WirelessAgent: A Unified Agent Design for General Wireless Resource Allocation Problem without Current Channel State Information

This paper investigates the agent design for solving the wireless resource allocation problem without sufficient channel state information (CSI), which cannot be effectively solved via conventional method. In the considered wireless agent design, we provide the general sense-repair-decide-act workflow, which can be used to intelligently solve general wireless resource allocation problem. A multi-objective optimization problem is formulated to adaptively satisfy different user requirements including both spectrum and energy efficiency. This work addresses the challenge of incomplete CSI for multiple optimization objectives. To solve this problem, we use an artificial intelligence (AI) model to predict missing channel data and construct an agent on the Coze platform, allowing the network operators to optimize multiple objectives through natural language conversations. To tackle the resource scheduling under different objectives, we develop adaptive algorithms. Simulation results validate the effectiveness of our proposed design, demonstrating that the proposed AI method reduces the root mean square error by approximately up to 67\% compared to the traditional approach. Moreover, the data-driven scheduling balances system performance compared to conventional baseline approaches.

Beyond Covariance: Generative Spatial Correlation Modeling and Channel Interpolation for Fluid Antenna Systems

Fluid antenna systems (FAS) enable unprecedented spatial diversity within a compact form factor by flexibly switching among high-density antenna ports. To activate this capability, channel state information (CSI) over the ports is required, which implies high estimation overhead because the number of ports is usually very large. Conventional estimation schemes tend to first estimate the CSI for a small number of ports and then infer the CSI for the remaining antenna ports by interpolation exploiting correlation characteristics. However, existing correlation-based techniques lack generalization ability, and the fundamental limits of interpolating the CSI from sparse observations remain poorly understood. This paper adopts a generative modeling framework for characterizing the channel correlation among the FAS ports that departs fundamentally from covariance-descriptive models. Specifically, we represent the spatially sampled channel as a $p$th-order autoregressive (AR) Gauss-Markov process, which provides a principled and tunable tradeoff between model complexity and approximation accuracy via the AR order. In so doing, we can characterize the limits of channel interpolation by deriving the globally optimal minimum mean-square error (MMSE) estimator and establishing a tight lower bound on the minimum number of observations required to meet a prescribed reconstruction error. To reduce the complexity of MMSE estimation, we then exploit the state-space structure due to the ${\rm AR}(p)$ model and develop a Kalman filtering/smoothing-based interpolation algorithm. The resulting method attains the optimal MMSE performance with strictly linear complexity $\mathcal{O}(N)$ with $N$ denoting the number of ports, resulting in a scalable, efficient, and theoretically grounded framework for practical FAS channel reconstruction.

Fluid Antennas Meet Rate-Splitting Multiple Access: A New Path Forward for 6G Networks

Future sixth-generation (6G) networks require high spectral efficiency (SE), massive connectivity, and stringent reliability under imperfect channel state information at the transmitter. Rate-splitting multiple access (RSMA) addresses part of this challenge by flexibly managing interference through common and private message streams, while fluid antenna systems (FAS) offer low-cost spatial diversity by dynamically reconfiguring antenna positions within a compact aperture. In this paper, we first classify FAS-enabled multiple access systems from the perspectives of FAS deployment, objectives, and antenna configuration, along with some comparisons with benchmark schemes, thereby exhibiting the inherent efficiency of FAS-RSMA. Moreover, we reveal the mutually enhancing mechanism between FAS and RSMA: FAS strengthens the weakest effective link and improves the beamforming design in RSMA, whereas RSMA turns FAS-induced spatial diversity into robust interference management under diverse channel conditions. In addition, we identify representative 6G scenarios and highlight major research challenges in joint beamforming-antenna position design, channel estimation, and hardware design. Furthermore, case studies quantify the gains of FAS-RSMA over the fixed-position antenna (FPA) system with RSMA and NOMA baselines, which validates that FAS-RSMA is a strong candidate for interference-limited access in 6G systems.

Quantum Radar for ISAC: Sum-Rate Optimization

Integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) is emerging as a key enabler for spectrum-efficient and hardware-converged wireless networks. However, classical radar systems within ISAC architectures face fundamental limitations under low signal power and high-noise conditions. This paper proposes a novel framework that embeds quantum illumination radar into a base station to simultaneously support full-duplex classical communication and quantum-enhanced target detection. The resulting integrated quantum sensing and classical communication (IQSCC) system is optimized via a sum-rate maximization formulation subject to radar sensing constraints. The non-convex joint optimization of transmit power and beamforming vectors is tackled using the successive convex approximation technique. Furthermore, we derive performance bounds for classical and quantum radar protocols under the statistical detection theory, highlighting the quantum advantage in low signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio regimes. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed IQSCC system achieves a higher communication throughput than the conventional ISAC baseline while satisfying the sensing requirement.

LLM-enabled Antenna Partitioning and Beamforming Optimization for Segmented Pinching

Integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) requires spatial architectures that can flexibly balance data transmission and environment sensing. Segmented pinching antenna-assisted ISAC provides such flexibility by allowing different waveguide segments to be dynamically configured for transmission and reception. However, its design involves the joint optimization of antenna deployment, segment partitioning, and beamforming under coupled communication and sensing constraints, which becomes particularly challenging when the numbers of communication users and sensing targets vary across scenarios. To endow the system with stronger adaptability to changing user and target configurations, we propose a general learning framework for segmented pinching antenna-assisted ISAC systems. Specifically, a channel state information (CSI)-induced self-graph is constructed to produce permutation-invariant representations of user-target interactions, and the resulting features are processed by a large language model (LLM) backbone with two task-specific heads for jointly predicting antenna deployment, segment partitioning, and ISAC beamforming. In addition, a user count transfer mechanism is developed to examine whether the learned deployment policy is site-specific and reusable under changed user configurations. Simulation results show that the proposed framework achieves higher communication rates while maintaining reliable sensing accuracy. Moreover, the learned deployment policy remains highly stable when transferring to other user counts, which reduces the training cost from full model retraining to beamforming head adaption.

Antenna Elements' Trajectory Optimization for Throughput Maximization in Continuous-Trajectory Fluid Antenna-Aided Wireless Communications

Fluid antenna (FA) systems offer novel spatial degrees of freedom (DoFs) with the potential for significant performance gains. Compared to existing works focusing solely on optimizing FA positions at discrete time instants, we introduce the concept of continuous-trajectory fluid antenna (CTFA), which explicitly considers the antenna element's movement trajectory across continuous time intervals and incorporates the inherent kinematic constraints present in practical FA implementations. Accordingly, we formulate the total throughput maximization problem in CTFA-aided wireless communication systems, addressing the joint optimization of continuous antenna trajectories in conjunction with the transmit covariance matrices under kinematic constraints. To effectively solve this non-convex problem with highly coupled optimization variables, we develop an iterative algorithm based on block coordinate descent (BCD) and majorization-minimization (MM) principles with the aid of the weighted minimum mean square error (WMMSE) method. Finally, numerical results are presented to validate the efficacy of the proposed algorithms and to quantify the substantial total throughput advantages afforded by the conceived CTFA-aided system compared to conventional fixed-position antenna (FPA) benchmarks and alternative approaches employing simplified trajectories.

Enormous Fluid Antenna Systems (E-FAS) under Correlated Surface-Wave Leakage: Physical Layer Security

Enormous fluid antenna systems (E-FAS) have recently emerged as a surface-wave (SW)-enabled architecture that can induce controllable large-scale channel gains through guided electromagnetic routing. This paper develops a secrecy analysis framework for E-FAS-assisted downlink transmission with practical pilot-based channel estimation. We consider a multiple-input single-output (MISO) wiretap setting in which the base station (BS) performs minimum mean-square-error (MMSE) channel estimation and adopts maximum-ratio transmission (MRT) with artificial noise (AN). To capture the leakage of SW routing in EFAS, we introduce a correlated SW-leakage model that accounts for statistical coupling between the legitimate and eavesdropper channels caused by partially overlapping SW propagation paths. Exploiting the two-timescale nature-with slowly varying routing gain and small-scale block fading, we then derive a closed-form conditional expression for the secrecy outage probability (SOP) and a tractable characterization of the ergodic secrecy rate (ESR) in the presence of correlated quadratic forms. Our analysis yields three key insights: (i) secrecy collapses at high transmit power if and only if AN is not present, whereas any strictly positive AN can prevent asymptotic collapse; (ii) the optimal data-AN power split is achieved by a strictly interior solution; and (iii) routing gain improves both the received signal strength and the channelestimation quality, creating a nonlinear coupling that raises the signal-to-interference plus noise ratio (SINR) ceiling in the high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regime, and disperses secrecy across routing states. Numerical results indicate that E-FAS markedly enlarges the secure operating region significantly when compared with conventional space-wave transmission.

Fluid Antennas Meet Intelligent Surfaces: Security Analysis of NOMA Systems Under Hardware Impairments

The revolutionary convergence of fluid antenna systems (FAS) and reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RIS) creates unprecedented opportunities for secure wireless communications, yet the practical implications of hardware impairments on this promising combination remain largely unexplored. This paper investigates the security performance of non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) systems when fluid antennas (FAs) meet intelligent surfaces under realistic hardware constraints. We develop a comprehensive analytical framework that captures the complex interplay between adaptive spatial diversity, intelligent signal reflection, and hardware-induced distortions in short-packet communications. Through novel piecewise linear approximations and block-correlation models, we derive tractable expressions for average secure block error rate (BLER) that reveal fundamental performance limits imposed by hardware impairments. Our analysis demonstrates that while the synergy between FAs and intelligent surfaces offers remarkable degrees of freedom for security enhancement, practical hardware imperfections create performance ceilings that persist regardless of spatial diversity gains. The theoretical framework exposes critical design trade-offs between system complexity and achievable security performance, showing that hardware quality becomes a decisive factor in realizing the full potential of FAS-RIS architectures. Extensive simulations validate our analytical insights and provide practical design guidelines for implementing secure NOMA systems that effectively balance the benefits of fluid-intelligent cooperation against the constraints of realistic hardware limitations.

Taming the Bessel Landscape: Joint Antenna Position Optimization for Spatial Decorrelation in Fluid MIMO Systems

When the concept of fluid antenna system (FAS) is applied to multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems, this gives rise to MIMO-FAS, a.k.a.~fluid MIMO. Under rich scattering, the spatial correlation matrices are governed by the zeroth-order Bessel function $J_0(\cdot)$ through the continuously adjustable antenna positions, creating a highly non-convex landscape for optimization with fluctuating local optima -- the \emph{Bessel landscape}. In this paper, we tackle the joint transmitter (TX) and receiver (RX) antenna position optimization problem in fluid MIMO to maximize the ergodic capacity by shaping this landscape. Using Kronecker channel decomposition, we firstly develop a suite of analytical results that expose the problem's intrinsic structure: (i) a high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) capacity approximation that decomposes the objective into separable log-determinant terms of the TX and RX correlation matrices, $\mathbf{R}_T$ and $\mathbf{R}_R$, respectively, (ii) a closed-form capacity loss bound linking $\det(\mathbf{R}_T)\det(\mathbf{R}_R)$ to the performance gap relative to the independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) ideal MIMO channel, and (iii) the globally optimal inter-element spacing when the number of fluid elements at the TX is $N=2$ at the first zero of $J_0$. Guided by these insights, we propose two algorithms within an alternating optimization (AO) framework. The first algorithm is AO with particle swarm optimization (PSO) which deploys a particle swarm to explore the Bessel landscape globally without gradient information. Then in the second method, we use successive convex approximation (SCA) to obtain the gradient in closed form via $J_1(\cdot)$ to construct convex surrogates for orders-of-magnitude faster convergence.

Joint Optimization of Model Partitioning and Resource Allocation for Anti-Jamming Collaborative Inference Systems

With the increasing computational demands of deep neural network (DNN) inference on resource-constrained devices, DNN partitioning-based device-edge collaborative inference has emerged as a promising paradigm. However, the transmission of intermediate feature data is vulnerable to malicious jamming, which significantly degrades the overall inference performance. To counter this threat, this letter focuses on an anti-jamming collaborative inference system in the presence of a malicious jammer. In this system, a DNN model is partitioned into two distinct segments, which are executed by wireless devices and edge servers, respectively. We first analyze the effects of jamming and DNN partitioning on inference accuracy via data regression. Based on this, our objective is to maximize the system's revenue of delay and accuracy (RDA) under inference accuracy and computing resource constraints by jointly optimizing computation resource allocation, devices' transmit power, and DNN partitioning. To address the mixed-integer nonlinear programming problem, we propose an efficient alternating optimization-based algorithm, which decomposes the problem into three subproblems that are solved via Karush-Kuhn-Tucker conditions, convex optimization methods, and a quantum genetic algorithm, respectively. Extensive simulations demonstrate that our proposed scheme outperforms baselines in terms of RDA.

Orchestrating Multimodal DNN Workloads in Wireless Neural Processing

In edge inference, wireless resource allocation and accelerator-level deep neural network (DNN) scheduling have yet to be co-optimized in an end-to-end manner. The lack of coordination between wireless transmission and accelerator-level DNN execution prevents efficient overlap, leading to higher end-to-end inference latency. To address this issue, this paper investigates multimodal DNN workload orchestration in wireless neural processing (WNP), a paradigm that integrates wireless transmission and multi-core accelerator execution into a unified end-to-end pipeline. First, we develop a unified communication-computation model for multimodal DNN execution and formulate the corresponding optimization problem. Second, we propose O-WiN, a framework that orchestrates DNN workloads in WNP through two tightly coupled stages: simulation-based optimization and runtime execution. Third, we develop two algorithms, RTFS and PACS. RTFS schedules communication and computation sequentially, whereas PACS interleaves them to enable pipeline parallelism by overlapping wireless data transfer with accelerator-level DNN execution. Simulation results demonstrate that PACS significantly outperforms RTFS under high modality heterogeneity by better masking wireless latency through communication-computation overlap, thereby highlighting the effectiveness of communication-computation pipelining in accelerating multimodal DNN execution in WNP.

Beyond $λ/2$: Can Arbitrary EMVS Arrays Achieve Unambiguous NLOS Localization?

Conventional radar array design mandates interelement spacing not exceeding half a wavelength ($λ/2$) to avoid spatial ambiguity, fundamentally limiting array aperture and angular resolution. This paper addresses the fundamental question: Can arbitrary electromagnetic vector sensor (EMVS) arrays achieve unambiguous reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS)-aided localization when element spacing exceeds $λ/2$? We provide an affirmative answer by exploiting the multi-component structure of EMVS measurements and developing a synergistic estimation and optimization framework for non-line-of-sight (NLOS) bistatic multiple input multiple output (MIMO) radar. A third-order parallel factor (PARAFAC) model is constructed from EMVS observations, enabling natural separation of spatial, polarimetric, and propagation effects via the trilinear alternating least squares (TALS) algorithm. A novel phase-disambiguation procedure leverages rotational invariance across the six electromagnetic components of EMVSs to resolve $2π$ phase wrapping in arbitrary array geometries, allowing unambiguous joint estimation of two-dimensional (2-D) direction of departure (DOD), two-dimensional direction of arrival (DOA), and polarization parameters with automatic pairing. To support localization in NLOS environments and enhance estimation robustness, a reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) is incorporated and its phase shifts are optimized via semidefinite programming (SDP) relaxation to maximize received signal power, improving signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and further suppressing spatial ambiguities through iterative refinement.

RL based Beamforming Optimization for 3D Pinching Antenna assisted ISAC Systems

In this paper, a three-dimensional (3D) deployment scheme of pinching antenna array is proposed, aiming to enhances the performance of integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) systems. To fully realize the potential of 3D deployment, a joint antenna positioning, time allocation and transmit power optimization problem is formulated to maximize the sum communication rate with the constraints of target sensing rates and system energy. To solve the sum rate maximization problem, we propose a heterogeneous graph neural network based reinforcement learning (HGRL) algorithm. Simulation results prove that 3D deployment of pinching antenna array outperforms 1D and 2D counterparts in ISAC systems. Moreover, the proposed HGRL algorithm surpasses other baselines in both performance and convergence speed due to the advanced observation construction of the environment.

Integrated Sensing and Communication for Segmented Waveguide-Enabled Pinching Antenna Systems

In this paper, an integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) design for segmented waveguide-enabled pinching-antenna array (SWAN) systems is proposed to improve the performance of systems by leveraging the low in-waveguide propagation loss of segmented waveguides. The hybrid segment selection and multiplexing (HSSM) protocol is implemented to provide favorable performance with less hardware cost. To achieve this, a joint transmit beamforming optimization, segment selection, and pinching antenna positioning problem is formulated to maximize the sum communication rate with the constraints of sensing performance. To solve the maximization problem, we propose a segment hysteresis based reinforcement learning (SHRL) algorithm to learn segment selection and pinching antenna positions in different progress to explore better strategies. Simulation results demonstrate that 1) the proposed SWAN-ISAC scheme outperforms the other baseline schemes, and 2) the proposed HARL algorithm achieves better performance compared to conventional RL algorithms.

Resource Allocation and Sharing for UAV-Assisted Integrated TN-NTN with Multi-Connectivity

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) with multi-connectivity (MC) capabilities efficiently and reliably transfer data between terrestrial networks (TNs) and non-terrestrial networks (NTNs). However, optimally sharing and allocating spectrum and power resources to maintain MC while ensuring reliable connectivity and optimal performance remains challenging in such networks. Channel variations induced by mobility in UAV networks, coupled with the varying quality of service (QoS) demands of heterogeneous devices, resource sharing, and fairness requirements in capacity distribution pose challenges to optimal resource allocation. Thus, this paper investigates resource allocation for QoS-constrained, MC-enabled, dynamic UAVs in an integrated TN-NTN environment with spectrum sharing and fairness considerations. To this end, we consider three types of links: UAV-to-radio base station (RBS), UAV-to-UAV, and UAV-to-HAP. We also assume two types of UAVs with diverse QoS requirements to reflect a practical scenario. Consequently, we propose two algorithms. The first algorithm maximizes the capacity of UAVs-RBS and UAVs-HAP links while ensuring the reliability of the UAV-UAV link. To achieve this, the algorithm maximizes the collective throughput of the UAVs by optimizing the sum capacity of all the UAV-RBS and UAV-HAP links. Next, to provide constant capacity to all links and ensure fairness, we propose another algorithm that maximizes the minimum capacity across all links. We validate the performance of both algorithms through simulation

Finite-Aperture Fluid Antenna Array Design: Analysis and Algorithm

Finite-aperture constraints render array design nontrivial and can undermine the effectiveness of classical sparse geometries. This letter provides universal guidance for fluid antenna array (FAA) design under a fixed aperture. We derive a closed-form Cramér--Rao bound (CRB) that unifies conventional and reconfigurable arrays by explicitly linking the Fisher information to the geometric variance of port locations. We further obtain a closed-form probability density function of the minimum spacing under random FAA placement, which yields a principled lower bound for the minimum-spacing constraint. Building upon these analytical insights, we then propose a gradient-based algorithm to optimize continuous port locations. Utilizing a simple gradient update design, the optimized FAA can achieve about a $30\%$ CRB reduction and a $42.5\%$ reduction in mean-squared error.

Multiconnectivity for SAGIN: Current Trends, Challenges, AI-driven Solutions, and Opportunities

Space-air-ground-integrated network (SAGIN)-enabled multiconnectivity (MC) is emerging as a key enabler for next-generation networks, enabling users to simultaneously utilize multiple links across multi-layer non-terrestrial networks (NTN) and multi-radio access technology (multi-RAT) terrestrial networks (TN). However, the heterogeneity of TN and NTN introduces complex architectural challenges that complicate MC implementation. Specifically, the diversity of link types, spanning air-to-air, air-to-space, space-to-space, space-to-ground, and ground-to-ground communications, renders optimal resource allocation highly complex. Recent advancements in reinforcement learning (RL) and agentic artificial intelligence (AI) have shown remarkable effectiveness in optimal decision-making in complex and dynamic environments. In this paper, we review the current developments in SAGIN-enabled MC and outline the key challenges associated with its implementation. We further highlight the transformative potential of AI-driven approaches for resource optimization in a heterogeneous SAGIN environment. To this end, we present a case study on resource allocation optimization enabled by agentic RL for SAGIN-enabled MC involving diverse radio access technologies (RATs). Results show that learning-based methods can effectively handle complex scenarios and substantially enhance network performance in terms of latency and capacity while incurring a moderate increase in power consumption as an acceptable tradeoff. Finally, open research problems and future directions are presented to realize efficient SAGIN-enabled MC.

Adaptive Hybrid Optimizer based Framework for Lumpy Skin Disease Identification

Lumpy Skin Disease (LSD) is a contagious viral infection that significantly deteriorates livestock health, thereby posing a serious threat to the global economy and food security. Owing to its rapid spread characteristics, early and precise identification is crucial to prevent outbreaks and ensure timely intervention. In this paper, we propose a hybrid deep learning-based approach called LUMPNet for the early detection of LSD. LUMPNet utilizes image data to detect and classify skin nodules -- the primary indicator of LSD. To this end, LUMPNet uses YOLOv11, EfficientNet-based CNN classifier with compound scaling, and a novel adaptive hybrid optimizer. More precisely, LUMPNet detects and localizes LSD skin nodules and lesions on cattle images. It exploits EfficientNet to classify the localized cattle images into LSD-affected or healthy categories. To stabilize and accelerate the training of YOLOv11 and EfficientNet hybrid model, a novel adaptive hybrid optimizer is proposed and utilized. We evaluate LUMPNet at various stages of LSD using a publicly available dataset. Results indicate that the proposed scheme achieves 99% LSD detection training accuracy, and outperforms existing schemes. The model also achieves validation accuracy of 98%. Moreover, for further evaluation, we conduct a case study using an optimized EfficientNet-B0 model trained with the AdamW optimizer, and compare its performance with LUMPNet. The results show that LUMPNet achieves superior performance.
