Electromagnetic World Model for 6G: A Unified Framework for Joint Environment Reconstruction and Channel Prediction

The integration of sensing, communication, and intelligence is becoming a key enabler for sixth generation (6G) wireless systems, where intelligent terminals are expected to simultaneously support efficient link establishment and reliable environmental sensing. However, existing studies mainly exploit sensing information or communication information to address a single task, such as channel prediction or environment reconstruction. Motivated by the shared dependence of optical and radio-frequency signals on the surrounding environment, we propose the electromagnetic world model (EMWM), the first unified framework for joint environment reconstruction and channel prediction. EMWM learns a common electromagnetic representation with the potential to provide a modeling foundation for 6G tasks. Specifically, partial channel state information (CSI) and multi-view red-green-blue (RGB) images are encoded into CSI and visual tokens and jointly processed by a hierarchical world-model backbone with local and global aggregation. Based on the learned representation, a mixture-of-experts (MoE)-based CSI prediction head reconstructs the complete CSI, while a depth prediction head estimates multi-view depth maps that are further converted into three-dimensional (3D) point clouds. Moreover, a large-scale multi-modal dataset is constructed based on a campus digital twin. Experimental results show that EMWM outperforms conventional neural network and large language model (LLM) baselines in both CSI prediction and environment reconstruction, achieving a squared generalized cosine similarity (SGCS) of 0.9699 for CSI prediction while demonstrating robustness across different signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) conditions and zero-shot generalization at 28 GHz.

Multi-Modal Large Models Based Beam Prediction: An Example Empowered by DeepSeek

Beam prediction is an effective approach to reduce training overhead in massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems. However, existing beam prediction models still exhibit limited generalization ability in diverse scenarios, which remains a critical challenge. In this paper, we propose MLM-BP, a beam prediction framework based on the multi-modal large model released by DeepSeek, with full consideration of multi-modal environmental information. Specifically, the distribution of scatterers that impact the optimal beam is captured by the sensing devices. Then positions are tokenized to generate text-based representations, and multi-view images are processed by an image encoder, which is fine-tuned with low-rank adaptation (LoRA), to extract environmental embeddings. Finally, these embeddings are fed into the large model, and an output projection module is designed to determine the optimal beam index. Simulation results show that MLM-BP achieves 98.1% Top-1 accuracy on the simulation dataset. Additionally, it demonstrates few-shot generalization on a real-world dataset, achieving 72.7% Top-1 accuracy and 92.4% Top-3 accuracy with only 30% of the dataset, outperforming the existing small models by over 15%.
