| contents | To achieve continuous massive data transmission with significantly reduced data payload, the users can adopt semantic communication techniques to compress the redundant information by transmitting semantic features instead. However, current works on semantic communication mainly focus on high compression ratio, neglecting the wireless channel effects including dynamic distortion and multi-user interference, which significantly limit the fidelity of semantic communication. To address this, this paper proposes a diffusion model (DM)-based channel enhancer (DMCE) for improving the performance of multi-user semantic communication, with the DM learning the particular data distribution of channel effects on the transmitted semantic features. In the considered system model, multiple users (such as road cameras) transmit semantic features of multi-source data to a receiver by applying the joint source-channel coding (JSCC) techniques, and the receiver fuses the semantic features from multiple users to complete specific tasks. Then, we propose DMCE to enhance the channel state information (CSI) estimation for improving the restoration of the received semantic features. Finally, the fusion results at the receiver are significantly enhanced, demonstrating a robust performance even under low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regimes, enabling the generation of effective object segmentation images. Extensive simulation results with a traffic scenario dataset show that the proposed scheme can improve the mean Intersection over Union (mIoU) by more than 25\% at low SNR regimes, compared with the benchmark schemes. |
