RMPrior: Bridging Propagation Priors and Diffusion Refinement for Efficient Radio Map Construction

- 从中途开始扩散采样,用传播模型做初始估计。
- 提速2.01倍,同时提升精度与视觉质量。
- 适合需要快速更新地图的动态无线系统。
扩散模型通过迭代去噪实现高保真无线地图构建,但采样成本限制了其在需频繁刷新的地图系统中的实用性。传统传播模型包含宝贵的场景级知识,而标准扩散推理从纯高斯噪声初始化,完全丢弃了这些先验。本文提出一种中段启动采样策略,将匹配的传播先验扰动至中间扩散步数,仅让预训练扩散主干执行剩余反向步骤,将计算聚焦于多径感知的精修而非从噪声重建。理论分析表明:存在初始化误差上界;在特定条件下截断可提升重建保真度;在激进截断下先验质量敏感性有明确定义。在 IRT4HighRes 数据集上,当 $P_{\text{start}}=0.5$ 时,该方法实现 2.01 倍提速,同时优于全步基线的 NMSE、RMSE、SSIM 与 PSNR。三种不同精度的传播模型消融实验验证:重建质量随先验质量提升,且在短反向轨迹下敏感性增强,与理论预测一致。结果表明,中段启动重建质量可作为评估传播模型场景级保真度的代理指标。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Diffusion models achieve high-fidelity radio map construction through iterative denoising, yet their sampling cost limits practicality in dynamic wireless systems where radio maps must be refreshed repeatedly. Meanwhile, classical propagation models encode valuable scene-level knowledge that standard diffusion inference discards entirely by initializing from pure Gaussian noise. This paper bridges propagation priors and diffusion refinement through a mid-start sampling strategy. A matched propagation prior is perturbed to an intermediate diffusion timestep, and the pretrained diffusion backbone executes only the remaining reverse steps, focusing computation on multipath-aware refinement rather than full reconstruction from noise. We provide theoretical analysis establishing an upper bound on the initialization gap, a sufficient condition under which truncation improves reconstruction fidelity, and a formal characterization of prior-quality sensitivity under aggressive truncation. Experiments on IRT4HighRes show that, at $P_{\text{start}}=0.5$, the proposed method achieves a $2.01\times$ speedup while simultaneously improving NMSE, RMSE, SSIM, and PSNR over the full-step baseline. A prior-quality ablation across three propagation models of different fidelity confirms that reconstruction quality tracks prior quality, with the sensitivity amplified under shorter reverse trajectories, consistent with the theoretical predictions. These results also suggest that mid-start reconstruction quality can serve as a proxy for ranking the scene-level fidelity of different propagation models.
