Belief propagation (BP) is widely used for data association (DA) in target tracking. Existing convergence analyses of BP for DA address only the two-way correspondence between targets and measurements, where each target generates at most one measurement per scan. Multipath DA (MPDA) allows a single target to produce multiple measurements via distinct propagation paths, creating a three-way correspondence among targets, paths, and measurements, for which a complete convergence proof has not yet been provided. We provide such a proof for the BP updates in MPDA, establishing convergence to a unique fixed point. Simulations illustrate the convergence behavior of BP in MPDA and demonstrate a favorable accuracy--efficiency trade-off relative to both single-scan and two-scan variants of the multiple-detection multiple-hypothesis tracker.
Batteryless overlays couple passive throughput to Wi-Fi sounding overhead and channel state information (CSI) aging. This paper investigates channel sounding for ultra-high reliability (UHR) operation in a Wi-Fi 8/IEEE 802.11bn-inspired downlink multi-user multiple-input multiple…
Over-the-air (OTA) computation has recently gained significant attentions as an effective approach to enhance the communication efficiency of wireless federated learning (FL). By enabling simultaneous transmission and aggregation of local model updates, OTA-FL can substantially r…
Classical rate-distortion (RD) theory has long established the fundamental limits of lossy compression by quantifying the minimum number of bits required to represent a source under a prescribed distortion constraint. However, widely used distortion measures such as mean-squared…
Organic electrochemical transistor (OECT)-based molecular communication (MC) receivers connect transport and binding to device current, noise, calibration, and detection. We present MC-BRIDGE (Molecular Communication Bioelectronic Receiver-chain Integrated Design and Guided Evalu…
Recently, it has been reported that one-bit massive MIMO (mMIMO) detection is equivalent to a binary classification problem that can be solved efficiently using support vector machine (SVM). Inspired by this result, we first reformulate SVM in a decentralized form consisting of m…
Covariance steering provides an efficient framework for designing linear stochastic feedback policies, but its extension to nonlinear systems relies on a Gaussian surrogate obtained through local linearization. Because this surrogate may differ substantially from the true nonline…
