Introduction of a pilot study [PDF]
A pilot study asks whether something can be done, should the researchers proceed with it, and if so, how. However, a pilot study also has a specific design feature; it is conducted on a smaller scale than the main or full-scale study. In other words, the

Channel Charting Aided Pilot Reuse for Massive MIMO Systems with Spatially Correlated Channels [PDF]
Massive multiple-input multiple-output (mMIMO) technology is a way to increase the spectral efficiency of machine-type communications (MTC). To exploit the benefits from large antenna arrays, accurate channel estimation through pilot signals is needed. Massive MTC systems cannot avoid pilot reuse due to the enormous numbers of connected devices.

Joint Pilot Design and Channel Estimation using Deep Residual Learning for Multi-Cell Massive MIMO under Hardware Impairments [PDF]
In multi-cell massive MIMO systems, channel estimation is deteriorated by pilot contamination and the effects of pilot contamination become more severe due to hardware impairments. In this paper, we propose a joint pilot design and channel estimation based on deep residual learning in order to mitigate the effects of pilot contamination under the ...

An Adaptive Pilot Model with Reaction Time-Delay [PDF]
Practical adaptive control implementations where human pilots coexist in the loop are still uncommon, despite their success in handling uncertain dynamical systems. This is owing to their special nonlinear characteristics which lead to unfavorable interactions between pilots and adaptive controllers.

On the Pilot Contamination Attack in Multi-Cell Multiuser Massive MIMO Networks [PDF]
In this paper, we analyze pilot contamination (PC) attacks on a multi-cell massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) network with correlated pilots. We obtain correlated pilots using a user capacity-achieving pilot sequence design. This design relies on an algorithm which designs correlated pilot sequences based on signal-to-interference-plus-noise

From Novice to Skilled: RL-based Shared Autonomy Communicating with Pilots in UAV Multi-Task Missions [PDF]
Multi-task missions for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) involving inspection and landing tasks are challenging for novice pilots due to the difficulties associated with depth perception and the control interface. We propose a shared autonomy system, alongside supplementary information displays, to assist pilots to successfully complete multi-task ...

Super Placebos: A Feasibility Study Combining Contextual Factors to Promote Placebo Effects
Background: Ample evidence demonstrates that placebo effects are modulated by contextual factors. Few interventions, however, attempt to combine a broad range of these factors.
