Deep Reinforcement Learning for Joint Time and Power Management in SWIPT-EH CIoT

This letter presents a novel deep reinforcement learning (DRL) approach for joint time allocation and power control in a cognitive Internet of Things (CIoT) system with simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT). The CIoT transmitter autonomously manages energy harvesting (EH) and transmissions using a learnable time switching factor while optimizing power to enhance throughput and lifetime. The joint optimization is modeled as a Markov decision process under small-scale fading, realistic EH, and interference constraints. We develop a double deep Q-network (DDQN) enhanced with an upper confidence bound. Simulations benchmark our approach, showing superior performance over existing DRL methods.

Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces for 6G and Beyond: A Comprehensive Survey from Theory to Deployment

As the wireless research community moves toward shaping the vision of sixth-generation (6G) networks, reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RIS) have emerged as a promising technology for controlling the propagation environment. Although RIS has not yet been standardized, its versatile applications and enabling capabilities have attracted growing attention in both academia and industry. This survey presents a comprehensive review of RIS technology spanning theoretical foundations, design aspects, and practical deployment considerations. In contrast to existing surveys that focus on isolated aspects, this work offers an integrated view covering use cases, control mechanisms, channel sounding methodologies, and channel estimation strategies. Each of these topics is reviewed through the lens of recent literature, synthesizing the latest advancements to provide updated insights for both academic researchers and industry practitioners. It further addresses emerging topics such as standardization activities and industrial perspectives, which are often overlooked in prior literature. By bridging theoretical insights with practical challenges, this survey aims to provide a holistic understanding of RIS and support its evolution from a research concept toward real-world implementation.

A Survey of Applied Machine Learning Techniques for Optical OFDM based Networks

In this survey, we analyze the newest machine learning (ML) techniques for optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (O-OFDM)-based optical communications. ML has been proposed to mitigate channel and transceiver imperfections. For instance, ML can improve the signal quality under low modulation extinction ratio or can tackle both determinist and stochastic-induced nonlinearities such as parametric noise amplification in long-haul transmission. The proposed ML algorithms for O-OFDM can in particularly tackle inter-subcarrier nonlinear effects such as four-wave mixing and cross-phase modulation. In essence, these ML techniques could be beneficial for any multi-carrier approach (e.g. filter bank modulation). Supervised and unsupervised ML techniques are analyzed in terms of both O-OFDM transmission performance and computational complexity for potential real-time implementation. We indicate the strict conditions under which a ML algorithm should perform classification, regression or clustering. The survey also discusses open research issues and future directions towards the ML implementation.
