Distributed Average Consensus via Noisy and Non-Coherent Over-the-Air Aggregation
CoRR(2024)
摘要
Over-the-air aggregation has attracted widespread attention for its potential
advantages in task-oriented applications, such as distributed sensing,
learning, and consensus. In this paper, we develop a communication-efficient
distributed average consensus protocol by utilizing over-the-air aggregation,
which exploits the superposition property of wireless channels rather than
combat it. Noisy channels and non-coherent transmission are taken into account,
and only half-duplex transceivers are required. We prove that the system can
achieve average consensus in mean square and even almost surely under the
proposed protocol. Furthermore, we extend the analysis to the scenarios with
time-varying topology. Numerical simulation shows the effectiveness of the
proposed protocol.
