Semantic Communications: Principles and Challenges. (arXiv:2201.01389v1 [cs.IT])

Semantic communication, regarded as the breakthrough beyond Shannon paradigm,
aims at the successful transmission of semantic information conveyed by the
source rather than the accurate reception of each single symbol or bit
regardless of its meaning. This article provides an overview on semantic
communications. After a brief review on Shannon information theory, we discuss
semantic communications with theory, frameworks, and system design enabled by
deep learning. Different from the symbol/bit error rate used for measuring the
conventional communication systems, new …
