Abstract:
Beamforming methods and systems include determining a tradeoff curve between scanning beamwidth and transmission beamwidth based on a channel distribution for a base station. A set of scanning beams is selected based on the tradeoff curve. Devices around the base station are scanned for using the set of scanning beams. A set of transmission beams is selected for communications with the devices based on information received during the scanning. The set of transmission beams are used for transmission with a beamforming transmitter.
Abstract:
Methods and systems for semantic multi-resolution transmission include encoding data using an encoder model that includes an initial encoding and heads. A first head of outputs a base encoding and a remainder of the heads output respective enhancement encodings. The base encoding and at least one of the enhancement encodings are decoded using a decoder model to retrieve the semantic meaning of the data and to generate a reconstructed output. A task is performed responsive to the reconstructed output and retrieved semantic meaning.
