Common-Loss Parameter-Efficiency Analysis of MLP and KAN Neural Receivers for Digital Communications
This paper compares multi-layer perceptron (MLP) and Kolmogorov--Arnold Network (KAN) receivers using a multi-SNR Nyquist-rate BPSK dataset and shows that both MLP and KAN receivers reproduce the expected AWGN-BPSK detection trend, while a compact KAN configuration reaches a comparable operating region with substantial...
