Deep Learning Framework for the Design of Orbital Angular Momentum Generators Enabled by Leaky-wave Holograms

Naser Omrani, Fardin Ghorbani, Sina Beyraghi et al.

In this paper, we present a novel approach for the design of leaky-wave holographic antennas that generates OAM-carrying electromagnetic waves by combining Flat Optics (FO) and machine learning (ML) techniques. To improve the performance of our system, we use a machine learning technique to discover a mathematical function that can effectively control the entire radiation pattern, i.e., decrease the side lobe level (SLL) while simultaneously increasing the central null depth of the radiation pattern. Precise tuning of the parameters of the impedance equation based on holographic theory is necessary to achieve optimal results in a variety of scenarios. In this research, we applied machine learning to determine the approximate values of the parameters. We can determine the optimal values for each parameter, resulting in the desired radiation pattern, using a total of 77,000 generated datasets. Furthermore, the use of ML not only saves time, but also yields more precise and accurate results than manual parameter tuning and conventional optimization methods.

Site-Specific MIMO Channel Generation via Diffusion and Flow Matching: Fidelity, Efficiency, and Downstream Utility

Sina Beyraghi, Masoud Sadeghian, Firdous Bin Ismail et al.

This paper explores the use of generative models to synthesize high-quality, site-specific multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channel data, addressing the high cost of the extensive measurement campaigns required to acquire real-world data for AI-native wireless networks. Two location-conditioned generative paradigms are compared: a conditional denoising diffusion implicit model (cDDIM), and a conditional flow matching model (cFMM). Both these models generate MIMO channel matrices conditioned on user coordinates, to preserve the spatial structure of the deployment site. The approaches are evaluated across three dimensions: statistical fidelity (including beam consistency and effective rank), generation efficiency, and utility in downstream tasks such as channel-state information compression and beam alignment. Results across diverse propagation scenarios (28 GHz and 3.5 GHz, both line-of-sight and non-line-of-sight) demonstrate that both models accurately capture site-specific characteristics, even when trained on scarce ground-truth data. Notably, cFMM achieves a quality comparable to cDDIM with roughly an order of magnitude less inference time. Augmenting scarce site-specific datasets with these synthetic channels yields hefty performance gains in downstream physical layer tasks compared to using scarce data alone or stochastic channels.

A deep learning approach for inverse design of the metasurface for dual-polarized waves

Fardin Ghorbani, Javad Shabanpour, Sina Beyraghi et al.

Compared to the conventional metasurface design, machine learning-based methods have recently created an inspiring platform for an inverse realization of the metasurfaces. Here, we have used the Deep Neural Network (DNN) for the generation of desired output unit cell structures in an ultra-wide working frequency band for both TE and TM polarized waves. To automatically generate metasurfaces in a wide range of working frequencies from 4 to 45 GHz, we deliberately design an 8 ring-shaped pattern in such a way that the unit-cells generated in the dataset can produce single or multiple notches in the desired working frequency band. Compared to the general approach, whereby the final metasurface structure may be formed by any randomly distributed "0" and "1", we propose here a restricted output structure. By restricting the output, the number of calculations will be reduced and the learning speed will be increased. Moreover, we have shown that the accuracy of the network reaches 91\%. Obtaining the final unit cell directly without any time-consuming optimization algorithms for both TE and TM polarized waves, and high average accuracy, promises an effective strategy for the metasurface design; thus, the designer is required only to focus on the design goal.
