SR-TTA: Spatial-Redundancy Test-Time Adaptation for Interference-Robust Respiration Sensing

Cellular research and development (R&D) is throttled by six structural processes that each consume months of manual engineering work per iteration: (i) synthesizing new features from standards or research papers into production code; (ii) conformance and interoperability testing; (iii) hardening against field anomalies and diverse deployment environments; (iv) data-driven optimization of network functionalities; (v) discovering and prototyping novel waveforms, functionalities, and capabilities for future standards; and (vi) securing the stack against vulnerabilities. Although Large Language Models (LLMs) have compressed comparable R&D work in general software engineering from days to minutes, their known pitfalls worsen on Radio Access Network (RAN) use cases: they hallucinate Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) and mis-read specifications, which kills interoperability of RAN components at the first mistake, and they heavily rely on simulations for designing algorithms, which is notorious for breaking when transferred to real hardware. To address these challenges, we present GENESIS, an agentic Artificial Intelligence (AI) framework that converts intents (e.g., a specification clause, a telemetry anomaly, or a research hypothesis) into solutions validated with over-the-air experiments, fed back into a persistent knowledge base. GENESIS is built on three composable primitives (agents, skills, hooks) and a knowledge layer (SYNAPSE) that doubles as the source of ground truth and the recipient of every artifact the framework produces, making capabilities compound across runs.

This paper proposes FedCritic-MIMO, a communication-efficient serverless federated multi-agent reinforcement learning framework for AI-native resource control across independently deployable cell-level controllers in open and disaggregated 6G RANs. Controllers share no trainer, retain local actors and personalized critic components, and exchange only compatible shared critic parameters. FedCritic-MIMO targets reuse-$1$ multi-cell massive-MIMO OFDMA deployments, where RAN controllers jointly manage user scheduling, per-stream power allocation, beamforming, interference, and long-term QoS with limited inter-controller signaling. Each base station locally executes its actor without centralized training or actor federation, while critic knowledge is exchanged peer-to-peer over an interference-aware graph. It enables this collaboration through wireless-aware event triggering, adaptive layer-wise top-$k$ sparse critic exchange with error feedback, and balanced interference-aware fusion. We establish conditional finite-time stationarity and consensus guarantees for the balanced, compressed peer-to-peer critic recursion under a fixed-policy, frozen-target critic-regression model. In strongly interference-coupled reuse-$1$ simulations, FedCritic-MIMO achieves the best performance-communication tradeoff among heuristic, independent-learning, centralized-training, and communication-ablation baselines. It achieves the highest held-out throughput, improves user-rate distribution and mean SINR, increases QoS satisfaction, and attains the lowest interference cost per delivered bit among learning baselines. It reduces critic-communication overhead by $76\%$ relative to uncompressed distributed critic exchange. These results demonstrate that serverless exchange of compatible shared critic parameters can coordinate RAN controllers without centralized trajectory collection or parameter-server aggregation.

Accurate user equipment (UE) localization is critical for beam management in reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS)-assisted millimeter-wave (mmWave) based sixth-generation (6G) networks, especially if the direct base-station-UE links are unavailable. This paper proposes a beam-domain fingerprint framework that maps the received signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) across a small set of predefined RIS reflection states to the UE azimuth angle and range, without requiring channel state information (CSI). Crucially, we extend the framework to a realistic interference-impaired scenario in which a nearby cross-link interferer (CLI) corrupts the clean SNR fingerprint, yielding a signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) fingerprint; an interference-to-noise ratio (INR)-constrained calibration strategy keeps the interference level physically interpretable. Four machine-learning (ML) regressors are evaluated under both conditions. Simulation results at 28 GHz with a 20x20 RIS show that k-nearest neighbors (KNN) achieves the lowest angle MAE of 0.37 degrees and range MAE of 4 cm under clean conditions, rising to 1.4 degrees and 7.6 cm under interference. A key finding is that interference degrades angle estimation substantially more than range estimation across all models, a consequence of the asymmetric encoding of location information in the beam-domain fingerprint.
