A Measurement Report Data-Driven Framework for Localized Statistical Channel Modeling

Abstract

Localized statistical channel modeling (LSCM) is crucial for effective performance evaluation in digital twin-assisted network optimization. Solely relying on the multi-beam reference signal receiving power (RSRP), LSCM aims to model the localized statistical propagation environment by estimating the channel angular power spectrum (APS). However, existing methods rely heavily on drive test data with high collection costs and limited spatial coverage. In this paper, we propose a measurement report (MR) data-driven framework for LSCM, exploiting the low-cost and extensive collection of MR data. The framework comprises two novel modules. The MR localization module addresses the issue of missing locations in MR data by introducing a semi-supervised method based on hypergraph neural networks, which exploits multi-modal information via distance-aware hypergraph modeling and hypergraph convolution for location extraction. To enhance the computational efficiency and solution robustness, LSCM operates at the grid level. Compared to independently constructing geographically uniform grids and estimating channel APS, the joint grid construction and channel APS estimation module enhances robustness in complex environments with spatially non-uniform data by exploiting their correlation. This module alternately optimizes grid partitioning and APS estimation using clustering and improved sparse recovery for the ill-conditioned measurement matrix and incomplete observations. Through comprehensive experiments on a real-world MR dataset, we demonstrate the superior performance and robustness of our framework in localization and channel modeling.

From Continuous sEMG Signals to Discrete Muscle State Tokens: A Robust and Interpretable Representation Framework

Surface electromyography (sEMG) signals exhibit substantial inter-subject variability and are highly susceptible to noise, posing challenges for robust and interpretable decoding. To address these limitations, we propose a discrete representation of sEMG signals based on a physiology-informed tokenization framework. The method employs a sliding window aligned with the minimal muscle contraction cycle to isolate individual muscle activation events. From each window, ten time-frequency features, including root mean square (RMS) and median frequency (MDF), are extracted, and K-means clustering is applied to group segments into representative muscle-state tokens. We also introduce a large-scale benchmark dataset, ActionEMG-43, comprising 43 diverse actions and sEMG recordings from 16 major muscle groups across the body. Based on this dataset, we conduct extensive evaluations to assess the inter-subject consistency, representation capacity, and interpretability of the proposed sEMG tokens. Our results show that the token representation exhibits high inter-subject consistency (Cohen's Kappa = 0.82+-0.09), indicating that the learned tokens capture consistent and subject-independent muscle activation patterns. In action recognition tasks, models using sEMG tokens achieve Top-1 accuracies of 75.5% with ViT and 67.9% with SVM, outperforming raw-signal baselines (72.8% and 64.4%, respectively), despite a 96% reduction in input dimensionality. In movement quality assessment, the tokens intuitively reveal patterns of muscle underactivation and compensatory activation, offering interpretable insights into neuromuscular control. Together, these findings highlight the effectiveness of tokenized sEMG representations as a compact, generalizable, and physiologically meaningful feature space for applications in rehabilitation, human-machine interaction, and motor function analysis.

Adaptive 3D-RoPE: Physics-Aligned Rotary Positional Encoding for Wireless Foundation Models

Wireless foundation models (WFMs) have emerged as a promising paradigm for unified channel state information (CSI) acquisition across diverse tasks in sixth-generation (6G) networks. Although WFMs significantly outperform task-specific small models, their zero-shot cross-scenario generalization still remains limited for real-world applications. Existing positional embeddings, the sole interface through which self-attention perceives the temporal-frequency-antenna 3D physical coordinates of CSI, fail to capture the highly dynamic and axis-dependent coherence inherent in wireless channels. This paper proposes Adaptive 3D-RoPE, a channel-driven 3D rotary positional embedding framework for WFMs to dynamically align the 3D positional embeddings with the instantaneous coherence state of heterogeneous CSI. The design proceeds in three stages: first, an axis-wise learnable rotary prior independently preserves the temporal, frequency, and antenna coordinate structures; second, a feature-guided rotary modulation module maps the feature-wise standard deviation of visible CSI tokens to compact, sample-adaptive scales; third, identical coordinate offsets induce dynamically adjusted query-key interactions tailored to the instantaneous channel state. Extensive experiments on both simulated and measured datasets validate the effectiveness of Adaptive 3D-RoPE across three complementary dimensions. It reduces NMSE by 10.14, 6.25, and 4.61 dB relative to baselines under antenna, temporal, and frequency scaling, respectively. It transfers effectively to real-world measured CSI and remains robust under imperfect CSI. Finally, it transfers to the independently designed LWM backbone and beam-prediction task, improving zero-shot Top-1 accuracy by 8.03 percentage points.

Data driven approach for Outdoor Channel Prediction in 5G and Beyond

An evolution of Wireless Communications towards 5G and beyond provides improved user experience in terms of quality of services. Understanding and estimating Channel information plays crucial role in providing better user experience. Traditional methods of channel estimation involves periodically sending pilots (known signals), estimating channel and send back estimated channel information to the BS which increases computational complexity and communication complexity. Hence, we focus on data driven approach for channel estimation. In this work, we explore a channel estimation mechanism at 7GHz frequency band for a given user location. This work involves data generation using Ray tracing mechanism and Machine learning model training that contains feature variables such as transmitter location, user location and target variable as channel coefficient . We explored Support Vector Regression, K-nearest neighbor (KNN), Random Forest, XGBoost and MLP. We found via simulations that XG Boost and proposed MLP performs better than Support Vector Regression, KNN and Random forest regression.
