为在复杂无线环境中实现频谱覆盖的全景感知,数据驱动的学习方法被引入无线地图估计(RME)。现有基于深度学习的方法依赖融合中心集中处理分散传感器的测量数据,但存在数据隐私泄露和通信开销高的问题。联邦学习(FL)通过允许客户端协作训练模型而不直接共享本地数据,提升了数据安全性和通信效率。然而,由于客户端间任务异质性(因缺乏或错误的地形信息),基于FL的RME性能受限。为此,本文提出一种无需地形信息的物理启发式分布式RME方案:构建新型分布式框架,融合射频传播模型领域知识,将整体RME模型分为两个模块——全局自编码器共享以捕捉路径损耗对传播模式的共性影响,客户端专属自编码器则学习由本地建筑分布引起的独特阴影效应。仿真结果表明,所提方法在性能上优于基准,在无地形信息条件下仍能实现高精度地图估计。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
To gain panoramic awareness of spectrum coverage in complex wireless environments, data-driven learning approaches have recently been introduced for radio map estimation (RME). While existing deep learning based methods conduct RME given spectrum measurements gathered from dispersed sensors in the region of interest, they rely on centralized data at a fusion center, which however raises critical concerns on data privacy leakages and high communication overloads. Federated learning (FL) enhance data security and communication efficiency in RME by allowing multiple clients to collaborate in model training without directly sharing local data. However, the performance of the FL-based RME can be hindered by the problem of task heterogeneity across clients due to their unavailable or inaccurate landscaping information. To fill this gap, in this paper, we propose a physics-inspired distributed RME solution in the absence of landscaping information. The main idea is to develop a novel distributed RME framework empowered by leveraging the domain knowledge of radio propagation models, and by designing a new distributed learning approach that splits the entire RME model into two modules. A global autoencoder module is shared among clients to capture the common pathloss influence on radio propagation pattern, while a client-specific autoencoder module focuses on learning the individual features produced by local shadowing effects from the unique building distributions in local environment. Simulation results show that our proposed method outperforms the benchmarks in achieving higher performance.
