BeamRMX: Radiation-Pattern-Driven Learning for Generalizable Beam Radio Map Prediction and Beam Management

Angular radio maps describe the received-power distribution over the angle of arrival and underpin beam selection and receiver localization in sixth-generation (6G) networks. Predicting the angular power spectrum (APS) from geometry is difficult, because the mapping is ill-posed in non-line-of-sight (NLOS) conditions and must generalize to unseen environments. Distortion-minimizing regressors return the conditional mean, which over-smooths the spectrum and erases the multipath structure that downstream tasks need. We cast the task as a perception-distortion problem and propose RadioDiff-v2, a dual-branch one-dimensional diffusion transformer trained with flow matching. It couples periodic angular encoding, adaptive layer-normalization conditioning, a Fourier angular mixer, and joint velocity and clean-signal heads. A per-metric estimator portfolio reads every deployment quantity from this single model, so that samples carry the distribution, the clean-signal head supplies a regression-grade point estimate, Bayes-optimal rules select beams, and the conditional likelihood localizes the receiver. We prove that a concentrated conditional yields a straight probability-flow trajectory that one step integrates exactly, identifying deterministic transport as the correct inductive bias. On a zero-shot test of 99 environments and one million links, RadioDiff-v2 leads every baseline on every metric, with a 0.39 dB Wasserstein-1 distance, per-bin error below the regression baseline, a 2.43 dB eight-beam NLOS sweep loss, and a 20.6-pixel localization error with four base stations.

Radiomap blind prediction infers radiomaps from observable representations of the propagation environment and base station (BS) configuration without field measurements. These representations are inherently incomplete and cannot uniquely determine the target radiomap. Under squared loss, we identify the conditional-mean radiomap as the population-optimal deterministic target and decompose domain risk into target-approximation error and irreducible uncertainty. The train-test risk gap motivates propagation priors as cross-domain guidance, although their partial or simplified forms may bias the attainable predictor. We therefore propose RadioDecomp, which treats a prior-guided predictor as a correctable base and uses deterministic residual refinement to learn its remaining predictable discrepancy. We instantiate RadioDecomp as RadioLSR (LoS-Shadow-Residual). Experiments under cross-configuration and cross-environment settings show that RadioLSR is especially effective for cross-configuration generalization and provides overall gains over a controlled monolithic counterpart under cross-environment generalization.

Radio map (RM) estimation aims to reconstruct the spatial distribution of wireless signal characteristics, such as received signal strength (RSS), from sparse measurements, a task that is critical for spectrum management, interference mitigation, and localization in modern wireless networks. Traditional approaches, including interpolation and deep learning, either struggle to capture complex propagation effects or require large-scale retraining for each new sampling pattern, which limits their generalization. More recently, prior-based methods have combined pre-trained generative models with measurements to reduce the need for deployment-time model fine-tuning, but they typically treat the prior as a simple regularizer and lack explicit transmitter-aware integration. In this paper, we propose RadioTrace, a novel RM estimation framework without deployment-time fine-tuning that tightly integrates sparse RSS measurements with a frozen pre-trained diffusion prior. RadioTrace incorporates transmitter (Tx) location estimation directly into the denoising loop, iteratively refining Tx coordinates based on reconstruction quality to guide the generative process. To further enhance robustness, we introduce a propagation-guided K-means initialization that mitigates poor local minima in the Tx update and provides a geometry-consistent starting point. Moreover, we provide a stochastic stability analysis for the Tx-coordinate refinement component, showing that the Tx update remains stable under perturbations induced by diffusion sampling and Tx-map relaxation. Extensive experiments demonstrate that RadioTrace achieves competitive performance with state-of-the-art learning-based methods under random sampling, and maintains strong reconstruction quality under restricted-area sampling, highlighting its adaptability, robustness, and practical relevance.
