Deep neural networks (DNNs) have made significant strides in tackling challenging tasks in wireless systems, especially when an accurate wireless model is not available. However, when available data is limited, traditional DNNs often yield subpar results due to underfitting. At the same time, large language models (LLMs) exemplified by GPT-3, have remarkably showcased their capabilities across a broad range of natural language processing *** whether and how LLMs can benefit challenging non-language tasks in wireless systems is *** this work, we propose to leverage the in-context learning ability (a.k.a. prompting) of LLMs to solve wireless tasks in the low data regime without any training or fine-tuning, unlike DNNs which require training. We further demonstrate that the performance of LLMs varies significantly when employed with different prompt templates. To solve this issue, we employ the latest LLM calibration methods. Our results reveal that using LLMs via ICL methods generally outperforms traditional DNNs on the symbol demodulation task and yields highly confident predictions when coupled with calibration techniques.

UAV-based inspections represent a promising solution to contactless civil infrastructure condition assessment, especially bridges. In this context, depth estimation is crucial as it helps predict the distance to objects, plan flight trajectories, and avoid obstacles. Recently, learning-based methods made significant progress in monocular depth estimation. However, supervised approaches require a large amount of annotated depth data which remains challenging to collect. As an alternative, researchers have been investigating self-supervised learning, where the depth estimation network is trained by projecting a view to nearby views and minimizing the re-projection photometric loss. However, current methods lack accuracy and robustness since they do not exploit structural information, leading to inaccurate spatial representations and surface discontinuities. In addition, monocular depth estimation suffers from scale ambiguity, and external or prior information is needed for scale recovery. This work sought to overcome these issues by adapting the standard joint network of estimating depth and pose based on a self-learned depth prediction network from monocular videos. The proposed method introduces a soft attention mechanism and a recurrent block. The attention mechanism guides the neural network’s attention to the global structures and local attributes and recovers the spatial relationship of visual features, whereas the recurrent block leverages sequence frames to capture temporal information in addition to spatial information. Our experiments and ablation study on AeroBridge dataset demonstrate that these modifications efficiently capture spatio-temporal information and generate competitive qualitative and quantitative results compared to state-of-the-art methods confirming the practical applicability of our design in inspection tasks.

Robotic Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing (WAAM) is a metal additive manufacturing technology offering flexible 3D printing while ensuring high-quality near-net-shape final parts. However, WAAM also suffers from geometric imprecision, especially for low-melting-point metals such as aluminum alloys. In this article, we present a multi-robot framework for WAAM process monitoring and control. We consider a three-robot setup: a 6-DoF welding robot, a 2-DoF trunnion platform, and a 6-DoF sensing robot with a wrist-mounted laser line scanner measuring the printed part height profile. The welding parameters, including the wire feed rate, are held constant based on the materials used, so the control input is the robot path speed. The measured output is the part height profile. The planning phase decomposes the target shape into slices of uniform height. During runtime, the sensing robot scans each printed layer, and the robot path speed for the next layer is adjusted based on the deviation from the desired profile. The adjustment is based on an identified model correlating the path speed to changes in height. The control architecture coordinates the synchronous motion and data acquisition between all robots and sensors. Using a three-robot WAAM testbed, we demonstrate significant improvements of the closed-loop scan-n-print approach over the current open loop result on both a flat wall and a more complex turbine blade shape.

When dealing with millimeter wave communications, one way to mitigate the path loss contribution involves the use of beam steering and beamforming techniques, which allow to improve the gain of the antenna system. Particularly interesting is the case of adaptive beamformers, which are able to steer the antenna radiation pattern towards the position of a given target in real-time. In this work, we propose a novel architecture for adaptive beam steering based on real-time Angle-of-Arrival (AoA) estimation. The phase shift is introduced in the Local Oscillator (LO) path thanks to a modified DDS-PLL structure. The main equations are presented, along with a validation campaign involving Hardware-in-the-Loop (HiL) simulations.
