🌟 Editor's Spotlight Paper

"RFSoC Modulation Classification with Streaming CNN: Data Set Generation & Quantized-Aware Training" by Andrew Maclellan, Louise H. Crockett, and Robert W. Stewart.

Can a deep learning radio receiver move beyond offline demonstrations and operate continuously on real hardware? This paper answers this question with a resounding yes! The authors build a streaming CNN modulation classifier directly on an AMD Zynq UltraScale+ RFSoC to process live ADC data without dropping samples. The authors feature a DeepRFSoC dataset that captures hardware and channel effects that idealized simulations often miss, including converter artifacts, filtering, quantization, and realistic signal impairments. Quantization-aware training is then used to compare 16-, 8-, and 4-bit models. The 16-bit implementation reaches approximately 76% average accuracy at high SNR, just four percentage points below the floating-point baseline, while requiring relatively little additional hardware over the lower-precision alternatives. The result is an exciting demonstration of hardware-aware AI moving from the laboratory into practical, real-time wireless receivers.

🌟Editor's Spotlight Paper

"8-Channel CMOS Chip for Real-Time Control of Integrated Silicon Photonic Processors" by Emanuele Sacchi, Francesco Zanetto, Andres Ivan Martinez, Seyedmohammad Seyedinnavadeh, Francesco Morichetti, Andrea Melloni, Marco Sampietro, and Giorgio Ferrari

Light moves fast, but programmable photonic processors still need electronics clever enough to keep them on course. In this paper, Sacchi and colleagues introduce an eight-channel CMOS controller that continuously monitors and adjusts silicon photonic interferometers in real time. Using two controller chips, the team independently steered all 15 interferometers in a 16-channel photonic mesh, recovering the optimal optical path from a random starting point in roughly 10–15 milliseconds. This boosted output power by about 23 dB. Even more impressively, the system compensated for simulated atmospheric turbulence and restored free-space optical links carrying 25-Gbit/s and 50-Gbit/s signals. By replacing bulky FPGA-based control hardware with compact, parallel feedback electronics, this work brings scalable, self-correcting photonic processors closer to practical deployment in communications, computing, sensing, and beyond.
