The paper "WirelessLLM: Empowering Large Language Models Towards Wireless Intelligence" by Jiawei Shao et al. explores the integration of Large Language Models (LLMs) into wireless communication systems to address the growing complexity and diversity of network infrastructures. The authors propose WirelessLLM, a comprehensive framework that aligns LLMs with the unique challenges and requirements of wireless communication networks. The framework is underpinned by three foundational principles: knowledge alignment, knowledge fusion, and knowledge evolution.
The paper discusses enabling technologies such as prompt engineering, retrieval-augmented generation, tool usage, multi-modal pre-training, and domain-specific fine-tuning. It presents three case studies to demonstrate the practical applicability and benefits of WirelessLLM in solving typical problems in wireless networks, including power allocation, spectrum sensing, and protocol understanding.
Key challenges highlighted include dataset collection for model training, computational complexity in inference, and security concerns related to wireless systems. The authors conclude by outlining potential avenues for future research, emphasizing the need to address these challenges to fully realize the potential of WirelessLLM in wireless communications.The paper "WirelessLLM: Empowering Large Language Models Towards Wireless Intelligence" by Jiawei Shao et al. explores the integration of Large Language Models (LLMs) into wireless communication systems to address the growing complexity and diversity of network infrastructures.
