Résumé: To cope with the spectrum scarcity and the emerging trend in various mobile applications, using multi-band communications is a promising solution for future cellular communication networks. Meanwhile, resource management plays a dominant role in system performance, especially when different quality of service (QoS) requirements are considered.

In this context, this webinar presents two resource allocation problems and our porposed solutions.

The first problem is related to efficiently exploiting the advantages of both non-orthogonal multiple access technique and millimeter-wave communications. The problem focuses on a multi-band (i.e., millimeter-wave band and sub-6 GHz band) wireless network where both orthogonal and non-orthogonal multiple access techniques coexist. A joint optimization of user association, transmit power allocation, sub-channel assignment, and multiple access technique selection is investigated to maximize the down-link sum-rate under a minimum rate requirement per user and power constraints. The proposed solution to the formulated non-convex mixed-integer optimization problem; includes a simple greedy and meta-heuristic solutions. Then, model-free centralized and distributed approaches based on deep reinforcement learning technique are proposed. They are based on multiple parallel deep neural networks to generate resource allocation solutions.

The second problem handles the joint optimization of resource allocation in sub-6 GHz, millimeter wave, and terahertz coexistence networks. The objective is to maximize the whole system’s energy efficiency. The first approach to solve the problem iteratively. Firstly, we solve the joint problem of user-base station association and channel allocation and secondly, we solve the power allocation problem. As a second approach, we propose an energy-efficient deep reinforcement learning-assisted resource allocation solution based on the deep Q-learning method.
