Hierarchical Resource Optimization in Multi-UAV RIS-Assisted ISAC Networks With Uplink NOMA
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper investigates a novel spectral-efficient design for a multi-Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) system assisted by Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS) within the emerging Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC) framework. The proposed system leverages uplink Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) and RIS-enhanced multi-UAV collaboration to jointly serve mobile users and perform target sensing. A hierarchical double-timescale solution is introduced, combining an adaptive Affinity Propagation Clustering (APC) approach for long-term UAV deployment and user-target association, with a short-term iterative algorithm for optimizing user transmit power, UAV beamforming, and RIS phase shifts. To tackle the non-convex optimization problem, a solution is proposed, leveraging Lagrangian dual transform, fractional programming, and minorization methods. Simulation results validate the effectiveness of the proposed approach, demonstrating significant improvements in both communication data rates and sensing information rates compared to existing benchmarks.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 teacher head, not a consensus.
