Abstract
We address the port-selection problem in fluid antenna multiple access (FAMA) systems with multi-port fluid antenna (FA) receivers. Existing methods either achieve near-optimal spectral efficiency (SE) at prohibitive computational cost or sacrifice significant performance for lower complexity. We propose two complementary strategies: (i) GFwd+S, a greedy forward-selection method with swap refinement that consistently outperforms state-of-the-art reference schemes in terms of SE, and (ii) a Transformer-based neural network trained via imitation learning followed by a Reinforce policy-gradient stage, which approaches GFwd+S performance at lower computational cost.
