Deep Learning Optimized Sparse Antenna Activation for Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface Assisted Communication
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) is a revolutionary technology for achieving high rate and large coverage in future wireless networks by smartly reflecting the signals with adjustable phase shifts. To design the reflection beamforming, accurate individual channel state information is required at the RIS, which is a challenge task due to the lack of signal processing ability in passive mode. In this paper, we add signal processing units for a few antennas at the RIS to partially acquire the channels and extrapolate them to the full channels, in which the active antenna selection is a key point but has not been addressed yet. We construct an active antenna selection network that utilizes the probabilistic sampling theory to select the optimal locations of these active antennas. With this active antenna selection network, we further design two deep learning-based schemes, i.e., the channel extrapolation scheme and the beam searching scheme. The former utilizes the selection network and a convolutional neural network to extrapolate the full channels from the partial channels, while the latter adopts a fully-connected neural network to achieve the direct mapping from the partial channels to the optimal beamforming vector with maximal transmission rate. Simulation results show that the proposed optimal antenna selection outperforms the trivial uniform antenna selection, and the performance of beam searching is more stable than that of channel extrapolation with fewer active antennas.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
