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 aggregation 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 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.
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.
This paper studies a federated edge learning system, in which an edge server coordinates a set of edge devices to train a shared machine learning model based on their locally distributed data samples. During the distributed training, we exploit the j
oint communication and computation design for improving the system energy efficiency, in which both the communication resource allocation for global ML parameters aggregation and the computation resource allocation for locally updating MLparameters are jointly optimized. In particular, we consider two transmission protocols for edge devices to upload ML parameters to edge server, based on the non orthogonal multiple access and time division multiple access, respectively. Under both protocols, we minimize the total energy consumption at all edge devices over a particular finite training duration subject to a given training accuracy, by jointly optimizing the transmission power and rates at edge devices for uploading MLparameters and their central processing unit frequencies for local update. We propose efficient algorithms to optimally solve the formulated energy minimization problems by using the techniques from convex optimization. Numerical results show that as compared to other benchmark schemes, our proposed joint communication and computation design significantly improves the energy efficiency of the federated edge learning system, by properly balancing the energy tradeoff between communication and computation.
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.
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 leveragi
ng 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.
