The paper presents a large‑scale, 3GPP TR 38.901‑compliant dataset for RIS‑aided millimeter‑wave B5G networks, covering 20 deployment variants with diverse user densities, fading, and blockage conditions. Each sample includes oracle RIS phase configurations from a brute‑force search, along with full CSI, per‑link channel decomposition, optimal phase matrices, and CQI labels, enabling a wide range of machine‑learning tasks. The authors also introduce a novel CSI‑to‑CQI mapping as a benchmark for scalable link‑quality prediction and evaluate it against state‑of‑the‑art models under various conditions.

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.

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.

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.

CRFCAN is a complex‑valued residual FFT convolutional attention network that jointly estimates channel and phase noise in sub‑THz OFDM systems. It embeds FFT and inverse FFT modules within residual groups to enable iterative feature interaction across time and frequency domains, and includes dedicated residual blocks for complex feature extraction and multiplicative phase‑distortion modeling. Simulation results show that CRFCAN outperforms conventional algorithms and state‑of‑the‑art deep learning models in NMSE and BER, while offering single‑shot, fixed‑complexity inference and good generalization to unseen phase‑noise models.

The paper introduces Radio‑Frequency Convolutional Neural Networks (RF‑CNNs), which repurpose the frequency mixer in wireless radios to perform convolutional neural network inference directly on edge devices. By mapping multi‑channel convolutions onto frequency tones, the passive mixer can execute the entire operation in a single pass, enabling deep CNNs with up to 26.4 million parameters and nine layers to run on smartphones, wearables, and drones. Experimental results show near full‑precision performance while reducing energy consumption to 0.72 fJ per multiply‑accumulate—two orders of magnitude lower than adding a digital processor.
