With the aim of integrating over-the-air federated learning (AirFL) and non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) into an on-demand universal framework, this paper proposes a novel reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS)-aided hybrid network by leveraging the RIS to flexibly adjust the signal processing order of heterogeneous data. The objective of this work is to maximize the achievable hybrid rate by jointly optimizing the transmit power, controlling the receive scalar, and designing the phase shifts. Since the concurrent transmissions of all computation and communication signals are aided by the discrete phase shifts at the RIS, the considered problem (P0) is a challenging mixed integer programming problem. To tackle this intractable issue, we decompose the original problem (P0) into a non-convex problem (P1) and a combinatorial problem (P2), which are characterized by the continuous and discrete variables, respectively. For the transceiver design problem (P1), the power allocation subproblem is first solved by invoking the difference-of-convex programming, and then the receive control subproblem is addressed by using the successive convex approximation, where the closed-form expressions of simplified cases are derived to obtain deep insights. For the reflection design problem (P2), the relaxation-then-quantization method is adopted to find a suboptimal solution for striking a trade-off between complexity and performance. Afterwards, an alternating optimization algorithm is developed to solve the non-linear and non-convex problem (P0) iteratively. Finally, simulation results reveal that 1) the proposed RIS-aided hybrid network can support the on-demand communication and computation efficiently, 2) the performance gains can be improved by properly selecting the location of the RIS, and 3) the designed algorithms are also applicable to conventional networks with only AirFL or NOMA users.

Federated learning (FL) as a promising edge-learning framework can effectively address the latency and privacy issues by featuring distributed learning at the devices and model aggregation in the central server. In order to enable efficient wireless
data aggregation, over-the-air computation (AirComp) has recently been proposed and attracted immediate attention. However, fading of wireless channels can produce aggregate distortions in an AirComp-based FL scheme. To combat this effect, the concept of dynamic learning rate (DLR) is proposed in this work. We begin our discussion by considering multiple-input-single-output (MISO) scenario, since the underlying optimization problem is convex and has closed-form solution. We then extend our studies to more general multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) case and an iterative method is derived. Extensive simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme in reducing the aggregate distortion and guaranteeing the testing accuracy using the MNIST and CIFAR10 datasets. In addition, we present the asymptotic analysis and give a near-optimal receive beamforming design solution in closed form, which is verified by numerical simulations.
Enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB) and ultrareliable and low-latency communications (URLLC) are two major expected services in the fifth-generation mobile communication systems (5G). Specifically, eMBB applications support extremely high data rate comm
unications, while URLLC services aim to provide stringent latency with high reliability communications. Due to their differentiated quality-of-service (QoS) requirements, the spectrum sharing between URLLC and eMBB services becomes a challenging scheduling issue. In this paper, we aim to investigate the URLLC and eMBB coscheduling/coexistence problem under a puncturing technique in multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) systems. The objective function is formulated to maximize the data rate of eMBB users while satisfying the latency requirements of URLLC users through joint user selection and power allocation scheduling. To solve this problem, we first introduce an eMBB user clustering mechanism to balance the system performance and computational complexity. Thereafter, we decompose the original problem into two subproblems, namely the scheduling problem of user selection and power allocation. We introduce a Gale-Shapley (GS) theory to solve with the user selection problem, and a successive convex approximation (SCA) and a difference of convex (D.C.) programming to deal with the power allocation problem. Finally, an iterative algorithm is utilized to find the global solution with low computational complexity. Numerical results show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms, and also verify the proposed approach outperforms other baseline methods.
Over-the-air federated edge learning (Air-FEEL) is a communication-efficient solution for privacy-preserving distributed learning over wireless networks. Air-FEEL allows one-shot over-the-air aggregation of gradient/model-updates by exploiting the wa
veform superposition property of wireless channels, and thus promises an extremely low aggregation latency that is independent of the network size. However, such communication efficiency may come at a cost of learning performance degradation due to the aggregation error caused by the non-uniform channel fading over devices and noise perturbation. Prior work adopted channel inversion power control (or its variants) to reduce the aggregation error by aligning the channel gains, which, however, could be highly suboptimal in deep fading scenarios due to the noise amplification. To overcome this issue, we investigate the power control optimization for enhancing the learning performance of Air-FEEL. Towards this end, we first analyze the convergence behavior of the Air-FEEL by deriving the optimality gap of the loss-function under any given power control policy. Then we optimize the power control to minimize the optimality gap for accelerating convergence, subject to a set of average and maximum power constraints at edge devices. The problem is generally non-convex and challenging to solve due to the coupling of power control variables over different devices and iterations. To tackle this challenge, we develop an efficient algorithm by jointly exploiting the successive convex approximation (SCA) and trust region methods. Numerical results show that the optimized power control policy achieves significantly faster convergence than the benchmark policies such as channel inversion and uniform power transmission.
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.
Massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) and non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) are two key techniques for enabling massive connectivity in future wireless networks. A massive MIMO-NOMA system can deliver remarkable spectral improvements and
low communication latency. Nevertheless, the uncontrollable stochastic behavior of the wireless channels can still degrade its performance. In this context, intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) has arisen as a promising technology for smartly overcoming the harmful effects of the wireless environment. The disruptive IRS concept of controlling the propagation channels via software can provide attractive performance gains to the communication networks, including higher data rates, improved user fairness, and, possibly, higher energy efficiency. In this article, in contrast to the existing literature, we demonstrate the main roles of IRSs in MIMO-NOMA systems. Specifically, we identify and perform a comprehensive discussion of the main performance gains that can be achieved in IRS-assisted massive MIMO-NOMA (IRS-NOMA) networks. We outline exciting futuristic use case scenarios for IRS-NOMA and expose the main related challenges and future research directions. Furthermore, throughout the article, we support our in-depth discussions with representative numerical results.
