Abstract
High-speed cellular connectivity for drones (UAVs) is a key requirement for infrastructure monitoring and live broadcasting applications, among others. Different from ground mobile phones (UEs), however, UAVs benefit from unique line-of-sight conditions to multiple base stations (BSs), which may result in degraded performances for UEs in the surroundings. We experimentally evaluate this effect on a controlled LTE testbed, measuring up to $21.75\:\mathrmMbps $ uplink throughput reduction for ground UEs in presence of UAVs. To mitigate this effect, we propose a new approach designed to reduce interference to adjacent BSs through a combination of steerable directional transmitters and optimized flight control. We design a control mechanism to jointly optimize the trajectory of the drone and the directional orientation of the uplink transmission. Based on an empirical characterization of aerial signal propagation in 3D, the proposed control algorithms solve optimal trajectory problems on a directed graph representation of the aerial space. Our evaluation shows average interference reduction at neighboring BSs of $5.87\:\mathrmdB $ and average improvement of the drone signal-to-noise ratio of $9.23\:\mathrmdB $ compared to traditional channel-unaware flight control solutions employing omni-directional transmitters.

- Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
- We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
- We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
- The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
- Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
