ArXi:2605.31065v1 Announce Type: cross Non-terrestrial networks (NTNs) are expected to play a pivotal role in sixth-generation (6G) systems by enabling ubiquitous connectivity and massive communication. In this context, channel prediction emerges as a key technique to improve the spectrum utilization efficiency by limiting the pilot overhead. However, many proposed predictors based on artificial intelligence (AI) are characterized by high inference complexity, posing challenges to onboard implementation.
