Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of wireless communication, and more particularly to a joint semantic coding-transmission method for high mobility scenarios. Background Technology

[0002] In highly mobile scenarios (such as high-speed rail, autonomous driving, drones, and aerospace), the communication channel environment exhibits high dynamism and complexity. Simultaneously, with the widespread application of high-speed mobile scenarios, users' demand for massive data transmission is increasing daily, and existing communication technologies struggle to meet the high-capacity, high-reliability communication requirements of complex high-speed mobile environments. Currently, to optimize semantic communication systems in multipath fading channel environments, Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) technology, which has good resistance to multipath interference, has been introduced into semantic communication systems.

[0003] However, in high-speed, complex scenarios, the dynamic nature of transportation vehicles such as autonomous vehicles, high-speed trains, and aircraft leads to a highly time-varying communication environment. Channels exhibit significant time and frequency selectivity, which severely impacts the quality of semantic information transmission. Significant Doppler shift and severe signal attenuation pose serious challenges to semantic communication systems, resulting in a sharp decline in transmission performance for OFDM-based semantic communication systems. Therefore, improving the transmission performance of semantic communication systems in highly mobile scenarios is a crucial technical problem that this invention aims to solve. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Based on the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides a joint semantic coding-transmission method for high mobility scenarios, which aims to overcome the above problems or at least partially solve them.

[0005] The first aspect of this invention provides a joint semantic coding-transmission method for high-mobility scenarios, the method comprising:

[0006] In a semantic communication system, the sending end extracts the original semantic features of the original data and obtains the original data stream based on the original semantic features.

[0007] The transmitting end maps the original data stream onto the time-delay-Doppler domain resource grid through an orthogonal time-frequency spatial modulator, inserts a pilot sequence to obtain an orthogonal time-frequency spatial frame, and modulates the orthogonal time-frequency spatial frame to obtain a time-domain transmission signal;

[0008] The transmitting end sends the time-domain transmission signal to the receiving end through a channel in a high-mobility scenario between itself and the receiving end in the semantic communication system;

[0009] The receiving end demodulates the received time-domain received signal through an orthogonal time-frequency spatial demodulator to obtain a time-delay-Doppler domain received signal;

[0010] The receiving end uses the time-delay-Doppler domain received signal to perform channel estimation through the channel estimation module, and obtains the estimated channel matrix;

[0011] The receiving end uses the estimated channel matrix and the time-delay-Doppler domain to receive the signal, obtains the reconstructed data stream, and obtains the reconstructed data based on the reconstructed data stream.

[0012] In the joint semantic coding-transmission method for high mobility scenarios proposed in this invention, orthogonal time-frequency space (OTFS) modulation technology is introduced into the semantic communication system by combining the channel characteristics of high mobility scenarios. By mapping the original data stream to the delay-Doppler (DD) domain for transmission, it has transmission advantages in the Doppler channel environment, effectively suppressing the Doppler effect, and providing a solution for semantic information transmission in high-speed and complex scenarios. Furthermore, to address the high complexity of DD domain channel estimation, this invention proposes a DD domain pilot pattern to reduce inter-signal interference: The original data stream obtained from the transmitter is mapped onto a time-delay-Doppler domain resource grid using an orthogonal time-frequency spatial modulator, and a pilot sequence is inserted to obtain an orthogonal time-frequency spatial frame. This frame is then modulated to obtain the time-domain transmission signal to be transmitted. Thus, when the receiver demodulates the received time-domain signal using an orthogonal time-frequency spatial demodulator to obtain the time-delay-Doppler domain received signal and performs channel estimation, the interference of data on the pilot is reduced, achieving low-overhead, low-complexity channel estimation. Through the coordinated optimization of semantic coding and transmission waveform, efficient and reliable transmission of semantic information in highly mobile scenarios is achieved, improving the transmission performance of semantic communication systems in highly mobile scenarios.

[0020] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0021] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating the steps of a joint semantic coding-transmission method for high-mobility scenarios, as shown in an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the joint semantic coding-transmission method for high-mobility scenarios provided in this embodiment includes at least the following steps:

[0022] Step S11: The sending end in the semantic communication system extracts the original semantic features of the original data and obtains the original data stream based on the original semantic features.

[0023] In this embodiment, the semantic communication system includes: a transmitter, a channel for high-mobility scenarios, and a receiver. High-mobility scenarios refer to communication or control environments on high-speed mobile carriers such as vehicles, airplanes, and high-speed trains, characterized by high dynamism and stringent real-time requirements, resulting in significant Doppler shift. In an optional embodiment, a high-mobility scenario can refer to a mobile scenario where the relative speed between the carrier and the ground base station exceeds a target threshold (e.g., 300 km / h, without specific limitation).

[0024] For the raw data, the sending end can first perform semantic encoding on the raw data to extract the raw semantic features, and then sequentially process the raw semantic features through channel coding and constellation modulation to obtain the raw data stream. The raw data stream includes multiple raw data symbols. In this embodiment, the raw data can be any type of data to be transmitted, such as image data, video data, text data, etc., without any limitation.

[0025] Step S12: The transmitting end maps the original data stream onto the time-delay-Doppler domain resource grid through an orthogonal time-frequency spatial modulator, inserts a pilot sequence to obtain an orthogonal time-frequency spatial frame, and modulates the orthogonal time-frequency spatial frame to obtain a time-domain transmission signal.

[0026] In this embodiment, orthogonal time-frequency spatial modulation technology is introduced into the semantic communication system. The transmitting end includes at least an orthogonal time-frequency spatial modulator. Based on the channel sparsity in the delay-Doppler domain (DD domain), this embodiment designs a DD domain pilot pattern: the original data stream is mapped onto the delay-Doppler domain resource grid through the orthogonal time-frequency spatial modulator, and a pilot sequence is inserted to obtain an orthogonal time-frequency spatial frame. After obtaining the orthogonal time-frequency spatial frame, the transmitting end can perform orthogonal time-frequency spatial modulation on the orthogonal time-frequency spatial frame through the orthogonal time-frequency spatial modulator to obtain a time-domain transmission signal. The pilot sequence includes multiple pilot symbols. In this embodiment, the orthogonal time-frequency spatial frame is a delay-Doppler domain transmission signal, including multiple delay-Doppler domain transmission symbols.

[0027] In an alternative example, the orthogonal time-frequency spatial modulator can first transform the orthogonal time-frequency spatial frame to the time-frequency domain through the inverse symplectic finite Fourier transform (ISFFT), and then generate the time-domain transmission signal through the inverse M-point discrete Fourier transform (IDFT) and pulse shaping.

[0028] Step S13: The transmitting end sends the time-domain transmission signal to the receiving end through a channel in a high-mobility scenario between itself and the receiving end in the semantic communication system.

[0029] In this embodiment, after receiving the time-domain transmission signal, the transmitting end can send the time-domain transmission signal to the receiving end through the channel of the high-mobility scenario between the receiving ends in the semantic communication system.

[0030] Step S14: The receiving end demodulates the received time-domain received signal through an orthogonal time-frequency spatial demodulator to obtain a time-delay-Doppler domain received signal.

[0031] In this embodiment, the receiving end can receive the time-domain transmitted signal through the channel in a high-mobility scenario between the sending and receiving ends in the semantic communication system, thus obtaining the received time-domain received signal. It can be understood that the relationship between the time-domain received signal and the time-domain transmitted signal is as follows: the time-domain received signal is obtained based on the time-domain channel matrix, the time-domain transmitted signal, and the noise of the channel.

[0032] The receiver includes at least an orthogonal time-frequency spatial demodulator. After receiving the time-domain received signal, the receiver can use the orthogonal time-frequency spatial demodulator to perform orthogonal time-frequency spatial demodulation on the received time-domain received signal to obtain the time-delay-Doppler domain received signal. The time-delay-Doppler domain received signal includes multiple time-delay-Doppler domain received symbols.

[0033] In an alternative example, the orthogonal time-frequency spatial modulator can sequentially pass the time-domain received signal through matched filtering, M-point Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT), and Symptotic Finite Fourier Transform (SFFT) to obtain the time-delay-Doppler domain received signal.

[0034] Step S15: The receiving end uses the time-delay-Doppler domain received signal to perform channel estimation through the channel estimation module, and obtains the estimated channel matrix.

[0035] In this embodiment, after receiving the time-delay-Doppler domain received signal, the receiver can use the channel estimation module in the receiver to perform channel estimation using the time-delay-Doppler domain received signal to obtain the estimated channel matrix for the detection of semantic information symbols.

[0036] Step S16: The receiving end uses the estimated channel matrix and the time delay-Doppler domain to receive the signal, obtains the reconstructed data stream, and obtains the reconstructed data based on the reconstructed data stream.

[0037] In this embodiment, after the receiver obtains the estimated channel matrix, it can process the estimated channel matrix and the obtained delay-Doppler domain received signal to obtain a reconstructed data stream. The reconstructed data stream is then processed to obtain reconstructed semantic features. The reconstructed semantic features are then semantically decoded to obtain the reconstructed data corresponding to the original data, thereby realizing the wireless transmission of the original data in high mobility scenarios.

[0038] In one optional embodiment, the receiver first performs signal detection based on the estimated channel matrix and the received signal in the delay-Doppler domain to obtain the reconstructed data stream, and then sequentially passes the reconstructed data stream through constellation demodulation and channel decoding to obtain the reconstructed semantic features.

[0039] In this embodiment, considering the channel characteristics of high-mobility scenarios, orthogonal time-frequency spatial modulation (ODSM) technology is introduced into the semantic communication system. By mapping the original data stream to the delay-Doppler domain for transmission, it has transmission advantages in the Doppler channel environment, effectively suppressing the Doppler effect and providing a solution for semantic information transmission in high-speed, complex scenarios. Furthermore, to address the high complexity of DD domain channel estimation, this invention proposes a DD domain pilot pattern to reduce inter-signal interference: the original data stream obtained from the transmitter is mapped onto the delay-Doppler domain resource grid using an orthogonal time-frequency spatial modulator, and a pilot sequence is inserted to obtain an orthogonal time-frequency spatial frame. This frame is then modulated to obtain the time-domain transmission signal to be sent. Thus, when the receiver demodulates the received time-domain signal using an orthogonal time-frequency spatial demodulator to obtain the delay-Doppler domain received signal and performs channel estimation, it can reduce data interference to the pilot, achieving low-overhead, low-complexity channel estimation. Therefore, through the coordinated optimization of semantic coding and transmission waveform, efficient and reliable transmission of semantic information in high-mobility scenarios is achieved.

[0040] In conjunction with the above embodiments, in one implementation, the present invention also provides a joint semantic coding-transmission method for high-mobility scenarios, wherein, in addition to the above steps, the method may further include steps S21 and S22:

[0041] Step S21: The receiver feeds back the estimated channel matrix to the semantic encoder in the transmitter.

[0042] In this embodiment, the transmitting end also includes a semantic encoder to semantically encode the original data and obtain the original semantic features. After obtaining the estimated channel matrix, the receiving end can also feed the estimated channel matrix back to the semantic encoder in the transmitting end as channel state information (CSI), serving as one of the inputs to the semantic encoder.

[0043] Step S22: The transmitting end uses the estimated channel matrix as a priori and performs semantic extraction on the next raw data through the semantic encoder to obtain the original semantic features of the next raw data.

[0044] In this embodiment, after receiving the estimated channel matrix, the transmitting end can use the estimated channel matrix as a priori to perform semantic extraction on the next raw data through a semantic encoder to obtain the original semantic features of the next raw data. Specifically, for the transmission of the next raw data, the input of the semantic encoder includes at least the estimated channel matrix and the next raw data. The semantic encoder obtains the original semantic features of the next raw data by performing semantic encoding on the estimated channel matrix and the next raw data.

[0045] In another optional embodiment, the input to the semantic encoder, in addition to the next raw data and the estimated channel matrix, also includes the channel conditions of the high-mobility scenario (such as using the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the channel in the high-mobility scenario as the channel conditions). The transmitting end can input the next raw data, the estimated channel matrix, and the channel conditions together into the semantic encoder for semantic encoding to extract semantic features and obtain the raw semantic features of the next raw data. It should be noted that the next raw data can be any raw data. When the raw data is the first raw data, the estimated channel matrix and the channel conditions of the high-mobility scenario can be empty, or can be empirical values, historical values, etc., without restriction.

[0046] In this embodiment, the channel matrix estimated by the receiver is fed back to the transmitter as input to the semantic encoder, enabling the semantic encoder to adaptively adjust according to the estimated channel matrix, thereby achieving CSI-aware semantic coding, i.e., channel-adaptive semantic coding, which improves coding and transmission performance.

[0047] In conjunction with any of the above embodiments, the present invention also provides a joint semantic coding-transmission method for high-mobility scenarios. In this method, the step S12 above, "the transmitting end maps the original data stream onto the time-delay-Doppler domain resource grid through an orthogonal time-frequency spatial modulator and inserts a pilot sequence to obtain an orthogonal time-frequency spatial frame," specifically includes the following steps S31 to S32:

[0048] Step S31: Generate a pilot pattern with the goal of making a portion of the time-delay-Doppler domain received symbols in the time-delay-Doppler domain received signal only related to the pilot sequence;

[0049] Step S32: According to the pilot pattern, map the original data stream onto the time-delay-Doppler domain resource grid and insert the pilot sequence to obtain an orthogonal time-frequency spatial frame.

[0050] This embodiment takes into account that for orthogonal time-frequency spatial modulation, let and Let the number of symbols represent the time delay and the Doppler dimension, respectively. Then the total number of DD domain resources is: .make and Let represent the subcarrier spacing and symbol period, respectively. Then the resolutions of the time delay and Doppler dimension are respectively... and Therefore, the equivalent channel matrix in the DD domain can be expressed by the following equation (1):

[0052] in, Indicates a total of One path; Indicates the first Complex gain of the path, Indicates the first The orthogonal basis corresponding to each path. express Fourier matrix, express 3D identity matrix express The conjugate transpose of . Indicates the Kronecker product. and These represent the time delay and the size of the Doppler tap, respectively. It is a forward cyclic shift matrix. It is a diagonal matrix, where .

[0053] Furthermore, considering integer delay and Doppler, and These represent the time delay and the size of the Doppler tap, respectively. and These represent the resource grid sizes for the time delay and Doppler dimensions, respectively. The resource grid sizes for the time delay domain and Doppler domain are defined as follows: and and order Indicating the time-delay-Doppler domain resource grid index The corresponding complex gain; then, the DD-domain equivalent channel matrix in equation (1) can be re-expressed using the following equation (2):

[0054] (2);

[0055] in, Indicating the time-delay-Doppler domain resource grid index The corresponding orthogonal basis.

[0056] This embodiment takes into account that, as can be seen from equations (1) and (2) above, although the number of potential elements constituting the channel ( ) is very large, but only a few ( Non-zero elements of ) satisfy The DD domain channel exhibits sparsity. Therefore, this embodiment transforms OTFS channel estimation into a sparse signal recovery problem within compressed sensing.

[0057] In this embodiment, the specific modeling method for the sparse signal recovery problem is as follows:

[0058] The first embodiment q The orthogonal time-frequency space frame is composed of the first q pilot sequence and the q One raw data stream composition, q ∈[1, Q ],and q and Q If the integer is , then the first... q Time-delay-Doppler domain received signal It can be expressed by the following formula (3):

[0059] (3)

[0060] in, For the first q Equivalent channel matrix in DD domain Indicates the first q DD domain receives noise.

[0061] Substituting equation (2) into equation (3), we get:

[0062] (4)

[0063] in, Equation (4) above can be written in matrix form as follows:

[0064] (5)

[0065] in, For the sensing matrix, each column consists of... composition. For sparse vectors, only The non-zero element is the nth non-zero element, where the non-zero element is the nth non-zero element. q Equivalent channel matrix in DD domain Complex gain If there is no data interference, equation (5) above can be equivalent to the sparse signal recovery problem in compressed sensing, that is, according to the observation vector (the first... q (Time Delay-Doppler Domain Received Signal) and sensor matrix Solving using algorithms from compressed sensing This leads to the channel matrix. The sensing matrix is ​​constructed based on the pilot sequence, which is known to both the receiver and transmitter; therefore, the sensing matrix is ​​also known.

[0066] According to equation (5) above, the receiving end only knows the sensing matrix. Then, it consists of unknown raw data streams. This is considered interference. Since the original data stream has a high power (compared to noise), the resulting interference is not negligible and will affect the performance of channel estimation. Therefore, this embodiment proposes a solution: a specially designed pilot pattern to eliminate interference from the received data to the pilot and improve channel estimation performance.

[0067] Specifically, this embodiment takes into account the equivalent channel matrix in the DD domain based on the above equation (1). Each line has only The nth non-zero value. Therefore, the nth q Time-delay-Doppler domain received signal Each symbol in the text is only associated with... The pilot pattern is related to the transmitted symbols in the time-delay-Doppler domain. Therefore, the specific method for designing the pilot pattern in this embodiment is as follows: A pilot pattern is generated with the goal of ensuring that a portion of the received symbols in the time-delay-Doppler domain are only related to the pilot sequence. Based on this, channel estimation is performed only on a portion of the received symbols in the time-delay-Doppler domain that are related to the pilot sequence, which can effectively eliminate interference from unknown data streams and improve channel estimation performance. Then, according to the generated pilot pattern, the original data stream is mapped onto the time-delay-Doppler domain resource grid, and the pilot sequence is inserted to obtain an orthogonal time-frequency spatial frame.

[0068] In conjunction with any of the above embodiments, the present invention also provides a joint semantic coding-transmission method for high-mobility scenarios, in which the number of generated orthogonal time-frequency spatial frames is... The above step S32 may specifically include the following step S41:

[0069] Step S41: According to the pilot pattern, from the first position to the second position... The pilot sequence is inserted at the nth position, and in the remaining nth position... Position 1 to 2 Insert the original data stream at the nth position to obtain the nth position. q indivual Dimensional orthogonal time-frequency spatial frames.

Furthermore, because... much smaller In this embodiment, only a small number of pilot symbols are placed in the orthogonal time-frequency space frame, which will significantly reduce pilot overhead.

[0072] In conjunction with any of the above embodiments, in one implementation, the present invention also provides a joint semantic coding-transmission method for high-mobility scenarios. In this method, step S15 may specifically include step S51:

[0073] Step S51: The receiving end uses the channel estimation module to perform channel estimation using a portion of the delay-Doppler domain received symbols in the delay-Doppler domain received signal that are only related to the pilot sequence, and the pilot sequence inserted by the transmitting end, to obtain the estimated channel matrix.

[0074] In this embodiment, the receiver can use the channel estimation module to perform channel estimation only on a portion of the delayed-Doppler domain received symbols that are only related to the pilot sequence in the delayed-Doppler domain received signal, as well as the pilot sequence inserted by the transmitter, to obtain the estimated channel matrix. This can effectively eliminate interference from unknown data streams and improve channel estimation performance.

[0075] In conjunction with any of the above embodiments, in one implementation, the present invention also provides a joint semantic coding-transmission method for high-mobility scenarios. In this method, the number of delay-Doppler domain received signals is...

In an alternative implementation, the first estimated channel matrix can be obtained by the following method. q indivual The channel matrix corresponding to the orthogonal time-frequency space frame of dimension :

[0079] After eliminating data interference, equation (3) becomes:

[0084] in, For sensing matrix The to A matrix composed of row elements. dimensional vector Only by It consists of 3 non-zero elements, and the non-zero elements are the channel coefficients. ,and ,therefore Given a sparse vector, the channel estimation problem is transformed into a sparse signal recovery problem in compressed sensing, which can be solved using algorithms from compressed sensing. Noise effects are not considered when performing channel estimation.

[0085] In an alternative example, equation (7) can be solved using a low-complexity orthogonal matching pursuit algorithm. This gives the value and index of a non-zero element; the value is then obtained.

[0089] In conjunction with any of the above embodiments, in one implementation, the present invention also provides a joint semantic coding-transmission method for high-mobility scenarios. In this method, S21 specifically includes steps S71 and S72:

[0090] Step S71: The receiving end constructs a low-dimensional channel matrix based on the estimated channel matrix.

[0091] In this embodiment, the channel matrix estimated by direct feedback (i.e., the high-dimensional channel matrix) is taken into consideration. This would cause significant feedback overhead. Therefore, in this embodiment, the channel matrix is ​​determined based on the above equation (1). The key variables include only: p Delay tap size of the path , No. p Doppler tap size of the path and the p Complex gain of a path Therefore, this embodiment only needs to provide a small amount of feedback information: In this embodiment, a low-dimensional channel matrix is ​​constructed based on the obtained estimated channel matrix. In one alternative embodiment, the constructed low-dimensional channel matrix... line, number The column elements are the magnitudes of the complex gain for the corresponding path, and the path delay tap size is... Doppler tap size is .

[0092] In an alternative example, the low-dimensional channel matrix can be obtained using the following equation (8):

[0093] (8);

[0094] in, For the first p Complex gain of the path; The channel matrix is ​​of low dimension. The line, number Column elements; Indicates a total of One path; other representations: .

[0095] Step S72: Feed back the low-dimensional channel matrix to the semantic encoder.

[0096] In this embodiment, only the low-dimensional channel matrix can be fed back to the semantic encoder as prior information for semantic coding, thereby reducing the feedback overhead without affecting the semantic coding adaptation.

[0097] In conjunction with any of the above embodiments, in one implementation, the present invention also provides a joint semantic coding-transmission method for high-mobility scenarios. In this method, the joint semantic coding-transmission method for high-mobility scenarios is implemented through a joint semantic coding-transmission model for high-mobility scenarios; the training process of the joint semantic coding-transmission model for high-mobility scenarios may include steps S81 to S85:

[0098] Step S81: Construct the joint semantic coding-transmission model to be trained based on the semantic encoder to be trained, the semantic decoder to be trained, the channel encoder to be trained, the channel decoder to be trained, the constellation modulator to be trained, the constellation demodulator to be trained, the orthogonal time-frequency space modulator, and the orthogonal time-frequency space demodulator.

[0099] In this embodiment, a joint semantic coding-transmission model to be trained can be constructed based on the semantic encoder to be trained, the semantic decoder to be trained, the channel encoder to be trained, the channel decoder to be trained, the constellation modulator to be trained, the constellation demodulator to be trained, the orthogonal time-frequency space modulator, and the orthogonal time-frequency space demodulator.

[0100] Step S82: The transmitting end uses the original sample data to obtain the time-domain sample transmission signal through the semantic encoder to be trained, the channel encoder to be trained, the constellation modulator to be trained, and the orthogonal time-frequency spatial modulator.

[0101] In this embodiment, the transmitting end can extract semantics from the original sample data using a semantic encoder to be trained, thereby obtaining the original semantic features of the sample; then, the original semantic features of the sample are processed sequentially by a channel encoder to be trained and a constellation modulator to be trained, thereby obtaining the original sample data stream; finally, the original sample data stream is mapped onto the time-delay-Doppler domain resource grid by an orthogonal time-frequency spatial modulator, and a sample pilot sequence is inserted to obtain the sample orthogonal time-frequency spatial frame, and the sample orthogonal time-frequency spatial frame is modulated to obtain the time-domain sample transmission signal.

[0102] Step S83: The transmitting end sends the time-domain sample transmission signal to the receiving end through a channel in a high-mobility scenario between itself and the receiving end.

[0103] In this embodiment, the transmitting end can send the obtained time-domain sample transmission signal to the receiving end through the channel in a high-mobility scenario between the transmitting end and the receiving end.

[0104] Step S84: The receiving end processes the received time-domain sample received signal through the orthogonal time-frequency spatial demodulator, the constellation demodulator to be trained, the channel decoder to be trained, and the semantic decoder to be trained to obtain sample reconstruction data.

[0105] In this embodiment, after the receiving end receives the time-domain sample received signal through the channel in a high-mobility scenario, it can demodulate the received time-domain sample received signal using the orthogonal time-frequency spatial demodulator to obtain the sample delay-Doppler domain received signal. Then, using the orthogonal time-frequency spatial demodulator, channel estimation is performed using the sample delay-Doppler domain received signal to obtain the estimated sample channel matrix. Signal detection is then performed using the estimated sample channel matrix and the sample delay-Doppler domain received signal to obtain the sample reconstruction data stream. This sample reconstruction data stream is then sequentially passed through a constellation demodulator to be trained and a channel decoder to be trained to obtain the sample reconstruction semantic features. Finally, the sample reconstruction semantic features are processed by the semantic decoder to be trained to obtain the sample reconstruction data.

[0106] It should be noted that the implementation details of steps S82 to S84 in the model training process are the same as or similar to the implementation details of the model application process in any of the foregoing embodiments, and will not be repeated here.

[0107] Step S85: Based on the difference between the reconstructed sample data and the original sample data, update the model parameters of the joint semantic coding-transmission model to be trained, and obtain the joint semantic coding-transmission model for high mobility scenarios, which consists of a trained semantic encoder, a trained semantic decoder, a trained channel encoder, a trained channel decoder, a trained constellation modulator, a trained constellation demodulator, the orthogonal time-frequency space modulator, and the orthogonal time-frequency space demodulator.

[0108] In this embodiment, the difference between the reconstructed sample data and the original sample data can be determined. Based on the difference between the reconstructed sample data and the original sample data, with the goal of minimizing the difference between the reconstructed sample data and the original sample data, the model parameters of the joint semantic coding-transmission model to be trained are updated. That is, the model parameters of the semantic encoder, semantic decoder, channel encoder, channel decoder, constellation modulator, constellation demodulator, orthogonal time-frequency space modulator, and orthogonal time-frequency space demodulator to be trained are updated to obtain a joint semantic coding-transmission model for high mobility scenarios. The joint semantic coding-transmission model for high mobility scenarios includes: a trained semantic encoder, a trained semantic decoder, a trained channel encoder, a trained channel decoder, a trained constellation modulator, a trained constellation demodulator, an orthogonal time-frequency space modulator, and an orthogonal time-frequency space demodulator.

[0109] In one embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram illustrating an integrated semantic information transmission architecture based on orthogonal time-frequency spatial modulation for high-mobility scenarios, as shown in one embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, considering the significant Doppler shift and other challenges faced by high-mobility scenarios, which severely affect the reliability and stability of semantic information transmission, an integrated semantic information transmission architecture based on orthogonal time-frequency spatial modulation is designed, taking into account the channel characteristics of high-mobility scenarios. Specifically, based on the relevant semantic communication system framework, orthogonal time-frequency spatial modulation technology is introduced to effectively suppress the Doppler effect. Through the coordinated optimization of semantic coding and transmission waveform, efficient and reliable transmission of semantic information in high-mobility scenarios is achieved.

[0110] exist Figure 4 The specific functions and modules of the proposed semantic information integrated transmission architecture include: (1) Semantic encoding and decoding: At the sending end, a neural network is used to extract the meaning of the original data (i.e., the source S), and it is encoded to obtain semantic features A, reducing data redundancy, retaining core semantic features, and improving transmission efficiency. At the receiving end, the obtained reconstructed semantic features are processed... Decode and recover the original data to obtain the destination. (2) Semantic transmission waveform (i.e., including semantic transmission waveform and semantic reception waveform): including channel coding, channel decoding, constellation modulation, constellation demodulation, orthogonal time-frequency space modulation, orthogonal time-frequency space demodulation, etc. (3) Pilot design and channel estimation: the transmitter designs pilot patterns, and the receiver recovers channel state information from the received signal for the detection of semantic information symbols. (4) Channel feedback: the channel state information estimated by the receiver is fed back to the transmitter as the input of the semantic encoder, so that the semantic encoder can make adaptive adjustments according to the channel state information and realize channel state-aware semantic coding.

[0111] In summary, this invention addresses the Doppler effect in high-mobility scenarios by designing an adapted OTFS-based semantic information integrated transmission architecture (i.e., the aforementioned semantic communication system), proposing a channel-adaptive semantic coding method, and further proposing a joint optimization method for semantic coding, channel coding, constellation modulation, and OTFS modulation. Compared with related technologies, this invention has the following technical advantages:

[0112] (1) Currently, related semantic communication systems based on separate coding and transmission architecture lack environmental adaptability and are difficult to cope with dynamic and complex transmission environments. Compared with the related semantic communication systems based on separate coding and transmission architecture, the semantic information integrated transmission architecture and waveform proposed in this invention fully consider the dynamic and varied channel characteristics in high mobility scenarios, reveal the transmission evolution law of semantic features in complex environments, and jointly optimize semantic coding and transmission waveforms, providing a brand-new solution for efficient and reliable transmission of massive data in high mobility scenarios.

[0113] (2) Currently, high-quality transmission of semantic information depends on the accurate detection of semantic features by the receiver, which requires accurate channel state information. However, there is an inherent contradiction between the accuracy and computational complexity of traditional channel estimation algorithms, making it difficult to achieve both high accuracy and low complexity at the same time. Compared with related channel estimation schemes, the channel estimation method proposed in this invention can reduce the complexity of channel estimation, reduce pilot overhead, and ensure the accuracy of channel estimation and signal detection, thus guaranteeing the recovery performance of semantic features.
