Point2Radio: A Foundation Model for Cross-Scene Radio Fields from Material-Aware Point Clouds
High-fidelity radio fields are typically simulated for every scene--transmitter configuration or fitted separately to each scene, failing to exploit propagation structures shared across environments. We present Point2Radio, a foundation model that learns a transferable propagation prior from multiple environments. Given a material-aware point cloud and a transmitter (TX) setting, a common encoder produces a TX-conditioned scene representation that can be queried at arbitrary receiver (RX) locations. Task-specific query decoders map this representation to different radio quantities, e.g., three-dimensional (3D) path-gain (PG) fields and power angular spectra (PAS). At inference for a new scene, the model uses only a material-aware point cloud and transceiver queries, running in milliseconds on a single GPU without meshes or explicit path tracing. We evaluate PG prediction on a scene-disjoint split of a 337-scene corpus containing 86,272 TX-conditioned fields. Point2Radio achieves 0.871 dB mean absolute error (MAE), reducing error by 76.7% relative to a same-split UNet-style baseline. The same encoder also supports PAS prediction via a task-specific decoder. Experiments further show that light target-scene fine-tuning improves adaptation to a specific environment.
Bridging Visual and Wireless Sensing: A Unified Radiation Field for 3D Radio Map Construction
The emerging applications of next-generation wireless networks (e.g., immersive 3D communication, low-altitude networks, and integrated sensing and communication) necessitate high-fidelity environmental intelligence. 3D radio maps have emerged as a critical tool for this purpose, enabling spectrum-aware planning and environment-aware sensing by bridging the gap between physical environments and electromagnetic signal propagation. However, constructing accurate 3D radio maps requires fine-grained 3D geometric information and a profound understanding of electromagnetic wave propagation. Existing approaches typically treat optical and wireless knowledge as distinct modalities, failing to exploit the fundamental physical principles governing both light and electromagnetic propagation. To bridge this gap, we propose URF-GS, a unified radio-optical radiation field representation framework for accurate and generalizable 3D radio map construction based on 3D Gaussian splatting (3D-GS) and inverse rendering. By fusing visual and wireless sensing observations, URF-GS recovers scene geometry and material properties while accurately predicting radio signal behavior at arbitrary transmitter-receiver (Tx-Rx) configurations. Experimental results demonstrate that URF-GS achieves up to a 24.7% improvement in spatial spectrum prediction accuracy and a 10x increase in sample efficiency for 3D radio map construction compared with neural radiance field (NeRF)-based methods. This work establishes a foundation for next-generation wireless networks by integrating perception, interaction, and communication through holistic radiation field reconstruction.
