arXiv:2603. 16141v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Autonomous Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) swarms are increasingly used as rapidly deployable aerial relays and sensing platforms, yet practical deployments must operate under partial observability and intermittent peer-to-peer connectivity.

AERIS is an offline policy improvement framework for multi-UAV integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) that learns from fixed flight logs using centralized training and decentralized execution. It introduces STAR-CRDT, an offline multi-agent RL algorithm that rectifies local actions and distills trusted improvements into decentralized actors, providing an offline-support policy improvement guarantee. Experiments demonstrate that STAR-CRDT boosts the main ISAC objective return by 29.3% and improves communication sum rate, sensing pass rate, and sensing margin while reducing collision-risk events by 54.2%.
The paper introduces a hierarchical hybrid architecture combining large language models (LLMs) and multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) to manage heterogeneous unmanned aerial systems in low‑altitude wireless networks (LAWNs). An outer LLM‑driven loop interprets service requirements and operator intent to reconfigure objectives and resource priorities, while an inner MARL loop executes decentralized policies under the updated game. A logistics‑monitoring case study demonstrates the framework’s ability to coordinate diverse services and adapt to changing conditions without retraining the MARL policies.

The paper proposes a hierarchical Open Radio Access Network (O‑RAN) control framework for tethered millimeter‑wave UAV‑mounted 5G base stations (gNBs). A Non‑Real‑Time RIC application jointly manages UAV placement and slice budgets, while a Near‑Real‑Time RIC application allocates per‑user resources using a permutation‑equivariant DeepSets Soft Actor‑Critic scheduler. This two‑level controller improves eMBB service‑level agreement satisfaction by up to 17 % and URLLC on‑time delivery by up to 42 % compared with conventional schedulers.

The paper introduces Hierarchical Reinforcement and Collective Learning (HRCL), a framework that combines multi‑agent reinforcement learning (MARL) with decentralized coordination. HRCL uses MARL at a high level to generate strategic guidance that limits the decision space for low‑level agents, enabling efficient short‑term coordination while considering long‑term effects. Experiments on synthetic, energy‑management, and drone‑swarm scenarios demonstrate faster convergence and significant reductions in system‑wide and individual costs compared to standalone MARL.
