We present a novel Bayesian learning approach to outdoor radio heatmap construction utilizing deep Gaussian Process (GP). The proposed approach employs a two-layer hierarchy that is capable of modeling more complex input-output relations than the standard single-layer GP. Since deriving the exact model likelihood is challenging, a lower bound is optimized instead to find the optimal model parameters. Typically, inducing points are used to facilitate low-rank approximation of covariance (kernel) matrices for computation speedup. However, the inaccuracy induced by inducing points can accumulate when stacking multiple layers of GP which may degrade the performance of deep GP. Moreover, since inducing points need to be learned, having them at all layers of deep GP also incurs computational burden. To overcome the above challenges, in contrast to the canonical deep GP model, we use a modified architecture where a full standard GP resides in the first layer and inducing points are only introduced for the second layer. This modified architecture strikes a balance between model accuracy and training complexity. In the proposed model, the noise parameter of the first GP layer is also eliminated to improve the training efficiency as the noise parameter at the output of the second layer suffices to model the uncertainty in the output. The proposed approach is evaluated on real-world datasets, collected from the Platform for Open Wireless Data-driven Experimental Research (POWDER) located at the campus of the University of Utah. Experimental results show that the proposed approach can achieve superior performance on various training and testing data configurations compared to canonical deep GP schemes, DNN-based and GP-based methods.

The evolution toward sixth-generation (6G) wireless communications introduces unprecedented demands for ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC) in vehicle-to-everything (V2X) networks, where fast-moving vehicles and the use of high-frequency bands make it challenging to acquire the channel state information to maintain high-quality connectivity. Traditional methods for estimating channel coefficients rely on pilot symbols transmitted during each coherence interval; however, the combination of high mobility and high frequencies significantly reduces the coherence times, necessitating substantial bandwidth for pilot transmission. Consequently, these conventional approaches are becoming inadequate, potentially causing inefficient channel estimation and degraded throughput in such dynamic environments. This paper presents a novel multimodal collaborative perception framework for dynamic channel prediction in 6G V2X networks, integrating LiDAR data to enhance the accuracy and robustness of channel predictions. Our approach synergizes information from connected agents and infrastructure, enabling a more comprehensive understanding of the dynamic vehicular environment. A key innovation in our framework is the prediction horizon optimization (PHO) component, which dynamically adjusts the prediction interval based on real-time evaluations of channel conditions, ensuring that predictions remain relevant and accurate. Extensive simulations using the MVX (Multimodal V2X) high-fidelity co-simulation framework demonstrate the effectiveness of our solution. Compared to baseline methods—namely, a classical LS-LMMSE approach and a wireless-based model that solely relies on channel measurements—our framework achieves up to a 30.82% reduction in mean squared error (MSE) and a 32.76% increase in goodput. These gains underscore the efficiency of the PHO component in reducing prediction errors, maintaining low bit error rates, and meeting the stringent requirements of 6G V2X com

In this study, a one-port structure developed around a complementary split ring resonator (CSRR) is presented for the dielectric characterization of high-loss materials. A novel high-quality method is proposed based on impedance matching of the CSRR structure. Impedance matching was achieved by tuning the length of the transmission line between the CSRR cell and an open circuit. In this work, the fabricated device was tested using various concentrations of water-ethanol mixtures. Finally, the complex permittivity was extracted by determining the input impedance of the device at the frequency at which the minimum $\vert S_{11}\vert$ occurs in the frequency range from 2.175 GHz to 2.225 GHz. The results show excellent agreement with the complex permittivity obtained using a commercially available dielectric probe set.

The increasing frequency of extreme events and the integration of distributed energy resources (DERs) into modern grids have elevated the need for resilient and efficient critical load restoration strategies in distribution systems. However, the stochastic nature of renewable DERs, limited energy resource availability and the intricate nonlinearities inherent in complex grid control problem make the problem challenging. Although reinforcement learning (RL) and warm-start RL methods have shown promising results, their performance often falls short in rapidly adapting to new, unseen situations and typically requires exhaustive problem-specific tuning. To address these gaps, we propose a First-Order Meta-based RL (FOM-RL) algorithm within an online framework for adaptive and robust critical load restoration. By harnessing local DERs as the enabling technology, FOM-RL allows the RL agent to swiftly adapt to new unseen scenarios by leveraging previously acquired knowledge of different tasks. Experimental results provide evidence that proposed algorithm learns more efficiently and showcases generalization capabilities across diverse set of operational scenarios. Moreover, a rigorous theoretical analysis yields a tight sublinear regret bound, sensitive to temporal variability, with a task-averaged optimality gap bounded by ${\mathcal{O}}\left({\frac{{{V_M} + {D^ * }}}{{\sqrt T M}}}\right)$. These results suggest that optimality improves with task similarity and an increased number of tasks M, reaffirming the efficacy and scalability of the proposed approach in addressing the complexities of critical load restoration in distribution systems.

We explore Neural Radiance Fields (NeRFs) for synthesizing novel views of underwater structures. This learning-based approach relies on a sparse set of camera views to model the 3D geometry of underwater structures and scenes. Real-world underwater scenes exhibit significant temporal variations, introducing challenges in maintaining visual consistency. We investigate three NeRF implementations: 1) nerfacto, which rep-resents the baseline; 2) nerfacto with transient embed dings and 3) nerfacto with a robust loss, which are designed to deal with scene inconsistencies. We evaluate these implementations using datasets collected in 1) a controlled environment and 2) a real underwater setting. The modified implementations consistently outperform the original nerfacto across both datasets. The performance im-provements are particularly pronounced in the dataset obtained from the real underwater setting where scene inconsistencies are more prevalent. This underscores the importance of robustifying NeRF implementations to ensure consistent performance in the challenging underwater environments.

This paper considers an information theoretic model of secure integrated sensing and communication, represented as a wiretap channel with action dependent states. This model allows securing part of a transmitted message against a sensed target that eavesdrops the communication, while enabling transmitter actions to change the channel statistics. An exact secrecy-distortion region is given for a physically-degraded channel. A finite-length achievability region is established for the model using an output statistics of random binning method, giving an achievable bound for low-latency applications.
