A Deep-Learning Approach to a Volumetric Radio Environment Map Construction for UAV-Assisted Networks by Bethelhem S. Shawel, Dereje H. Woldegebreal, Sofie Pollin

“…The proposed approach addresses the limitations of existing approaches by learning the spatial correlation of wireless propagation channel characteristics and visualizing REM in areal and height/altitude dimensions using deep learning models. Specifically, the approach uses two deep learning-based models: volume-to-volume (Vol2Vol) VREM with 3D-generative adversarial networks and sliced VREM with altitude-aware spider-UNets. …”
