Energy Efficiency Maximization for Hybrid RIS-Aided Communications via Deep Unfolding

Pouya Mobaraki, Abolfazl Zakeri, Marco Di Renzo +2

We address energy-efficiency (EE) maximization in a multiuser (MU) multiple-input single-output (MISO) downlink system assisted by a hybrid reconfigurable intelligent surface(RIS),…

Resource-Efficient WiFi CSI Sensing via Exploiting the Age of Samples

Abolfazl Zakeri, Nhan Thanh Nguyen, Markku Juntti

WiFi channel state information (CSI) sensing must coexist with data communications, which constrains the acquisition rate of fresh CSI measurements. To model this, we formulate CSI…

Data-Free Knowledge Distillation for LiDAR-Aided Beam Tracking in MmWave Systems

Abolfazl Zakeri, Nhan Thanh Nguyen, Ahmed Alkhateeb +1

We propose a data-free knowledge distillation (DF- KD) framework for LiDAR-aided mmWave beam tracking, where the objective is to predict the optimal current and future beams from a…
