Self-Evolving In-Context Learning for Direct Pilot-to-Beamformer Design in MU-MISO Systems

- 用上下文学习框架动态构建适配信道的上下文数据集。
- 在多种信道下性能超越传统方法,且无需梯度更新。
- 适合需快速响应新信道环境的5G/6G通信系统应用。
我们提出一种增强型上下文学习(ICL)框架,用于改进多用户多输入单输出(MU-MISO)系统中基于导频的波束成形性能。该方案结合ICL-Transformer主干网络与导频编码器-解码器网络(EDN)及波束成形器EDN。关键优势在于无需重新训练即可处理多种信道模型,依赖于为每种模型构建特定上下文数据集。为提升收敛性与鲁棒性,引入三项创新:(a) 课程学习(CL)策略,从监督式LMMSE标签模仿平滑过渡到无监督和速率最大化;(b) 自进化机制,在CL训练期间动态扩展并优化所有信道模型的上下文数据集;(c) 匹配感知扩展,将多种信道失配纳入通用ICL框架,避免显式信道校准。消融实验验证了上下文架构与增强训练策略的有效性。在多样通信环境下仿真显示,所提方案可在不进行梯度更新的情况下快速适应已见与未见信道模型,并通过智能上下文构造缓解失配问题。此外,该方案在基于导频的设置中持续优于现有波束成形方法,包括WMMSE基准与近期基于Transformer的方法。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
We develop an enhanced in-context learning (ICL) framework to improve the performance of pilot-based beamforming in multi-user multiple-input single-output (MU-MISO) systems. The proposed scheme integrates the ICL-Transformer backbone with the pilot encoder-decoder network (EDN) and the beamformer EDN. A crucial feature of our ICL network is that it can handle multiple channel models without retraining, enabled by the construction of model-specific context datasets. To improve convergence and robustness, we introduce three key innovations: (a) a curriculum learning (CL) strategy that smoothly transitions from supervised LMMSE-labeled imitation to unsupervised sum-rate maximization, (b) a self-evolving mechanism that dynamically expands and refines the context datasets for all channel models during CL-based training, and (c) a mismatch-aware extension that incorporates several mismatches into the general ICL framework and bypasses explicit channel calibrations. Ablation studies validate the effectiveness of the in-context architecture and enhanced training strategies. Simulation results over diverse communication environments show that the proposed scheme is able to rapidly adapt to both seen and unseen channel models without gradient-based parameter updates, and can mitigate the mismatch issues via intelligent context constructions. Furthermore, our scheme consistently outperforms the existing beamforming schemes under pilot-based settings, including the WMMSE benchmark and the recent Transformer-based methods.
