WiFo-INR: A Wireless Foundation Model Based on Implicit Neural Representations

Wireless foundation models are emerging as a promising paradigm for AI-native physical-layer design. However, existing methods typically model channel state information (CSI) as image-like discrete tensors with generic token decoders that may struggle to capture complex high-frequency variations efficiently and often produce high-dimensional, size-dependent representations. In this paper, we propose WiFo-INR, an implicit neural representation (INR)-based wireless foundation model that represents CSI as a coordinate-conditioned neural function. A Transformer encoder maps partial or coarse CSI to fixed-dimensional modulation tokens that adapt a SIREN-based decoder, and a compression autoencoder enables quantized CSI feedback. It adopts a two-stage self-supervised pretraining scheme, where mixed masking and denoising improve channel reconstruction and compression-enhanced pretraining enables accurate CSI feedback at low compression ratios. Extensive experiments demonstrate that WiFo-INR learns efficient, compact, and CSI-size-independent implicit wireless representations. Compared with existing foundation models, WiFo-INR improves channel reconstruction and CSI feedback performance while substantially reducing inference latency. It also transfers efficiently to diverse wireless tasks with minimal fine-tuning overhead and achieves zero-shot generalization to unseen CSI sizes.

Stay or Switch: Online Conformal Bayesian Optimization Guided Fluid Antenna Configuration

Fluid antenna systems (FAS) introduce additional spatial degrees of freedom to enable integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) in air-ground networks. However, conventional studies often overlook or simplify the physical overheads and switching costs of FAS. In practice, port switching incurs non-negligible time, during which communication and sensing may continue but with potentially degraded slot-level performance. This leads to two key challenges: (1) the characterization of a slot-level, cost-aware ISAC metric is difficult, and (2) the large port space and accompanying abrupt environmental variations demand more reliable online decision-making. To address these challenges, a cost-aware multi-objective FAS switching problem is formulated, jointly considering slot-level ISAC performance and switching energy. The online conformal Bayesian optimization (OCBO) algorithm is then proposed to learn the unknown gray-box ISAC objectives and calibrate surrogate uncertainty for robust stay-or-switch decisions. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed cost-aware optimization framework achieves substantially improved long-term ISAC performance compared to existing baselines.

Radio Map Updating from Streaming Spectrum Measurements via Memory-Based Online Gaussian Processes

Radio maps, which estimate spatial radio-frequency characteristics from spectrum measurements, are essential for applications such as spectrum management and network planning. With the continuous arrival of spectrum measurements, conventional batch processing methods for radio map reconstruction become computationally prohibitive, as they require reprocessing all accumulated measurements for each radio map update. To address this, we propose a memory-based online sparse variational Gaussian process (M-OSVGP) method that efficiently updates radio maps from streaming spectrum measurements. Our method employs sparse variational inference and updates the posterior online by minimizing a hybrid objective that integrates newly received measurements and a memory subset of previous ones to mitigate catastrophic forgetting. To further improve posterior approximation as measurements accumulate over spatially diverse regions, we extend M-OSVGP with a grid-assisted online inducing point selection (GOIPS) algorithm. GOIPS dynamically adapts the number and locations of inducing points based on measurement density and spatial correlation, providing a more informative inducing set while maintaining computational efficiency. Extensive simulations demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed methods in reconstruction accuracy, computational efficiency, and uncertainty quantification, compared to existing batch and online baselines across various scenarios.

Sensing-Native Over-the-Air Federated Learning

Over-the-air federated learning (FL) leverages the superposition property of multiple-access channels to enable communication-efficient distributed model training. Existing integrated sensing, communication, and computation (ISCC)-enabled over-the-air FL systems typically require dedicated resources for the sensing module, inevitably compromising FL performance due to resource competition. In this paper, we propose a sensing-native over-the-air FL framework that explores built-in distributed wireless sensing capability with zero overhead per model aggregation. Specifically, the high-dimensional local gradient signals possessing favorable autocorrelation property are concurrently leveraged for target distance estimation, while the gradient statistics already required for over-the-air FL serve as a ready-made gateway to deliver locally-sensed results to the edge server for cooperative localization. To combat inter-device interference, channel fading, and communication noise, we put forth a robust trilateration-based target positioning method building upon an efficient matched-filtering-based distance estimation. Then, by explicitly characterizing the impact of imperfect model aggregation and noisy gradient-statistics transmission on the sensing-native over-the-air FL convergence, we develop a statistics-aware communication-learning co-design approach. We first derive the closed-form optimal power budgets allocated to local gradients and their statistics, based on which an efficient successive convex approximation method is proposed for receiver beamforming optimization. Simulation results show that the proposed framework simultaneously achieves superior learning and sensing performance compared to representative baselines.

Active Perception for Radio Map Reconstruction in Uncharted 3D Air-Ground Environments

Radio maps provide the essential foundation for low altitude networking systems. Unlike terrestrial radio maps that are typically generated via drive test measurements, mapping the air-ground environment requires the deployment of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). This shift introduces two formidable challenges in uncharted 3D scenarios. First, sparse radio measurements and incomplete geometric observations hinder accurate reconstruction. Second, the large 3D action space and strict power constraints from high spectrum scanner energy consumption make informative exploration difficult. To address these issues, this paper proposes 3D uncertainty aware radio active mapping (3D-URAM), a closed loop active perception framework that decouples the mapping process into two offline trained stages. In Stage I, a Bayesian UNet is developed to recover radio maps from sparse measurements and partial geometry while providing calibrated predictive uncertainty. In Stage II, a dynamic probabilistic roadmap and a transformer based waypoint selection policy trained via proximal policy optimization maximize long horizon uncertainty reduction under travel budgets. Experimental results demonstrate that 3D-URAM reduces reconstruction error by over 50% compared to representative baselines. Real-world field tests within a 300mx200mx100m space also validate the potential of active radio map reconstruction.

Learn to Access and Backhaul the Sky: Multi-Scale Radio Map Guided Multi-UAV Cooperation

Driven by the emerging low-altitude economy, uncrewed aerial vehicle (UAV) swarms offer flexible integrated air-ground access and backhaul. However, providing seamless connectivity is difficult due to the interdependent dynamics of user mobility and building blockages in these 3D scenarios. These factors create rapidly shifting bottlenecks in end-to-end paths. Furthermore, the multi-dimensional nature of joint control limits the effectiveness of traditional heuristics. To address these challenges, a \textbf{\underline{M}}ulti-Scale \textbf{\underline{R}}adio \textbf{\underline{M}}ap-\textbf{\underline{G}}uided (MRMG) framework is proposed. The MRMG framework handles heterogeneous dynamics by integrating three distinct levels of radio information: global-level maps provide regional coverage insights, local-level maps capture neighborhood-scale service conditions, and link-level maps characterize high-resolution channel features. This design effectively decouples macro-movement from micro-link adaptation. To yield long-term performance improvements, A multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) controller learns cooperative policies for UAV movement, next-hop selection, and transmit-power control. Simulation results show that the MRMG framework not only improves network throughput but also significantly bolsters cell-edge service, nearly doubling the 5th-percentile user rate.

TeRFS: Temporal-Evolving Radio Field Synthesis

While radio-frequency (RF) field synthesis is fundamental to wireless networking, current approaches remain constrained by static assumptions, leaving them unable to track the rapid multipath reorganization of dynamic scenes. Modeling these transitions requires addressing two coupled challenges: explicit temporal representation and the capture of discrete path lifecycles. To bridge this gap, Temporal-Evolving Radio Field Synthesis (TeRFS) is introduced. TeRFS utilizes an anisotropic spherical Gaussian (ASG) directional basis to represent sparse, sharp angular structures, bound to analytical temporal envelopes that regulate path lifecycles. This formulation induces a mathematical birth-and-death mechanism, enabling individual multipath trajectories to emerge and vanish with temporal precision, a capability beyond the reach of standard smooth interpolation. Evaluations demonstrate that TeRFS outperforms state-of-the-art (SOTA) baselines, achieving an 11.5% reduction in mean squared error (MSE) alongside a 6.9 times training speedup. Even in environments characterized by extreme structural mutation, TeRFS maintains robust tracking of dynamic reorganizations, limiting median absolute error to 1.52 dB and establishing its utility for high-mobility wireless applications.

Scalable Multimodal Beam Alignment in V2X: An Anti-Imbalance Graph Learning Approach

Efficient beam alignment is fundamental to high-throughput and reliable connectivity in Vehicle-to-Everything (V2X) systems. However, conventional beam management in dynamic vehicular topologies incurs prohibitive alignment overhead and struggles to maintain robust links under rapid mobility. To overcome these challenges, this paper proposes a distributed multimodal graph beam alignment (GBA) framework. The core innovation lies in leveraging onboard multimodal sensing data to predict implicit feedback while employing graph neural networks to coordinate multi-user alignment, thereby jointly enhancing scalability and drastically reducing overhead. The architecture adopts a dual-network design with GBA-RSU and GBA-Vehicle units, optimized through a hybrid strategy of centralized learning and federated learning (FL) to balance global performance with local privacy. Furthermore, a dedicated data augmentation (DA) scheme is introduced to address multimodal data imbalance issues in vehicular networks. Negative augmentation applies dominant modality dropout to bolster robustness, while positive augmentation generates underrepresented samples to mitigate label imbalance. Numerical results demonstrate that GBA maintains a competitive sum rate on par with high-resolution codebook-based feedback yet reduces beam alignment overhead by over 90\% and scales efficiently in mobile scenarios. Notably, integrating DA enables GBA to consistently outperform state-of-the-art FL-based alignment benchmarks, with particularly pronounced gains under severe label and modality imbalance, establishing a practical solution for V2X beam management.

WiFo-MiSAC: A Wireless Foundation Model for Multimodal Sensing and Communication Integration via Synesthesia of Machines (SoM)

Current learning-based wireless methods struggle with generalization due to the fragmented processing of communication and sensing data. WiFo-MiSAC addresses this as a task-agnostic foundation model that tokenizes heterogeneous signals into a unified space for self-supervised pre-training. A shared-specific disentangled mixture-of-experts (SS-DMoE) architecture is employed to decouple modality-shared and modality-specific representations, facilitating interaction without cross-modal interference. By combining masked reconstruction with contrastive alignment, the model achieves state-of-the-art performance across downstream tasks, including beam prediction and channel estimation. Experimental results demonstrate robust few-shot adaptation and seamless integration of new modalities, positioning WiFo-MiSAC as a scalable backbone for future integrated sensing and communication systems.

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

Fluid antenna systems (FAS) provide extra position agile spatial diversity for integrated sensing and communication (ISAC), by jointly optimizing the port selection and precoding. However, this optimization is challenging in air ground networks due to the intricate dual objective Pareto frontier, complex self-interference, and prohibitive channel state information overhead. To overcome these bottlenecks, this work proposes a novel grey box multi objective Bayesian optimization framework to address the joint design of discrete port selection and ISAC precoding. Unlike black box methods, this architecture explicitly leverages known physical system models to learn unknown channel constituents, dramatically reducing sample complexity. To navigate high dimensional combinatorial spaces, an adaptive trust region mechanism powered by expected hypervolume improvement (EHI) acquisition is implemented. Furthermore, the framework incorporates a spatio-temporal tracking strategy to handle the continuous mobility of users and targets, robustly capturing the drifting optimum in time varying environments. Simulations demonstrate that this framework achieves significantly faster convergence and discovers superior Pareto optimal configurations, validating its efficiency for dynamic real time FAS-ISAC deployments.
