WiSDoM: Wireless Sparse Decision Transformer with Mixture-of-Experts for Multi-Task Mobile Network Optimization

Abstract

Emerging 6G wireless networks are expected to operate across diverse deployment scenarios, where variations in network topology, user mobility, traffic demand, and radio conditions challenge the scalability of conventional radio resource management (RRM). While offline reinforcement learning (RL) methods have demonstrated strong decision-making capabilities, learning a single policy that performs consistently across heterogeneous wireless environments remains difficult due to conflicting optimization objectives and limited model specialization. These challenges become particularly pronounced in coordinated multipoint (CoMP) transmission, where selecting the optimal serving-cell combination requires sequential decision-making under evolving network conditions. This paper presents the Wireless Sparse Decision Transformer with Mixture of Experts (WiSDoM), a sparse multi-task offline RL framework for adaptive multi-cell selection. WiSDoM combines Decision Transformers (DTs) with a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture that dynamically activates specialized experts according to task characteristics. This MoE mechanism improves model capacity without proportionally increasing inference cost, mitigates negative transfer, and enables expert specialization across tasks. WiSDoM is trained jointly on diverse network configurations spanning multiple base station and user equipment densities, mobility levels, and scheduler policies. Experimental results show that WiSDoM consistently outperforms heuristic methods, single-task models, and conventional multi-task DTs, improving quality of experience (QoE) by up to 55% while activating approximately one-third of the parameters of its dense counterpart during inference. Furthermore, WiSDoM exhibits strong task generalization and efficiently adapts to unseen wireless scenarios through few-shot prompting without retraining or fine-tuning.

Real-Time Neuromorphic Spectrum Intelligence Simulator

We present the Real-Time Neuromorphic Spectrum Intelligence Simulator (RT-NuSIS), a modular framework to study spiking neural network (SNN) and memristor-inspired agents for dynamic spectrum access under constrained energy budgets and adversarial conditions. RT-NuSIS couples leaky integrate-and-fire neuronal dynamics, memristive synaptic models, physics-informed energy-harvesting models (triboelectric and RF), and adversary models including jamming and Byzantine behavior. We formalize the simulator mathematically, prove boundedness, present a mean-field adversary threshold, analyze per-step complexity, and provide a reproducible benchmark harness for energy-per-inference, latency, and robustness metrics. The codebase is modular, deterministic by seed, and designed for large-scale event-driven simulations.

Channel-Adaptive Edge AI: Maximizing Inference Throughput by Adapting Computational Complexity to Channel States

\emph{Integrated communication and computation} (IC$^2$) has emerged as a new paradigm for enabling efficient edge inference in sixth-generation (6G) networks. However, the design of IC$^2$ technologies is hindered by the lack of a tractable theoretical framework for characterizing \emph{end-to-end} (E2E) inference performance. The metric is highly complicated as it needs to account for both channel distortion and artificial intelligence (AI) model architecture and computational complexity. In this work, we address this challenge by developing a tractable analytical model for E2E inference accuracy and leveraging it to design a \emph{channel-adaptive AI} algorithm that maximizes inference throughput, referred to as the edge processing rate (EPR), under latency and accuracy constraints. Specifically, we consider an edge inference system in which a server deploys a backbone model with early exit, which enables flexible computational complexity, to perform inference on data features transmitted by a mobile device. The proposed accuracy model characterizes high-dimensional feature distributions in the angular domain using a Mixture of von Mises (MvM) distribution. This leads to a desired closed-form expression for inference accuracy as a function of quantization bit-width and model traversal depth, which represents channel distortion and computational complexity, respectively. Building upon this accuracy model, we formulate and solve the EPR maximization problem under joint latency and accuracy constraints, leading to a channel-adaptive AI algorithm that achieves full IC$^2$ integration. The proposed algorithm jointly adapts transmit-side feature compression and receive-side model complexity according to channel conditions to maximize overall efficiency and inference throughput. Experimental results demonstrate its superior performance as compared with fixed-complexity counterparts.

Off the Normal Path: Learning Spatial Density Models of Node Mobility

We consider the problem of learning models of spatial density functions, representing the steady-state density of mobile nodes moving on a two-dimensional terrain. Deriving such models can assist in network design and optimization problems, e.g., by accelerating the computation of the density function during a parameter sweep. We address the question of applicability of off-the-shelf mixture density network models and of, two varieties of, normalizing flows for the description of mobile node density over a disk. We introduce the use of Möbius distributions to retain symmetric spatial relations. Our results indicate that mixtures of Möbius distributions provide interpretable, parsimonious models for the studied steady state density distributions, that match or outperform the alternatives.
