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.

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.

The paper introduces GCNO, a physics‑based, variable‑rate neural operator that compresses wireless channel matrices by identifying a sample‑dependent set of dominant propagation paths instead of treating the matrix as an image. GCNO leverages receive‑transmit channel structure, a first‑order Taylor correction, and least‑squares recovery to encode path directions and strengths, and the base station reconstructs the channel analytically from these tuples. Experiments on three ray‑traced environments show GCNO outperforms neural feedback baselines in reconstruction accuracy for the same payload or achieves the same accuracy with lower payload, and it generalizes to unseen antenna counts without retraining.

Recent advances in machine learning have enabled training of wireless foundation models, which aim to support tasks such as channel estimation, beam prediction, and localization based on wireless signals. Existing wireless foundation models typically pretrain on channel tensors using masked reconstruction over subcarriers, antennas, or time but ignore the physical characteristics of wireless propagation.
GCNO: Gramian Chebyshev Neural Operator for Physics-Based Compression of Wireless Channels proposes a variable‑rate compressor that reports only the dominant propagation paths of a wireless channel instead of a full complex‑valued matrix. The method uses the channel’s receive‑transmit structure to locate paths, applies a first‑order Taylor correction for sub‑grid directions, and recovers path strengths via least squares, all trained without explicit path labels. Experiments on three ray‑traced environments show GCNO outperforms neural feedback baselines in reconstruction accuracy for the same payload or achieves the same accuracy with a lower payload, and it generalizes to unseen antenna counts without retraining.
