Trajectory Design for Fairness Enhancement in Movable Antennas-Aided CommunicationsGuojie Hu, Qingqing Wu, Lipeng Zhu et al.
Through adaptive antenna repositioning, the movable antenna (MA) technology enables on-demand reconfiguration of wireless channels, thereby creating an additional spatial degree of freedom in improving communication performance. This paper investigates a multiuser uplink communication system aided by MAs, where a base station (BS) equipped with multiple MAs serves multiple single-antenna users. Specifically, given that an optimized array geometry cannot guarantee rate fairness, we focus on designing antenna trajectory at the BS to maximize the minimum achievable rate among all users over a finite time period. The resulting optimization problem is fundamentally challenging to solve due to the continuous-time nature. To address it, we first examine an ideal case with infinitely fast MA movement and demonstrate that the relaxed problem can be optimally solved via the Lagrangian dual method. The obtained trajectory solution reveals that the BS should employ a finite set of MA deployment patterns, each allocated an optimal time duration. Building on this, we then study the general case with limited MA movement speed and propose a heuristic trajectory design inspired by the optimal patterns identified in the ideal scenario. Several insights are also gained by examining the simplified special case. Finally, numerical results are provided to validate the effectiveness of the proposed designs compared to competitive benchmarks.

Achieving Hiding and Smart Anti-Jamming Communication: A Parallel DRL Approach against Moving Reactive JammerYangyang Li, Yuhua Xu, Wen Li et al.
This paper addresses the challenge of anti-jamming in moving reactive jamming scenarios. The moving reactive jammer initiates high-power tracking jamming upon detecting any transmission activity, and when unable to detect a signal, resorts to indiscriminate jamming. This presents dual imperatives: maintaining hiding to avoid the jammer's detection and simultaneously evading indiscriminate jamming. Spread spectrum techniques effectively reduce transmitting power to elude detection but fall short in countering indiscriminate jamming. Conversely, changing communication frequencies can help evade indiscriminate jamming but makes the transmission vulnerable to tracking jamming without spread spectrum techniques to remain hidden. Current methodologies struggle with the complexity of simultaneously optimizing these two requirements due to the expansive joint action spaces and the dynamics of moving reactive jammers. To address these challenges, we propose a parallelized deep reinforcement learning (DRL) strategy. The approach includes a parallelized network architecture designed to decompose the action space. A parallel exploration-exploitation selection mechanism replaces the $\varepsilon $-greedy mechanism, accelerating convergence. Simulations demonstrate a nearly 90\% increase in normalized throughput.

The intersection of physics-based vision and deep learning presents an exciting frontier for advancing computer vision technologies. By leveraging the principles of physics to inform and enhance deep learning models, we can develop more robust and accurate vision systems. Physics-based vision aims to invert the processes to recover scene properties such as shape, reflectance, light distribution, and medium properties from images. In recent years, deep learning has shown promising improvements for various vision tasks, and when combined with physics-based vision, these approaches can enhance the robustness and accuracy of vision systems. This technical report summarizes the outcomes of the Physics-Based Vision Meets Deep Learning (PBDL) 2024 challenge, held in CVPR 2024 workshop. The challenge consisted of eight tracks, focusing on Low-Light Enhancement and Detection as well as High Dynamic Range (HDR) Imaging. This report details the objectives, methodologies, and results of each track, highlighting the top-performing solutions and their innovative approaches.
