Beam-Brainstorm: A Generative Site-Specific Beamforming Approach

Accurately understanding the propagation environment is a fundamental challenge in site-specific beamforming (SSBF). This paper proposes a novel generative SSBF (GenSSBF) solution, which represents a paradigm shift from conventional unstructured prediction to joint-structure modeling. First, considering the fundamental differences between beam generation and conventional image synthesis, a unified GenSSBF framework is proposed, which includes a site profile, a wireless prompting module, and a generator. Second, a beam-brainstorm (BBS) solution is proposed as an instantiation of this GenSSBF framework. Specifically, the site profile is configured by transforming channel data from spatial domain to a reversible latent space via discrete Fourier transform (DFT). To facilitate practical deployment, the wireless prompt is constructed from the reference signal received power (RSRP) measured using a small number of DFT-beams. Finally, the generator is developed using a customized conditional diffusion model. Rather than relying on a meticulously designed global codebook, BBS directly generates diverse and high-fidelity user-specific beams guided by the wireless prompts. Simulation results on accurate ray-tracing datasets demonstrate that BBS can achieve near-optimal beamforming gain while drastically reducing the beam sweeping overhead, even in low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) environments.

Generative Site-Specific Beamforming for Next-Generation Spatial Intelligence

This article proposes generative site-specific beamforming (GenSSBF) for next-generation spatial intelligence in wireless networks. Site-specific beamforming (SSBF) has emerged as a promising paradigm to mitigate the channel acquisition bottleneck in multiantenna systems by exploiting environmental priors. However, classical SSBF based on discriminative deep learning struggles: 1) to properly represent the inherent multimodality of wireless propagation and 2) to effectively capture the structural features of beamformers. In contrast, by leveraging conditional generative models, GenSSBF addresses these issues via learning a conditional distribution over feasible beamformers. By doing so, the synthesis of diverse and high-fidelity beam candidates from coarse channel sensing measurements can be guaranteed. This article presents the fundamentals, system designs, and implementation methods of GenSSBF. Case studies in both indoor and outdoor scenarios show that GenSSBF attains near-optimal beamforming gain with ultra-low channel acquisition overhead. Finally, several open research problems are highlighted.

GLM-5V-Turbo: Toward a Native Foundation Model for Multimodal Agents

We present GLM-5V-Turbo, a step toward native foundation models for multimodal agents. As foundation models are increasingly deployed in real environments, agentic capability depends not only on language reasoning, but also on the ability to perceive, interpret, and act over heterogeneous contexts such as images, videos, webpages, documents, GUIs. GLM-5V-Turbo is built around this objective: multimodal perception is integrated as a core component of reasoning, planning, tool use, and execution, rather than as an auxiliary interface to a language model. This report summarizes the main improvements behind GLM-5V-Turbo across model design, multimodal training, reinforcement learning, toolchain expansion, and integration with agent frameworks. These developments lead to strong performance in multimodal coding, visual tool use, and framework-based agentic tasks, while preserving competitive text-only coding capability. More importantly, our development process offers practical insights for building multimodal agents, highlighting the central role of multimodal perception, hierarchical optimization, and reliable end-to-end verification.

Efficient demodulation scheme for multilevel modulation based optical camera communication

We proposed and experimentally demonstrated a new hybrid code structure based on the overlapping of two light sources to produce the effect of multi-voltage amplitudes. And we also proposed an efficient polarity reversal threshold (RRT) algorithm for multilevel based OCC system. Then taking the issue of SPO into account, a novel adaptive sampling method (ASM) is proposed, which can effectively alleviate the problem of SPO and further enhance the performance of multilevel OCC. It is demonstrated that a data rate of 8.4 Kbit/s can be achieved by applying the proposed two algorithms.

Towards Efficient and Stable K-Asynchronous Federated Learning with Unbounded Stale Gradients on Non-IID Data

Federated learning (FL) is an emerging privacy-preserving paradigm that enables multiple participants collaboratively to train a global model without uploading raw data. Considering heterogeneous computing and communication capabilities of different participants, asynchronous FL can avoid the stragglers effect in synchronous FL and adapts to scenarios with vast participants. Both staleness and non-IID data in asynchronous FL would reduce the model utility. However, there exists an inherent contradiction between the solutions to the two problems. That is, mitigating the staleness requires to select less but consistent gradients while coping with non-IID data demands more comprehensive gradients. To address the dilemma, this paper proposes a two-stage weighted $K$ asynchronous FL with adaptive learning rate (WKAFL). By selecting consistent gradients and adjusting learning rate adaptively, WKAFL utilizes stale gradients and mitigates the impact of non-IID data, which can achieve multifaceted enhancement in training speed, prediction accuracy and training stability. We also present the convergence analysis for WKAFL under the assumption of unbounded staleness to understand the impact of staleness and non-IID data. Experiments implemented on both benchmark and synthetic FL datasets show that WKAFL has better overall performance compared to existing algorithms.

Recognition and evaluation of constellation diagram using deep learning based on underwater wireless optical communication

Abstract. In this paper, we proposed a method of constellation diagram recognition and evaluation using deep learning based on underwater wireless optical communication (UWOC). More specifically, an constellation diagram analyzer for UWOC system based on convolutional neural network (CNN) is designed for modulation format recognition (MFR), optical signal noise ratio (OSNR) and phase error estimation. Besides, unsupervised learning is used to excavate a new optimization metric from various factors that affect the quality of underwater channel.The proposed new metric synthesizes several original indexes, which we termed it as multi noise spatial metric (MNSM). The proposed MNSM divides the quality of constellation from high to low into several levels and reflects the quality of UWOC channel. Through the simulation, the constellation diagrams of four widely used M-QAM modulation formats for 16 OSNR values (15dB~30dB) are obtained, with the phase error standard deviations ranging from 0° to 45°. The results show that the accuracy of MFR , the estimation of OSNR and phase noise are 100%, 95% and 98.6% accuracies are achieved respectively. The ablation studies are also carried out in order to analyze the performance of deep learning in the recognition of constellation diagrams.
