RadioSight: Predictive mmWave XR Network Optimization from Dynamic Neural Radio Fields

Next-generation extended reality (XR) networks rely on mmWave communication for multi-gigabit throughput, yet highly directional links are vulnerable to user mobility and blockages, causing frequent outages under reactive beam management. Emerging neural radio fields can predict radio propagation, but prior work remains limited to offline channel reconstruction. We introduce RadioSight, a real-time multi-modal radio field system for predictive mmWave optimization and proactive Multi-User MIMO beamforming. RadioSight combines backward beam-tracing with real-time semantic object synchronization to anticipate RF geometry changes without full model retraining. Implemented as an edge-executable pipeline for commercial 28 GHz arrays, RadioSight determines each scheduling window's beams during the preceding window without exhaustive beam sweeps. Experiments show that RadioSight reduces beam-search error by up to ~50%, improves median throughput by 2x, and enhances link stability.

xTRUCE: A Provably Safe Arbiter for Multi-xApp Conflict Mitigation in Agentic O-RAN

The open radio access network (O-RAN) is evolving toward agentic operation, where large language model (LLM)-driven xApps/rApps generate control proposals under operator intents. However, such proposals may be conflicting, infeasible, or hallucinated, and no existing system jointly provides proposal-independent safety, priority-aware reconciliation, and traceable feedback. To this end, we propose a provably safe arbiter, namely xTRUCE, in the near-real-time (Near-RT) RAN intelligent controller for mitigating multi-xApp conflicts in gNB control. We first develop a structured xApp proposal interface and a three-layer constraint hierarchy that places physical limits and operator-defined rules above relaxable performance targets, alongside a dual-timescale control action space. A two-stage arbitration mechanism then minimizes target shortfalls in the operator-priority order to finalize safe E2 actions within the Near-RT latency budget, while returning conflict certificates to xApps and the operator for renegotiation. Finally, we implement xTRUCE in a multi-cell O-RAN use case, and evaluate its multi-process prototype through simulations with live API-backed LLM xApps and over-the-air experiments on OpenAirInterface/FlexRIC-based O-RAN stacks. Results show that xTRUCE ensures gNB control safety with $100\%$ protected services despite severe proposal hallucinations, achieves priority-consistent performance satisfaction under overload, efficiently guides LLM intent renegotiation via certificates, and keeps a delay-safe E2 control loop.
