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.

Low-Latency Task-Oriented Image Transmission with Opportunistic Spectrum Access

arXiv:2607. 01921v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Communication systems designed for reliable data reconstruction, rather than task-oriented communication, typically rely on separate source and channel coding and incur high latency under limited spectrum availability and fading channels.

Ada-TokenCom: Rate-Adaptive Token Communications via Large-Model-Driven Token Compression and Generation

Ada-TokenCom is a rate‑adaptive token communication framework that uses large autoregressive models to compress and transmit tokens efficiently. It combines next‑token prediction with arithmetic coding, sending only the most informative tokens and letting the receiver generate the rest. A Lyapunov‑based algorithm dynamically adjusts compression and modulation to match changing network conditions, and simulations show it outperforms existing digital and deep joint source‑channel coding baselines.

Semantic CSI Feedback for Beam Selection: When Task-Aware Embeddings from Sparse Pilots Outperform Full-Bandwidth Reconstruction

The paper introduces a semantic communication approach for CSI feedback in FDD massive MIMO, where the UE sends a learned embedding optimized for beam selection rather than reconstructing the full channel. Experiments show that an 8‑dimensional embedding derived from just 43 NR CSI‑RS pilots in the angular‑delay domain achieves the best beam prediction accuracy, surpassing methods that use the entire 512‑subcarrier channel. This demonstrates that beam‑relevant information is inherently low‑dimensional, allowing the semantic encoder to discard irrelevant details and transmit only the intent needed for beam selection.

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.

GVCC: Zero-Shot Video Compression via Codebook-Driven Stochastic Rectified Flow

The paper introduces GVCC, a zero‑shot video compression framework that uses a pretrained generative video model as the decoder. GVCC transforms deterministic rectified‑flow samplers into stochastic processes, enabling the transmission of compressed information through per‑step stochastic innovations. The authors evaluate three GVCC variants—Text‑to‑Video, Image‑to‑Video, and First‑Last‑Frame‑to‑Video—on the UVG dataset, reporting perceptual, fidelity, and temporal metrics without claiming global rate‑distortion gains.
