Modeling the Interference Generated from Car Base Stations towards Indoor Femto-cells

Abstract

In future wireless networks, a significant number of users will be vehicular. One promising solution to improve the capacity for these vehicular users is to employ moving relays or car base stations. The system forms cell inside the vehicle and then uses rooftop antenna for back-hauling to overcome the vehicular penetration loss. In this paper, we develop a model for aggregate interference distribution generated from moving/parked cars to indoor users in order to study whether indoor femto-cells can coexist on the same spectrum with vehicular communications. Since spectrum authorization for vehicular communications is open at moment, we consider two spectrum sharing scenarios (i) communication from mounted antennas on the roof of the vehicles to the infrastructure network utilizes same spectrum with indoor femto-cells (ii) in-vehicle communication utilizes same spectrum with indoor femto-cells while vehicular to infrastructure (V2I) communication is allocated at different spectrum. Based on our findings we suggest that V2I and indoor femto-cells should be allocated at different spectrum. The reason being that mounted roof-top antennas facing the indoor cells generate unacceptable interference levels. On the other hand, in-vehicle communication and indoor cells can share the spectrum thanks to the vehicle body isolation and the lower transmit power levels that can be used inside the vehicle.

Failure-Aware Iterative Learning of State-Control Invariant Sets

In this paper, we address the problem of computing maximal state-control invariant sets for deterministic linear systems using failing trajectories. We introduce the concept of state-control invariance, which extends control invariance from the state space to the joint state-control space. The maximal state-control invariant (MSCI) set simultaneously encodes the maximal control invariant set (MCI) and, for each state in the MCI, the set of control inputs that preserve invariance. We prove that the state projection of the MSCI is the MCI and the state-dependent sections of the MSCI are the admissible invariance-preserving inputs. Building on this framework, we develop a Failure-Aware Iterative Learning (FAIL) algorithm for deterministic linear time-invariant systems with polytopic constraints. The algorithm iteratively updates a constraint set in the state-control space by learning predecessor halfspaces from one-step failing state-input pairs, without knowing the dynamics. For each failure, FAIL learns the violated halfspaces of the predecessor of the constraint set by a regression on failing trajectories. We prove that the learned constraint set converges monotonically to the MSCI. Numerical experiments on a double integrator system validate the proposed approach.

Consensus and Synchronization of Multi-agent Systems over Finite Fields - Graph Topologies

This paper presents cooperative protocols for multi-agent systems with agents having a finite state-space. Both scalar single-integrator consensus and general LTI system synchronization are considered. Systems having a finite state-space describe agents with minimal memory capacity processing only a finite alphabet. Such systems are remarkably resilient to communication noise. The crucial problem, however, is to construct the admissible communication topology, which is NP-hard. We address this by efficiently exploring the subsets of admissible graph matrices and propose two new algorithms to generate them. Simulations validate the proposed approach.

Extracting Exact Lie Derivatives Without Backpropagation: A Dual Compiler for Neural Control Barrier Functions

A safety filter based on a neural control barrier function (CBF) deployed in an embedded control loop evaluates, at each control cycle, the trained network and its Lie derivatives along the system vector fields, under the memory and worst-case execution time (WCET) constraints that safety-oriented coding standards impose. Reverse-mode automatic differentiation, by which training frameworks obtain these derivatives, retains an activation cache whose size grows with the sum of the layer widths, and general-purpose differentiation runtimes allocate the computational graph from the heap at each call. This paper presents a compiler that evaluates a neural CBF and its exact Lie derivatives by forward-mode dual-number arithmetic. The compiler emits self-contained C++ code in which a single forward pass, without backpropagation, returns the barrier value and its exact Lie derivative along a given vector field; the drift and input Lie derivatives of the safety constraint are obtained from one such pass per vector field, and a second-order extension based on hyper-dual numbers returns the exact second-order Lie derivatives required by CBFs of relative degree two. The dual forward pass requires a workspace bounded by four times the widest layer, independent of network depth, and the emitted code contains no allocation call sites, so the absence of dynamic allocation is verifiable by inspection of the code. On an ESP32-S3 microcontroller, the compiled filter assembles the complete safety constraint in under one millisecond from statically allocated buffers of at most 768 bytes, and the maximum execution time over 1000 evaluations lies within 5% of the median in all three examples, whereas a heap-allocating reverse-mode baseline shows maxima 33% and 70% above its median in the two first-order examples. The compiler and the embedded experiments are released as open-source software.
