage, and 2.9× faster inference compared to LLM‑based methods.

ChorusTIC: Training-Free Multivariate Time Series Classification via Chorus In-Context Learning

ChorusTIC is a training‑free foundation model for multivariate time‑series classification that works across heterogeneous channel configurations without updating task‑specific parameters. It uses Random Subchannel Slot Concatenation and a shared dual‑axis encoder to capture temporal and cross‑channel interactions, mapping variable channel counts into a fixed‑width representation. The model is pretrained on synthetic episodes and achieves strong performance on the UEA‑30 and UCR‑128 archives, handling both full‑context and low‑label scenarios without fitting a target‑specific classifier.

Structured Latent Space Modeling over Multi-Scale Temporal Patches for Multivariate Time Series Forecasting

arXiv:2607. 19404v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multivariate time series encode structural patterns that unfold across multiple temporal scales, yet most forecasting backbones treat learned representations as transient byproducts of prediction, leaving the organizational geometry of these patterns underexploited.
