Abstract

This paper explores the application of movable antenna (MA), a cutting-edge technology with the capability of altering antenna positions, in a symbiotic radio (SR) system enabled by reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS). The goal is to fully exploit the capabilities of both MA and RIS, constructing a better transmission environment for the co-existing primary and secondary transmission systems. For both parasitic SR (PSR) and commensal SR (CSR) scenarios with the channel uncertainties experienced by all transmission links, we design a robust transmission scheme with the goal of maximizing the primary rate while ensuring the secondary transmission quality. To address the maximization problem with thorny non-convex characteristics, we propose an alternating optimization framework that utilizes the General S-Procedure, General Sign-Definiteness Principle, successive convex approximation (SCA), and simulated annealing (SA) improved particle swarm optimization (SA-PSO) algorithms. Numerical results validate that the CSR scenario significantly outperforms the PSR scenario in terms of primary rate, and also show that compared to the fixed-position antenna scheme, the proposed MA scheme can increase the primary rate by 1.62 bps/Hz and 2.37 bps/Hz for the PSR and CSR scenarios, respectively.

Low-Interference N-Continuous OFDM via Optimized Time-Domain Smoothing

A novel basis signal optimization method is proposed for reducing the interference in the N-continuous orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (NC-OFDM) system. Compared to conventional NC-OFDM, the proposed scheme is capable of improving the transmission performance while maintaining an identical sidelobe suppression performance imposed by the linear combination of two groups of basis signals. Our performance results demonstrate that with a low-complexity overhead, the proposed scheme is capable of striking a better trade-off among the bit error rate (BER), complexity, and the sidelobe suppression performance compared to its conventional counterparts.

Self-Localizing MIMO Beam Mapping with Continuously Evolving Channel Memory

Machine learning has greatly advanced data-driven channel modeling and resource optimization. However, most existing methods require accurately location-labeled datasets, which are costly to collect and maintain in dynamic environments. This paper develops a self-localizing multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) beam map framework that constructs a hierarchical wireless memory from highly sparse channel state information (CSI) measurements without explicit location labels. To reduce acquisition and processing overhead, we use beamdomain received signal strength (RSS) as compact inputs and theoretically show that they enable asymptotically unbiased spatial signature estimation. A dual-scale extractor captures intrasnapshot angular dependencies and inter-sample correlations for incomplete observations, and a hybrid temporal encoder is designed to consolidate recent CSI into stable short-term context for physical anchor inference. The inferred anchors spatially index a physically structured radio map embedding that stores long-term channel knowledge, which conditions a diffusion decoder for location-consistent full CSI reconstruction. Such a radio map embedding provides a persistent wireless knowledge representation that can be continuously updated and reused without full CSI acquisition. Experiments show that the proposed framework improves physical-anchor recovery accuracy by over 30% under sparse measurements and achieves more than 20% channel-capacity gain in non-line-of-sight (NLOS) beam tracking over Kalman-filter-based methods.

Few-Shot Specific Emitter Identification via Integrated Complex Variational Mode Decomposition and Spatial Attention Transfer

Specific emitter identification (SEI) utilizes passive hardware characteristics to authenticate transmitters, providing a robust physical-layer security solution. However, most deep-learning-based methods rely on extensive data or require prior information, which poses challenges in real-world scenarios with limited labeled data. We propose an integrated complex variational mode decomposition algorithm that decomposes and reconstructs complex-valued signals to approximate the original transmitted signals, thereby enabling more accurate feature extraction. We further utilize a temporal convolutional network to effectively model the sequential signal characteristics, and introduce a spatial attention mechanism to adaptively weight informative signal segments, significantly enhancing identification performance. Additionally, the branch network allows leveraging pre-trained weights from other data while reducing the need for auxiliary datasets. Ablation experiments on the simulated data demonstrate the effectiveness of each component of the model. An accuracy comparison on a public dataset reveals that our method achieves 96% accuracy using only 10 symbols without requiring any prior knowledge.
