|abstract=Connected autonomous vehicles have boosted a high demand on communication throughput in order to timely share the information collected by in-car sensors (e.g., LiDAR). While visible light communication (VLC) has shown its capability to offer Gigabit-level throughput for applications with high demand for data rate, most are performed indoors and the throughput of outdoor VLC drops to a few Mbps. To fill this performance gap, this paper presents RayTrack, an interference-free outdoor mobile VLC system. The key idea of RayTrack is to use a small but real-time adjustable FOV according to the transmitter location, which can effectively repel interference from the environment and from other transmitters and boost the system throughput. The idea also realizes virtual point-to-point links, and eliminates the need of link access control. To be able to minimize the transmitter detection time to only 20 ms, RayTrack leverages a high-compression-ratio compressive sensing scheme, incorporating a dual-photodiode architecture, optimized measurement matrix and Gaussian-based basis to increase sparsity. Real-world driving experiments show that RayTrack is able to achieve a data rate of 607.9 kbps with over 90% detection accuracy and lower than 15% bit error rate at 35 m, with 70 - 100 km/hr driving speed. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first working outdoor VLC system which can offer such range, throughput and error performance while accommodating freeway mobility.
|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=Volumetric videos offer viewers more immersive experiences, enabling a variety of applications. However, state-of-the-art streaming systems still need hundreds of Mbps, exceeding the common bandwidth capabilities of mobile devices. We find a research gap in reusing inter-frame redundant information to reduce bandwidth consumption, while the existing inter-frame compression methods rely on the so-called explicit correlation, i.e., the redundancy from the same/adjacent locations in the previous frame, which does not apply to highly dynamic frames or dynamic viewports. This work introduces a new concept called implicit correlation, i.e., the consistency of topological structures, which stably exists in dynamic frames and is beneficial for reducing bandwidth consumption. We design a mobile volumetric video streaming system Hermes consisting of an implicit correlation encoder to reduce bandwidth consumption and a hybrid streaming method that adapts to dynamic viewports. Experiments show that Hermes achieves a frame rate of 30+ FPS over daily networks and on commodity smartphones, with at least 3.37x improvement compared with two baselines.
|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.

    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.
