Federated Learning in Wireless Networks

The field of federated learning in wireless networks is moving towards addressing the challenges of straggler delays, communication overhead, and privacy preservation. Researchers are exploring innovative solutions such as pinching-antenna systems, differential privacy, and coherence-aware distributed learning to improve the efficiency and accuracy of federated learning in wireless networks. Notable papers in this area include:

  • Pinching-antenna-enabled Federated Learning, which investigates the use of pinching-antenna systems to shorten the worst links and increase the on-time completion probability in asynchronous federated learning.
  • Differential Privacy as a Perk, which demonstrates that differential privacy can be achieved without employing artificial noise in over-the-air federated learning.
  • Fed-PELAD, which proposes a novel federated learning framework that incorporates personalized encoders and a LoRA-adapted shared decoder to reduce communication overhead and improve CSI feedback accuracy.
  • Coherence-Aware Distributed Learning, which introduces a resource-reuse strategy based on product superposition to efficiently schedule both static and dynamic devices in practical wireless federated learning systems.
  • Non-Convex Over-the-Air Heterogeneous Federated Learning, which develops novel OTA-FL SGD updates that allow a structured, time-invariant model bias while facilitating reduced variance updates.
