Driven by the rapid development of the low-altitude economy, Uncrewed Aerial Vehicle (UAV) networks have become increasingly important for executing tasks such as search, rescue, and monitoring. However, under bandwidth-constrained scenarios, UAV networks still face significant challenges in task execution efficiency and intelligent processing capabilities. To address these issues, we propose Multi-UAV Cooperative Deep Semantic Autoencoders (MC-DSA) for communication networks. The architecture comprises one Task UAV (T-UAV) and multiple Support UAVs (S-UAVs), which jointly enhance communication efficiency and data-processing capability via semantic communication and cooperation. Specifically, we introduce a semantic matching and source selection mechanism, enabling the proposed MC-DSA to handle low-quality images while ensuring effective utilization of high-quality images. The T-UAV broadcasts a task query, and each S-UAV computes the semantic similarity between its local image and the query. Communication links are established only when the similarity exceeds a predefined threshold. The training algorithm optimizes network parameters through gradient descent, improving semantic feature extraction accuracy. The testing algorithm evaluates UAV collaboration efficiency and communication quality. Experimental results demonstrate that, compared with benchmarks, the proposed MC-DSA improves image semantic segmentation accuracy while maintaining task execution efficiency. As a result, it reduces redundant transmissions and offers an effective solution for multi-UAV communication networks.
Speech communication plays a crucial role in the Internet of Things and autonomous networks. However, traditional communication systems suffer from insufficient semantic extraction and limited noise suppression capability. To address these issues, we propose a Speech enhancement-based Deep Semantic Autoencoder (S-DSA) for wireless communications. It consists of a dual-branch semantic encoder, a channel encoder, a channel decoder, and two semantic decoders, enabling joint source-channel coding for robust transmission. A key novelty lies in an adaptive semantic noise decoupling mechanism that disentangles target speech semantics from noise representations through an interaction module, thus maintaining semantic consistency under low SNR conditions. Furthermore, a joint training strategy optimizes speech reconstruction and noise estimation, while a lightweight testing strategy reduces complexity by disabling the noise-decoding path. the proposed S-DSA enables more effective separation between speech and noise, and yields higher robustness as well as better reconstruction quality. These findings highlight the potential of the proposed S-DSA as a practical solution for next-generation intelligent communication systems.
Objective In recent years, visible light communication (VLC) has emerged as a promising next-generation wireless communication technology, particularly suitable for high-speed indoor access. However, its performance is heavily dependent on the line-of-sight (LOS) link. In indoor environments, obstacles such as pedestrians or furniture may obstruct the LOS path, resulting in shadowed areas where communication performance deteriorates significantly, thereby degrading user experience and undermining system reliability. Although some studies have attempted to address this issue by increasing the number of light sources or integrating complementary technologies, these approaches often lead to increased cost and system complexity. Furthermore, most existing research on incorporating intelligent reflective surfaces (IRS) into VLC systems relies on idealized models and fails to effectively guarantee communication quality in complex and dynamic environments involving multiple light sources and obstacles. To address these limitations, this study proposes an innovative and robust system optimization framework aimed at mitigating the shadowing effect in indoor VLC. The primary objective is to develop a collaborative strategy that compensates for transmission link degradation and enhances both communication performance and illumination quality in environments with severe occlusion. This work seeks to validate the feasibility and advantages of the proposed approach in realistic deployment scenarios, offering a novel perspective for the development of high-quality, highly reliable indoor wireless networks. Methods A shadow modeling and system optimization method for environments with multiple light sources and multiple obstacles is proposed in this paper. The system model comprises multiple LED light sources installed on the ceiling, an array of photodetectors (PDs) on the receiving plane, and controllable IRS arrays evenly distributed on the four walls, designed to compensate for blocked LOS signals by reconstructing non-line-of-sight (NLOS) links. A dynamic shadow area analytical model is developed based on spatial geometric projection and Boolean operations. For a single light source, the shadow effect of a cylindrical obstacle on the receiving plane is accurately derived using three-dimensional geometric relationships. For multiple light sources, the concepts of "full shadow" and "half shadow" are introduced, and a feature matrix is innovatively applied for quantitative analysis. Logical operations are then employed to precisely calculate the channel gain under complex occlusion conditions. At the system optimization level, the whale optimization algorithm (WOA) is adopted to obtain the global optimal configuration of the IRS azimuth, and further integrated with a light source layout optimization strategy to form a collaborative solution for mitigating the shadow effect. The optimization objective function covers three key performance indicators: signal-to-noise ratio mean square error, illumination uniformity, and communication outage probability, to meet the performance-focused requirements in different application scenarios. Results and Discussions The effectiveness of the proposed method is systematically validated through simulation experiments. The results indicate that, with fixed light source and obstacle numbers, the IRS-VLC system optimized via WOA achieves significant performance gains across all metrics compared with a traditional VLC system. As the number of obstacles increases, the compensation effect of IRS becomes increasingly prominent, effectively mitigating the degradation of communication and illumination quality caused by severe occlusion. For example, in a complex scenario with two light sources and 16 obstacles, the introduction of IRS reduces the signal-to-noise ratio mean square error by 1.7714 dB and improves illumination uniformity by 0.6314 dBm. More importantly, the joint optimization of light source layout and IRS azimuth significantly outperforms the scheme that optimizes only the IRS. In a representative case with four light sources and eight randomly distributed obstacles, the joint optimization scheme improves the SNR mean square error by 41.2 degrees o and illumination uniformity by 37.5 degrees o over the traditional VLC system when outage probability is used as the optimization objective, and can even completely eliminate communication outages. Conclusions This paper successfully constructs and verifies an innovative channel compensation scheme that combines the assistance of IRS and the optimization of light source layout for the problem of obstacle shadows in indoor VLC systems. Research has confirmed that the proposed shadow model based on geometric optics and Boolean operations can accurately quantify the channel attenuation characteristics in multi-light source and multi-obstacle environments. On this basis, the simulation results clearly show that the introduction of IRS can significantly improve the signal-to-noise ratio distribution and illumination uniformity of the system, and its performance gain is also more obvious when the occlusion environment becomes increasingly complex. Most importantly, jointly optimizing the light source layout with the IRS Angle is the most effective strategy for solving the shadow problem. This strategy can maximize the overall performance of the system without increasing additional hardware costs, and even completely eliminate communication interruptions in specific scenarios, demonstrating strong robustness. The research results of this paper not only demonstrate the necessity and great potential of deploying IRS in VLC systems, but also provide an important theoretical basis and technical solution for the future deployment of high-performance VLC networks in dynamic and complex indoor environments.
Objective In recent years, the search for efficient, low-cost, and interference-resistant indoor positioning technologies has become a key research area. Visible light communication (VLC), based on light-emitting diodes (LEDs), is an emerging technology that offers advantages such as low hardware cost, high bandwidth, strong independence, and no electromagnetic interference. Using visible light positioning (VLP), full coverage of indoor environments and information transmission can be achieved, providing support for device positioning and monitoring. However, the application of deep neural network (DNN) in VLP is limited by high computational complexity and overfitting, which affect its practical use. Deep forest, an ensemble learning method, is more robust in data analysis compared to DNN. Its advantages include lower complexity, fewer hyperparameters, and better adaptability to data. Deep forest automatically generates cascading forest layers, enabling the model to adjust its complexity and perform well even with limited training data. In recent years, deep forest has shown great potential in solving wireless signal positioning problems. This paper proposes an indoor VLP method based on reinforced deep forest. By introducing a self-attention mechanism, the method improves the model's ability to select and weigh input fingerprint features, enhancing its adaptability and discriminative ability in complex signal environments. This method not only improves positioning accuracy but also overcomes the limitations of traditional DNN models in practical applications. Methods The experimental environment for this study is a closed space of 5 m & times; 5 m & times; 3 m. Signal collection is performed using a photodetector array to capture light intensity and incident angle data. The positioning system uses multiple LED emitters to ensure overlapping light coverage, allowing any location in the space to receive optical signals from multiple LEDs. In the offline phase, the receiver area is scanned at 0.2 m intervals, dividing it into 676 grids, and corresponding received signal strength (RSS) feature vectors are collected. These RSS vectors serve as features, and physical position coordinates are used as labels to build a fingerprint database for training the reinforced deep forest model. The input data is processed through the self-attention mechanism, which helps the model identify and emphasize the most important features for prediction while suppressing irrelevant or redundant features. The processed features then pass through a multi-scale scanning phase, which generates feature sub-samples at different scales using a sliding window method. These sub-samples are then input into the random forest for processing, improving feature diversity and expressiveness. The features obtained from the multi-scale scanning are fed into the cascaded forest part of the deep forest. In this part, feature representations are optimized in layers, and each layer's output is used as the input for the next, with the final prediction result obtained from the ensemble of multiple cascaded forests. With the introduction of the self-attention mechanism, deep forest can more accurately weigh and filter features, significantly improving its ability to identify fingerprint features in complex environments and making the model robust in noisy environments. Results and Discussions Self-attention reinforced deep forest (SA-Deep Forest) achieves an overall average error of 0.065 m, with a maximum error of 0. 306 m, outperforming the other three traditional methods in both average and maximum positioning errors. The cumulative distribution function (CDF) curve for SA-Deep Forest shifts to the left. To evaluate the stability of the algorithms, box plots of the error distributions for the four algorithms are generated, and the median, interquartile range (IQR), and variance are assessed. SA-Deep Forest performs the best, with the lowest median and smallest IQR, indicating high stability. Random forest performs second, while DNN and decision tree have wider error distributions, with large differences between the upper and lower quartiles, indicating poor performance. To validate deep forest's advantage with small datasets, the fingerprint database size is reduced by increasing the sampling interval. SA-Deep Forest's curve is closest to the center, indicating that the algorithm has the smallest average root mean square error (RMSE) across various dataset sizes, demonstrating superior and stable performance, mainly due to the self-attention mechanism and the cascaded structure. To assess the robustness of the algorithms under noise, noise is added to the training dataset at various signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) levels. SA-Deep Forest outperforms the other algorithms, maintaining relatively low positioning errors even under low-SNR conditions, which indicates stronger robustness and stability. Conclusions To improve the performance of deep forest in indoor VLP, this paper proposes an reinforced deep forest-based indoor visible light fingerprint dataset positioning method. By introducing a self-attention mechanism, the method dynamically adjusts and optimizes the weights of input fingerprint features, effectively enhancing the expression of key features and suppressing noise and redundant information. This significantly improves deep forest's ability to capture and distinguish fingerprint features in complex environments. The method constructs a fingerprint database using RSS data and inputs it into the reinforced deep forest model for training. In the online stage, real-time collected fingerprint features are input into the model, enabling quick and accurate location estimation. Experimental results show that in a 5 m & times;5 m & times;3 m indoor positioning space, the algorithm achieves an average positioning error of 0.065 m and a maximum error of 0.306 m. Approximately 85% of the test points have positioning errors under 0.1 m, outperforming random forest, DNN, and decision tree in both average and maximum error metrics. This demonstrates superior positioning accuracy and reliability. Additionally, the algorithm shows good stability and robustness, especially when trained with small-scale datasets, where the model still exhibits strong adaptability. Overall, the reinforced deep forest-based indoor visible light fingerprint positioning method not only improves positioning accuracy but also significantly enhances the model's generalization ability and robustness in noisy environments and small sample conditions. This method achieves centimeter-level positioning accuracy, meeting the needs of most complex indoor scenarios, with high practical value and potential for further application.
As the maritime industry continues to thrive and maritime services diversify, the demand for highly reliable maritime communication systems has become increasingly prominent. However, harsh marine conditions pose significant challenges to communication systems. In this work, we propose a Maritime AutoEncoder (MAE) communication system based on Attention Mechanisms (AMs) and DenseBlock (namely AM-Dense-MAE). AM-Dense-MAE utilizes DenseBlock and long short-term memory to extract deep features and capture spatio-temporal relationships, addressing the issue of “long-term dependency”. Furthermore, the decoder incorporates spatial attention modules and convolutional block attention module to enhance the preservation of crucial information and suppress irrelevant data. We employ the Rician fading channel model to simulate maritime communication channels. A substantial volume of data is utilized for model training and parameter optimization. Simulation results demonstrate that, in comparison to the benchmarks, the proposed AM-Dense-MAE exhibits better block error rate performance under various signal-to-noise ratio conditions and showcases generalization capabilities across diverse parameter settings.
Maritime monitoring has become a critical issue for both industry and academia, with the dual goals of ensuring safety and mitigating environmental impacts. This paper proposes a semantic communication system tailored for maritime monitoring, which is based on the Swin transformer-based Deep Semantic Autoencoder (Swin-DSA). The proposed Swin-DSA consists of the camera, encoder, decoder, and classifier. The camera, mounted on an unmanned aerial vehicle, captures images of the maritime monitoring area, whereas the encoder employs swin transformer to extract and encode semantic information from the images, which are then transmitted through maritime wireless communication channels to the shore-based command center. The decoder decodes the signals and restores the semantic information utilizing the swin transformer. Furthermore, the classifier employs the GoogleNet V2 to recognize and classify the decoded images. The proposed Swin-DSA optimizes its network parameters by minimizing both the reconstruction loss and the classification loss. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed Swin-DSA not only achieves the extraction, transmission, restoration, and reconstrution of image semantics, but also outperforms the benchmark in terms of peak signal-to-noise ratio and classification accuracy. Therefore, the proposed Swin-DSA provides a new technical reference for maritime monitoring.
Driven by the continuous growth of maritime activities such as shipping, resource development, and rescue operations, the demand for highly reliable maritime communication is steadily increasing. This paper proposes a maritime end-to-end autoencoder communication system based on compressed channel feedback (CF-Dense-MAE), building on the existing maritime autoencoder communication system, aimed at enhancing the reliability of data transmission in maritime environments. CF-Dense-MAE integrates feedback encoder and decoder to learn richer signal features through channel feedback and quadratic coding. To reduce feedback overhead, we design an efficient compressed channel feedback mechanism by adjusting the output dimension of the feedback encoder and reconstructing the data in the feedback decoder. CF-Dense-MAE has been trained in environments with Rician fading channels and additive white Gaussian noise, and its model parameters are optimized with a large amount of data. Simulation results show that CF-Dense-MAE outperforms the baseline in terms of block error rate performance, validating its stronger generalization capabilities and communication reliability. With lower feedback overhead, CF-Dense-MAE can provide stable and highly reliable communication services, adapting to complex maritime environments.
With the rapid growth of the global marine economy and flourishing maritime activities, the marine Internet of Things (IoT) is gaining unprecedented momentum. However, current marine equipment is deficient in data transmission efficiency and semantic comprehension. To address these issues, this paper proposes a novel End-to-End (E2E) coding scheme, namely the Turbo-based Deep Semantic Autoencoder (Turbo-DSA). The Turbo-DSA achieves joint source-channel coding at the semantic level through the E2E design of transmitter and receiver, while learning to adapt to environment changes. The semantic encoder and decoder are composed of transformer technology, which efficiently converts messages into semantic vectors. These vectors are dynamically adjusted during neural network training according to channel characteristics and background knowledge base. The Turbo structure further enhances the semantic vectors. Specifically, the channel encoder utilizes Turbo structure to separate semantic vectors, ensuring precise transmission of meaning, while the channel decoder employs Turbo iterative decoding to optimize the representation of semantic vectors. This deep integration of the transformer and Turbo structure is ensured by the design of the objective function, semantic extraction, and the entire training process. Compared with traditional Turbo coding techniques, the Turbo-DSA shows a faster convergence speed, thanks to its efficient processing of semantic vectors. Simulation results demonstrate that the Turbo-DSA surpasses existing benchmarks in key performance indicators, such as bilingual evaluation understudy scores and sentence similarity. This is particularly evident under low signal-to-noise ratio conditions, where it shows superior text semantic transmission efficiency and adaptability to variable marine channel environments.
With the prosperous development of the shipping industry, a variety of emerging maritime services are continuously emerging, highlighting the increased importance and necessity for high-reliability maritime communication. Building upon existing research on end-to-end autoencoder communication systems, this paper proposes a densely connected convolutional networks (DenseNet)-based maritime autoencoder communication system (DenseNet-MAE). Specifically, the DenseNet module is employed to take advantage of its cross-layer connectivity and feature reuse for the extraction of deeper features of the transmitted signal. Furthermore, In order to improve the system’s reliability in low signal noise ratio (SNR) environments, the convolutional code (CC) concept is introduced into the DenseNet-MAE using recurrent neural network (RNN). The DenseNet-MAE utilizes the long short term memory (LSTM) to extract the spatio-temporal correlation of data and solve the "long-term dependency" problem. The maritime channel model is simulated utilizing the Rician fading channel. In order to demonstrate the superiority of the DenseNet-MAE, we utilize a large amount of data to train the network and optimize network parameters. Simulation results show that the proposed DenseNet-MAE exhibits excellent error performance and superior generalizability across varying Rician K factors, channel time slots, and coding rates, compared to the benchmark.
With the rapid development of maritime transportation, ocean tourism, monitoring, surveillance and aquaculture, the maritime communication industry has encountered new opportunities. Maritime End-to-end (E2E) communication systems based on deep learning (DL) have become diverse, while semantic communication systems have become a critical research point due to their ability to understand and analyze natural language. In this paper, we propose a deep semantic autoencoder (DSA) for maritime wireless communications. The DSA consists of a semantic encoder, channel encoder, channel decoder, and semantic decoder. The DSA employs transformers and convolutional neural networks to extract and restore the meaning of sentences while minimizing semantic errors during transmission. In order to enhance the effectiveness of the DSA in transmitting maritime data, the Rician fading channel is utilized to simulate complex and varied marine environments. Furthermore, the system parameters of the DSA are optimized through training the maritime data and calculating the loss functions. Extensive simulation experiments indicate that compared to the benchmark, the DSA demonstrates superior bilingual evaluation understudy and sentence similarity performance under different signal-to-noise ratio conditions, indicating its ability to effectively extract semantics.
