contents Environment-aware communication and sensing is one of the promising paradigm shifts towards 6G, which fully leverages prior information of the local wireless environment to optimize network performance. One of the key enablers for environment-aware communication and sensing is channel knowledge map (CKM), which provides location-specific channel knowledge that is crucial for channel state information (CSI) acquisition. To support the efficient construction of CKM, large-scale location-specific channel data is essential. However, most existing channel datasets do not have the location information nor visual representations of channel data, making them inadequate for exploring the intrinsic relationship between the channel knowledge and the local environment, nor for applying advanced artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms such as computer vision (CV) for CKM construction. To address such issues, in this paper, a large-scale dataset named CKMImageNet is established, which can provide both location-tagged numerical channel data and visual images, providing a holistic view of the channel and environment. Built using commercial ray tracing software, CKMImageNet captures electromagnetic wave propagation in different scenarios, revealing the relationships between location, environment and channel knowledge. By integrating detailed channel data and the corresponding image, CKMImageNet not only supports the verification of various communication and sensing algorithms, but also enables CKM construction with CV algorithms.
