Abstract
Accurate path loss prediction is a critical component of wireless network planning. Current path loss prediction methods typically struggle to balance the trade-off between accuracy and computational efficiency. This paper proposes the Efficient Attention Radio Map Estimation Network (EA-RMENet) which is an image data-driven, deep learning (DL) model designed for radio map estimation (RME). EA-RMENet uses a U-Net framework with an EfficientNetB5 encoder, Attention Gated (AG) skip connections, and Atrous Spatial Pyramid Pooling (ASPP). The EfficientNet encoder uses compound scaling to balance accuracy and efficiency. AG skip connections suppress irrelevant features, and the ASPP captures a multi-scale context. The model has a test prediction RMSE of 0.0334 on the RadioMapSeer3D dataset with an inference time of 0.022 seconds/sample. In the ICASSP 2023 Radio Map Prediction Challenge, the model ranks third with a competitive RMSE of 0.0406 this highlights the models potential for real-world RME.
Radiomap prediction provides a high-resolution spatial representation of channel metrics that is essential for network planning, interference management, and resource allocation. Empirical and statistical models lack site specificity, whereas deterministic ray tracing (RT) is too computationally expensive for large-sca...
