Summary: A study of existing MAC protocols for Cognitive Radio based Wireless Network (CRWN) reveals that these protocols are designed for optimizing individual node performance rather than the network performance. To address this gap, the framework of existing MAC protocol is modified in this paper to achieve global optimized performance at the network level. A realistic approach based on incomplete information is presented, and a game theoretical framework is applied to improve network performance in terms of channel capacity, throughput, and delay. Simulation results show significant improvements in collision avoidance, delay reduction, energy consumption, and overall network throughput.

Summary: In this paper, a communication-efficient federated learning framework is presented, inspired by quantized compressed sensing. The framework includes gradient compression for wireless devices and gradient reconstruction for a parameter server. By leveraging both dimension reduction and quantization, a higher compression ratio than one-bit gradient compression can be achieved. An approximate minimum mean square error (MMSE) approach for gradient reconstruction using the expectation-maximization generalized-approximate-message-passing (EM-GAMP) algorithm is proposed for accurate aggregation of local gradients from the compressed signals.

Summary: In this letter, the problem of determining the capacity of a communication channel is approached as a cooperative game between a generator and a discriminator. Deep learning techniques are used to solve this problem. The generator's task is to produce channel input samples that can be ideally distinguished by the discriminator. The approach, known as cooperative channel capacity learning (CORTICAL), provides both the optimal input signal distribution and the estimated capacity of the channel. Numerical results show that the proposed framework can learn the capacity-achieving input distribution even in non-Shannon settings.

Summary: This paper focuses on a network scenario where a multi-antenna access point serves multiple single-antenna users in the presence of multiple eavesdroppers, with the aid of a reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS). The RIS employs low-resolution programmable reflecting elements (PREs) for cost-effective implementation. In order to establish secure links for all users, we consider the joint design of the transmit beamformers and PREs to maximize either the geometric mean of secrecy rates or the worst user's secrecy rate. Novel computational algorithms of low computational complexity are developed for the solution of these mixed discrete continuous optimization problems. Simulations show the merit of the proposed designs in achieving fair secrecy rate distributions and ensuring secure links for all users.
