|abstract=Low Power Wide Area Networks (LPWAN) such as Long Range (LoRa) show great potential in emerging aquatic IoT applications. However, our deployment experience shows that the floating LPWAN suffer significant performance degradation, compared to the static terrestrial deployments. Our measurement results reveal the reason behind this is due to the polarization and directivity of the antenna. The dynamic attitude of a floating node incurs varying signal strength losses, which is ignored by the attitude-oblivious link model adopted in most of the existing methods. When accessing the channel at a misaligned attitude, packet errors can happen. In this paper, we propose an attitude-aware link model that explicitly quantifies the impact of node attitude on link quality. Based on the new model, we propose PolarTracker, a novel channel access method for floating LPWAN. PolarTracker tracks the node attitude alignment state and schedules the transmissions into the aligned periods with better link quality. We implement a prototype of PolarTracker on commercial LoRa platforms and extensively evaluate its performance in various real-world environments. The experimental results show that PolarTracker can efficiently improve the packet reception ratio by 48.8%, compared with ALOHA in LoRaWAN.
|abstract = LoRa technology promises to enable Internet of Things applications over large geographical areas. However, its performance is often hampered by poor channel quality in urban environments, where blockage and multipath effects are prevalent. Our study uncovers that a slight shift in the position or attitude of the receiving antenna can substantially improve the received signal quality. This phenomenon can be attributed to the rich multipath characteristics of wireless signal propagation in urban environments, wherein even small antenna movement can alter the dominant signal path or reduce the polarization angular difference between transceivers. Leveraging these key observations, we propose and implement MoLoRa, an intelligent mobile antenna system designed to enhance LoRa packet reception. At its core, MoLoRa represents the position and attitude of an antenna as a state and employs a statistical optimization method to search for states that offer optimal signal quality efficiently. Through extensive evaluation, we demonstrate that MoLoRa achieves a maximum Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) gain of 13 dB in a few attempts, enabling formerly problematic blind spots to reconnect and strengthening links for other nodes.

|abstract=Due to the limited computing capacity in mobile devices, device-to-device (D2D) computation offloading has been proposed as a promising solution to improving the quality of service in the Internet of things (IoT) networks, by allowing mobile devices to exploit spare computing resources in nearby user devices. However, a major challenge to realizing this new paradigm is how to effectively motivate user devices to participate as computation providers (CPs) for computation requesters (CRs), which is further exacerbated by the fact that user incentives are usually coupled with information asymmetry between the network operator and user devices. This has not been sufficiently studied for D2D computation offloading. In this paper, we propose a signaling-based incentive mechanism that leverages contract theory to address information asymmetry for D2D computation offloading. Based on the proposed contract-based incentive mechanism, we also solve the many-to-many CP-CR pairing problem by devising a polynomial-complexity matching scheme. Simulation results show that our proposed algorithm can effectively motivate user devices to participate in D2D computation offloading and select the most appropriate CPs to perform the computation tasks for corresponding CRs.
|abstract =Large language models (LLMs) achieve superior performance in generative tasks. However, due to the natural gap between language model generation and structured information extraction in three dimensions: task type, output format, and modeling granularity, they often fall short in structured information extraction, a crucial capability for effective data utilization on the web. In this paper, we define the generation process of the language model as the controllable state transition, aligning the generation and extraction processes to ensure the integrity of the output structure and adapt to the goals of the information extraction task. Furthermore, we propose the Structure2Text decider to help the language model understand the fine-grained extraction information, which converts the structured output into natural language and makes state decisions, thereby focusing on the task-specific information kernels, and alleviating language model hallucinations and incorrect content generation. We conduct extensive experiments and detailed analyses on myriad information extraction tasks, including named entity recognition, relation extraction, and event argument extraction. Our method not only achieves significant performance improvements but also considerably enhances the model's capability to generate precise and relevant content, making the extracted content easy to parse.
