An Integrated Sensing and Communication System for Time-Sensitive Targets with Random Arrivals
In 6G networks, integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) is envisioned as a key technology that enables wireless systems to perform joint sensing and communication using shared hardware, antennas and spectrum. ISAC designs facilitate emerging applications such as smart cities and autonomous driving. Such applications also demand ultra-reliable and low-latency communication (URLLC). Thus, an ISAC-enabled URLLC system can prioritize time-sensitive targets and ensure information delivery under …

Minimizing Communication for Parallel Symmetric Tensor Times Same Vector Computation
In this article, we focus on the parallel communication cost of multiplying the same vector along two modes of a $3$-dimensional symmetric tensor. This is a key computation in the higher-order power method for determining eigenpairs of a $3$-dimensional symmetric tensor and in gradient-based methods for computing a symmetric CP decomposition. We establish communication lower bounds that determine how much data movement is required to perform the specified computation in parallel. The core idea …

Widely Linear Augmented Extreme Learning Machine Based Impairments Compensation for Satellite Communications
Satellite communications are crucial for the evolution beyond fifth-generation networks. However, the dynamic nature of satellite channels and their inherent impairments present significant challenges. In this paper, a novel post-compensation scheme that combines the complex-valued extreme learning machine with augmented hidden layer (CELMAH) architecture and widely linear processing (WLP) is developed to address these issues by exploiting signal impropriety in satellite communications. Althoug…

Identification for Molecular Communication Based on Diffusion Channel with Poisson Reception Process
Molecular communication (MC) enables information exchange at the nano- and microscale, with applications in areas like drug delivery and health monitoring. These event-driven scenarios often require alternatives to traditional transmission. Identification communication, introduced by Ahlswede and Dueck, offers such an approach, in which the receiver only determines whether a specific message was sent, suiting resource-limited and event-triggered systems. This paper combines MC with identificati…
