Spatio-Temporal Scheduling Prediction Under Backhaul Delay for Resilient Coordinated Beamforming

arXiv:2607.08454v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Coordinated beamforming in distributed 5G networks relies on the timely exchange of inter-cell scheduling information, but backhaul latency makes this information stale. Even a single transmission time interval (TTI) of delay can reduce CBF-SLNR performance below the uncoordinated baseline, because the precoder suppresses interference toward users that are no longer active. Coordination on stale information is therefore worse than no coordination at all. To address this, we propose a two-stage predictive framework in which a Spectral Temporal G

Why this matters
