Over-the-air computation (AirComp), which leverages the superposition property of wireless multiple-access channel (MAC) and the mathematical tool of function representation, has been considered as a promising technique for effective collection and computation of massive sensor data in wireless Big Data applications. In most of the existing work on AirComp, optimal system-parameter design is commonly considered under the peak-power constraint of each sensor. In this paper, we propose an optimal transmitter-receiver (Tx-Rx) parameter design problem to minimize the computation mean-squared error (MSE) of an AirComp system under the sum-power constraint of the sensors. We solve the non-convex problem and obtain a closed-form solution. Also, we investigate another problem that minimizes the sum power of the sensors under the constraint of computation MSE. Our results show that in both of the problems, the sensors with poor and good channel conditions should use less power than the ones with moderate channel conditions.

Over-the-air computation (AirComp) leveraging the superposition property of wireless multiple-access channel (MAC), is a promising technique for effective data collection and computation of large-scale wireless sensor measurements in Internet of Thin gs applications. Most existing work on AirComp only considered computation of spatial-and-temporal independent sensor signals, though in practice different sensor measurement signals are usually correlated. In this letter, we propose an AirComp system with spatial-and-temporal correlated sensor signals, and formulate the optimal AirComp policy design problem for achieving the minimum computation mean-squared error (MSE). We develop the optimal AirComp policy with the minimum computation MSE in each time step by utilizing the current and the previously received signals. We also propose and optimize a low-complexity AirComp policy in closed form with the performance approaching to the optimal policy.

This paper investigates the transmission power control in over-the-air federated edge learning (Air-FEEL) system. Different from conventional power control designs (e.g., to minimize the individual mean squared error (MSE) of the over-the-air aggrega tion at each round), we consider a new power control design aiming at directly maximizing the convergence speed. Towards this end, we first analyze the convergence behavior of Air-FEEL (in terms of the optimality gap) subject to aggregation errors at different communication rounds. It is revealed that if the aggregation estimates are unbiased, then the training algorithm would converge exactly to the optimal point with mild conditions; while if they are biased, then the algorithm would converge with an error floor determined by the accumulated estimate bias over communication rounds. Next, building upon the convergence results, we optimize the power control to directly minimize the derived optimality gaps under both biased and unbiased aggregations, subject to a set of average and maximum power constraints at individual edge devices. We transform both problems into convex forms, and obtain their structured optimal solutions, both appearing in a form of regularized channel inversion, by using the Lagrangian duality method. Finally, numerical results show that the proposed power control policies achieve significantly faster convergence for Air-FEEL, as compared with benchmark policies with fixed power transmission or conventional MSE minimization.
Over-the-air computation (OAC) is a promising technique to realize fast model aggregation in the uplink of federated edge learning. OAC, however, hinges on accurate channel-gain precoding and strict synchronization among the edge devices, which are c hallenging in practice. As such, how to design the maximum likelihood (ML) estimator in the presence of residual channel-gain mismatch and asynchronies is an open problem. To fill this gap, this paper formulates the problem of misaligned OAC for federated edge learning and puts forth a whitened matched filtering and sampling scheme to obtain oversampled, but independent, samples from the misaligned and overlapped signals. Given the whitened samples, a sum-product ML estimator and an aligned-sample estimator are devised to estimate the arithmetic sum of the transmitted symbols. In particular, the computational complexity of our sum-product ML estimator is linear in the packet length and hence is significantly lower than the conventional ML estimator. Extensive simulations on the test accuracy versus the average received energy per symbol to noise power spectral density ratio (EsN0) yield two main results: 1) In the low EsN0 regime, the aligned-sample estimator can achieve superior test accuracy provided that the phase misalignment is non-severe. In contrast, the ML estimator does not work well due to the error propagation and noise enhancement in the estimation process. 2) In the high EsN0 regime, the ML estimator attains the optimal learning performance regardless of the severity of phase misalignment. On the other hand, the aligned-sample estimator suffers from a test-accuracy loss caused by phase misalignment.
Over-the-air computation (AirComp) has been recognized as a low-latency solution for wireless sensor data fusion, where multiple sensors send their measurement signals to a receiver simultaneously for computation. Most existing work only considered p erforming AirComp over a single frequency channel. However, for a sensor network with a massive number of nodes, a single frequency channel may not be sufficient to accommodate the large number of sensors, and the AirComp performance will be very limited. So it is highly desirable to have more frequency channels for large-scale AirComp systems to benefit from multi-channel diversity. In this letter, we propose an $M$-frequency AirComp system, where each sensor selects a subset of the $M$ frequencies and broadcasts its signal over these channels under a certain power constraint. We derive the optimal sensors transmission and receivers signal processing methods separately, and develop an algorithm for joint design to achieve the best AirComp performance. Numerical results show that increasing one frequency channel can improve the AirComp performance by threefold compared to the single-frequency case.
The integration of renewables into electrical grids calls for the development of tailored control schemes which in turn require reliable grid models. In many cases, the grid topology is known but the actual parameters are not exactly known. This pape r proposes a new approach for online parameter estimation in power systems based on optimal experimental design using multiple measurement snapshots. In contrast to conventional methods, our method computes optimal excitations extracting the maximum information in each estimation step to accelerate convergence. The performance of the proposed method is illustrated on a case study.
