The metaverse is emerging as a next-generation internet paradigm that will enhance human interaction and connectivity. Digital twinning, a fundamental strategy used in the metaverse, allows for the virtualization of real-world items, people, actions, and settings. A virtual world called the metaverse is built on a variety of technologies. Wireless communication is an important part of these technologies. In particular, wireless 6G communication can be essential for the growth of the metaverse. In line with the goal of achieving higher rates in the next-generation wireless network for the metaverse, in this paper, a novel conceptualization of intelligent reflecting surface (IRS)-assisted multiple-input single output-based wireless communication in physical world environments is proposed. More specifically, this paper proposes that in the physical world, the IRS-assisted communication between a communication network and users can be reflected in the metaverse through the virtual world (such as digital avatars and the virtual environment). In the simulations, the bit-error rate and spectral efficiency of the receiver terminal were performed and calculated in the metaverse engine for future consideration. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

A reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) has potential for enhancing the performance of wireless communication. A RIS includes cheap passive elements, and the reflecting of signals can be controlled to a specific location of users. In addition, machine learning (ML) techniques are efficient in solving complex problems without explicit programming. Data-driven approaches are efficient in predicting the nature of any problem and can provide a desirable solution. In this paper, we propose a temporal convolutional network (TCN)-based model for RIS-based wireless communication. The proposed model consists of four TCN layers, one fully connected layer, one ReLU layer, and lastly a classification layer. In the input, we provide data in the form of complex numbers to map a specified label under QPSK and BPSK modulation. We consider 2 × 2 and 4 × 4 MIMO communication using one base station and two single-antenna users. We have considered three types of optimizers to evaluate the TCN model. For benchmarking, long short-term memory (LSTM) and without ML are compared. The simulation results are conducted in terms of the bit error rate and symbol error rate which show the effectiveness of the proposed TCN model. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Visible light communication (VLC) has contributed new unused spectrum in addition to the traditional radio frequency communication and can play a significant role in wireless communication. The adaptation of VLC technology enhances wireless connectivity both in indoor and outdoor environments. Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication has been an efficient technique for increasing wireless communications system capacity and performance. With the advantages of MIMO techniques, VLC can achieve an additional degree of freedom. In this paper, we systematically perform a survey of the existing work based on MIMO VLC. We categorize the types of different MIMO techniques, and a brief description is given. Different problem-solving approaches are given in the subsequent sections. In addition, machine learning approaches are also discussed in sufficient detail. Finally, we identify the future study direction for MIMO-based communication in VLC. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) has great potential to implement the fifth-generation (5G) requirements of wireless communication. For a NOMA traditional detection method, successive interference cancellation (SIC) plays a vital role at the receiver side for both uplink and downlink transmission. Due to the complex multipath channel environment and prorogation of error problems, the traditional SIC method has a limited performance. To overcome the limitation of traditional detection methods, the deep-learning method has an advantage for the highly efficient tool. In this paper, a deep neural network which has bi-directional long short-term memory (Bi-LSTM) for multiuser uplink channel estimation (CE) and signal detection of the originally transmitted signal is proposed. Unlike the traditional CE schemes, the proposed Bi-LSTM model can directly recover multiuser transmission signals suffering from channel distortion. In the offline training stage, the Bi-LTSM model is trained using simulation data based on channel statistics. Then, the trained model is used to recover the transmitted symbols in the online deployment stage. In the simulation results, the performance of the proposed model is compared with the convolutional neural network model and traditional CE schemes such as MMSE and LS. It is shown that the proposed method provides feasible improvements in performance in terms of symbol-error rate and signal-to-noise ratio, making it suitable for 5G wireless communication and beyond.
