Cross-Layer Solutions for Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Networks: Cross-Link CSI Prediction, MAC Scheduling, and Physical-Layer Privacy Protection in Wi-Fi Sensing 2026_RTT_DEIB_7

The research will focus on wireless and Internet of Things networks based on Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, integrating communication and Wi-Fi sensing through cross-layer solutions spanning the physical layer and medium access control (MAC) protocols. Channel State Information (CSI) and cross-link channel prediction will be used to optimize transmission scheduling and radio resource allocation, reducing CSI acquisition overhead. Physical-layer security and privacy threats will be analyzed, and countermeasures against unauthorized sensing will be developed, including CSI obfuscation and randomized beamforming, while limiting the impact on legitimate communications. The solutions will employ artificial intelligence methods, including multimodal learning and neuro-symbolic approaches, and will be experimentally validated on commodity devices and software-defined radio platforms.
