提出SITP协议,在无重传下实现高可靠低延迟语义通信。

SITP: A High-Reliability Semantic Information Transport Protocol Without Retransmission for Semantic Communication

  • 仅校验包头,保留可能损坏的数据包用于语义解码
  • 低SNR下延迟低于TCP,可靠性媲美TCP,重建质量优于UDP
  • 跨图像特征交织提升抗突发丢包能力,适合6G语义通信

随着6G网络发展,现代通信系统面临高可靠与低延迟的双重挑战。传统传输协议基于比特级可靠性设计,难以满足语义鲁棒性需求。为此,本文提出一种新型语义信息传输协议(SITP),通过仅验证包头、保留可能损坏的载荷以供语义解码,实现类TCP的可靠性与类UDP的延迟。在此基础上,构建跨层分析模型,量化物理、数据链路、网络、传输及应用层的丢包概率,建立信噪比(SNR)与丢包率的统一概率公式,为端到端语义传输提供理论支撑。此外,提出跨图像特征交织机制,将相关图像的语义特征分散分布,有效缓解突发衰落信道中的连续丢包问题。大量实验表明,SITP在低SNR下延迟低于TCP,可靠性相当,且重建质量优于UDP;跨图像语义交织机制显著减轻突发丢包导致的性能下降。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

With the evolution of 6G networks, modern communication systems are facing unprecedented demands for high reliability and low latency. However, conventional transport protocols are designed for bit-level reliability, failing to meet the semantic robustness requirements. To address this limitation, this paper proposes a novel Semantic Information Transport Protocol (SITP), which achieves TCP-level reliability and UDP level latency by verifying only packet headers while retaining potentially corrupted payloads for semantic decoding. Building upon SITP, a cross-layer analytical model is established to quantify packet-loss probability across the physical, data-link, network, transport, and application layers. The model provides a unified probabilistic formulation linking signal noise rate (SNR) and packet-loss rate, offering theoretical foundation into end-to-end semantic transmission. Furthermore, a cross-image feature interleaving mechanism is developed to mitigate consecutive burst losses by redistributing semantic features across multiple correlated images, thereby enhancing robustness in burst-fade channels. Extensive experiments show that SITP offers lower latency than TCP with comparable reliability at low SNRs, while matching UDP-level latency and delivering superior reconstruction quality. In addition, the proposed cross-image semantic interleaving mechanism further demonstrates its effectiveness in mitigating degradation caused by bursty packet losses.
