Look Once, Beam Twice: Camera-Primed Real-Time Double-Directional mmWave Beam Management for Vehicular Connectivity
Millimeter-wave (mmWave) frequencies promise multi-gigabit connectivity for vehicle-to-everything (V2X) networks, but face challenges in terms of severe path loss and mobility-related beam misalignment. Reliable V2X connectivity requires fast, double-directional beam alignment. However, existing methods suffer from high training overhead and limited generalization to unseen scenarios. This paper presents VIsion-based BEamforming(VIBE), a hybrid model-based, closed-loop, learning architecture for real-time double-directional mmWave beam management primed by camera sensing. VIBE fuses machine learning, model-based reasoning, and closed-loop RF feedback to balance beam-pair establishment lat...
