RL-Driven Semantic Compression Model Selection and Resource Allocation in Semantic Communication Systems
Semantic communication (SemCom) is an emerging paradigm that leverages semantic-level understanding to improve communication efficiency, particularly in resource-constrained scenarios. However, existing SemCom systems often overlook diverse computational and communication capabilities and requirements among different users. Motivated by the need to adaptively balance semantic accuracy, latency, and energy consumption, this paper presents a reinforcement learning (RL)-driven framework for semant…

Covert Communications in MEC-Based Networked ISAC Systems Towards Low-Altitude Economy
Low-altitude economy (LAE) is an emerging business model, which heavily relies on integrated sensing and communications (ISAC), mobile edge computing (MEC), and covert communications. This paper investigates the convert transmission design in MEC-based networked ISAC systems towards LAE, where an MEC server coordinates multiple access points to simultaneously receive computation tasks from multiple unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), locate a target in a sensing area, and maintain UAVs' covert tra…

Detecting Multiple Targets with Distributed Sensing and Communication in Cell-Free Massive MIMO
This paper investigates multi-target detection in an integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) system within a cell-free massive MIMO (CF-mMIMO) framework. We adopt a user-centric approach for communication user equipments (UEs) and a distributed sensing approach for multi-target detection. A heuristic access point (AP) mode selection algorithm and a channel-aware distributed sensing scheme are proposed, where local measurements at receive APs (RX-APs) are weighted based on the received signa…

A Virtual Quantum Network Prototype for Open Access
The rise of quantum networks has revolutionized domains such as communication, sensing, and cybersecurity. Despite this progress, current quantum network systems remain limited in scale, are highly application-specific (e.g., for quantum key distribution), and lack a clear road map for global expansion. These limitations are largely driven by a shortage of skilled professionals, limited accessibility to quantum infrastructure, and the high complexity and cost associated with building and operat…

On the Evolution of Federated Post-Training Large Language Models: A Model Accessibility View
Federated Learning (FL) enables training models across decentralized data silos while preserving client data privacy. Recent research has explored efficient methods for post-training large language models (LLMs) within FL to address computational and communication challenges. While existing approaches often rely on access to LLMs' internal information, which is frequently restricted in real-world scenarios, an inference-only paradigm (black-box FedLLM) has emerged to address these limitations. …

Enhanced Velocity-Adaptive Scheme: Joint Fair Access and Age of Information Optimization in Vehicular Networks
In this paper, we consider the fair access problem and the Age of Information (AoI) under 5G New Radio (NR) Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) Mode 2 in vehicular networks. Specifically, vehicles follow Mode 2 to communicate with Roadside Units (RSUs) to obtain accurate data for driving assistance.Nevertheless, vehicles often have different velocity when they are moving in adjacent lanes, leading to difference in RSU dwelltime and communication duration. This results in unfair access to network re…

Normal stable degenerations of Noether-Horikawa surfaces
We classify all normal stable Horikawa surfaces with only $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein smoothable log canonical singularities. Furthermore, we provide a criterion for their global $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein smoothability and describe the boundary strata of the moduli space of $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein smoothable normal stable Horikawa surfaces.

Location Information Sharing Using Software Defined Radio in Multi-UAV Systems
SDR (Software Defined Radio) provides flexible, reproducible, and longer-lasting radio tools for military and civilian wireless communications infrastructure. SDR is a radio communication system whose components are implemented as software. This study aims to establish multi-channel wireless communication with FANET between two SDRs to share location information and examine it in a realistic test environment. We used multi-channel token circulation as a channel access protocol and GNU Radio pla…
