Abstract

This study investigates the feasibility of coexistence between an incumbent fixed service (FS) and a 6G network in the same location under spectrum sharing. For coexistence to be possible, a protection criterion must be met. Regulatory agencies define this criterion as the ratio of inter-network interference to noise at the FS receiver. Simulation results indicate that this coexistence is not possible without the implementation of some interference mitigation strategy. To this end, a distance-based protection zoning and two user selection strategies were investigated from the fixed service perspective, assuming the 6G network is in uplink. The results indicate that meeting the protection criterion can be achieved when only few users in uplink are selected, while still providing optimistic capacity performance for such selected users in the shared band.

Harnessing Chaotic Signals for Wireless Information and Power Transfer

Chaotic dynamical systems have attracted considerable attention due to their inherent randomness and high sensitivity to initial conditions, which makes them ideal for secure wireless communications. Beyond security, these same characteristics also make chaotic signals particularly effective for wireless power transfer (WPT) applications. On the other hand, connectivity along with self-sustainability are the two cornerstones of the upcoming sixth generation (6G) standard for radio communications. Consequently, with the massive increase in wireless devices and sensors, the concept of self-sustainable wireless networks is becoming more relevant. The aspect of WPT to the widely spread wireless devices and simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) among these devices will play a crucial role in the 6G communication systems. In this context, it has been experimentally observed that chaotic signals result in better WPT performance as compared to the existing benchmark schemes. Hence, in this paper, we characterize the generalized WPT performance of the multi-dimensional chaotic signals and present the use case of the Lorenz and the Henon chaotic systems. Moreover, we provide a novel differential chaos shift keying (DCSK)-based WPT receiver architecture ideal for enhanced energy harvesting (EH). Furthermore, we propose DCSK-based transmit waveform designs for multi-antenna SWIPT architectures and investigate the impact of the rate-energy trade-off. Our goal is to explore these aspects of the chaotic signals and discuss their relevance in the context of both WPT and SWIPT.

Semantic Feature Channel Optimization: A Unified Framework for Analog and Digital Semantic Communications

Semantic communication (SC) aims to improve communication efficiency by transmitting only task-relevant information, termed semantic features (SFs). Most existing SC frameworks achieve this by optimizing the encoder and decoder while treating the channel between them as fixed. In this paper, we introduce a new perspective by explicitly modeling the entire process from the encoder output to the decoder input as an SF channel, resulting in an encoder-SF channel-decoder pipeline. We observe that the SF channel is configurable through transceiver operations, such as power allocation, thereby providing an additional degree of freedom for improving task performance. Inspired by this, we formulate a joint optimization problem for the encoder, SF channel, and decoder under a mutual information constraint between the transmitted and reconstructed SFs. To provide analytical insight, we derive the optimal SF channel in closed form for an analytically tractable setting. Based on this formulation, we develop a unified semantic feature channel optimization framework applicable to both analog and digital SC systems. To realize the SF channel in general communication systems, we further propose a physical-layer calibration strategy that aligns the actual SF channel with the trained one. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed framework consistently improves task performance across various communication environments.

Grey-Box Bayesian Optimization for ISAC in Fluid-Antenna Assisted Air-Ground Network

Fluid antenna systems (FAS) provide additional spatial diversity for integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) through joint port selection and precoding. \rev{However, existing designs commonly assume readily available channel state information, neglect residual self-interference, and combine communication and sensing into a single weighted objective. The resulting channel acquisition overhead, unmodeled residual self-interference, and limited characterization of the Pareto trade-off are critical obstacles to implementing ISAC in fluid-antenna-assisted air-ground networks.} \rev{To address these issues, we first formulate the joint design as a grey-box multi-objective optimization problem. This formulation retains the available analytical system mapping while treating the configuration-dependent channel and interference constituents as unknown, and directly represents the communication-sensing Pareto trade-off without predefined scalarization.} We then propose a tailored grey-box multi-objective Bayesian optimization (G-MOBO) method to solve the resulting high-dimensional problem. Specifically, G-MOBO learns the unknown constituents from performance feedback, propagates their predictive distributions through the known mapping, employs expected hypervolume improvement (EHI) to explore the Pareto frontier, and uses an adaptive trust region (TR) to localize the search. A temporal adaptation strategy is further incorporated to track the drifting Pareto frontier in time-varying environments. \rev{The theoretical analysis characterizes the sample efficiency of grey-box modeling and localized TR design via cumulative hypervolume regret.} Simulations demonstrate faster convergence, improved Pareto-frontier quality, and robust dynamic tracking compared with the considered baselines.
