It is impossible to overlook the impact of air pollution on nature, human well-being, and concerned countries' economies. Monitoring of air pollution and future predictions of air quality have lately displayed a vital concern. There is a need to predict the air quality index with high accuracy; on a real-time basis to prevent people from health issues caused by air pollution. With the help of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle's onboard sensors, we can collect air quality data easily. The paper proposes a distributed and decentralized Federated Learning approach within a UAV swarm. The accumulated data by the sensors are used as an input to the Long Short Term Memory (LSTM) model. Each UAV used its locally gathered data to train a model before transmitting the local model to the central base station. The central base station creates a master model by combining all the UAV's local model weights of the participating UAVs in the FL process and transmits it to all UAV s in the subsequent cycles. The effectiveness of the proposed model is evaluated with other machine learning models using various evaluation metrics using test data from the capital city of India, i.e., Delhi.","PeriodicalId":200641,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE Global Communications Conference (GLOBECOM)","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117239835","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Different from the existing fixed phase shifter (FPS) architecture where the phases are fixed and independent of the channel state information, we consider variable phase shifter (VPS) whose phases are variable and subject to the hardware constraint. Based on the VPS architecture, a hybrid precoding design (HPD) scheme named VPS-HPD is proposed to optimize the phases according to the channel state information. Specifically, we alternately optimize the analog precoder and the digital precoder, where the former is converted into several subproblems and each subproblem further includes the alternating optimization of the phase matrix and switch matrix. Simulation results show that the spectral efficiency of the VPS-HPD scheme is very close to that of the fully digital precoding, higher than that of the existing MO-AltMin scheme for the fully-connected architecture with much fewer phase shifters, and substantially higher than that of the existing FPS-AltMin scheme for the FPS architecture with the same number of phase shifters.","PeriodicalId":200641,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE Global Communications Conference (GLOBECOM)","volume":"227 14","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120878943","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Accurate estimation of the noise variance is critical for the receiver performance, especially when applied with linear minimum mean square error (LMMSE) channel estimation (CE). A commonly used method estimates the noise variance from the power of the residual signal at the CE output. In this paper, we prove that such conventional estimator is biased, resulting in underestimation of the noise variance; then, we derive a bias correction method. Simulation results show that the proposed bias correction can significantly improve LMMSE CE performance, achieving up to 1dB gain in terms of block error rate (BLER).","PeriodicalId":200641,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE Global Communications Conference (GLOBECOM)","volume":"193 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121112546","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The recent technique of Federated Learning offers now a way to do also the training of the machine learning models on small devices by distributing the computing effort needed for the training over many distributed machines. But, the training on these low-capacity devices takes a long time and often consumes all the available CPU resource of the device. Therefore, for Federated Learning to be done by low-capacity devices in practical environments, the training process must not only target for the highest accuracy, but also on reducing the training time and the resource consumption. In this paper, we present an approach which uses a dynamic epoch parameter in the model training. We propose the BePOCH (Best Epoch) algorithm to identify what is the best number of epochs per training round in Federated Learning. We show in experiments with medical datasets how with the BePOCH suggested number of epochs, the training time and resource consumption decreases while keeping the level of accuracy. Thus, BePOCH makes machine learning model training on low-capacity devices more feasible and furthermore, decreases the overall resource consumption of the training process, which is an important asnect towards greener machine learning techniques.","PeriodicalId":200641,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE Global Communications Conference (GLOBECOM)","volume":"73 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127116508","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Spectrum is a scarce resource in wireless communications, especially with the dramatic increase in the number of devices in networks. Recently, inspired by the success of deep reinforcement learning (DRL), extensive studies have been conducted in addressing wireless resource allocation problems via DRL. However, training DRL algorithms usually requires a massive amount of data collected from the environment for each specific task and the well-trained model may fail if there is a small variation in the environment. In this work, in order to address these challenges, we propose a meta-DRL framework that incorporates the method of Model-Agnostic Meta-Learning (MAML). In the proposed framework, we train a common initialization for similar channel selection tasks. From the initialization, we show that only a few gradient descents are required for adapting to different tasks drawn from the same distribution. We demonstrate the performance improvements via simulation results.","PeriodicalId":200641,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE Global Communications Conference (GLOBECOM)","volume":"47 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125120683","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Most existing load balancing algorithms are manually designed and tuned rule-based methods where near-optimality is almost impossible to achieve. These rule-based meth-ods are difficult to adapt quickly to traffic changes in real-world environments. Given the success of Reinforcement Learning (RL) algorithms in many application domains, there have been a number of efforts to tackle load balancing for communication systems using RL-based methods. To our knowledge, none of these efforts have addressed the need for data efficiency within the RL framework, which is one of the main obstacles in applying RL to wireless network load balancing. In this paper, we formulate the communication load balancing problem as a Markov Decision Process and propose a data-efficient transfer deep reinforcement learning algorithm to address it. Experimental results show that the proposed method can significantly improve the system performance over other baselines and is more robust to environmental changes.","PeriodicalId":200641,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE Global Communications Conference (GLOBECOM)","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125926716","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We further investigate the power leakage under different antenna array topologies: including uniform linear array (ULA), uniform rectangular array (URA), distributed linear subarrays (DIS). The impact of user location on the per antenna distortion is also visualized. The results indicate that the DIS array configuration achieves the lowest in-band and out-of-band power leakage, which renders the distributed array a potential to reduce the linearity requirement of PAs when scaling up a practical massive MIMO system.","PeriodicalId":200641,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE Global Communications Conference (GLOBECOM)","volume":"248 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126047255","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The critical nature of these domains requires for very high Quality of Service (QoS) to work properly. These applications often use computing paradigms such as fog computing and software architectures such as the Microservices Architecture (MSA). Moreover, the need for transparent service discovery in MSAs, combined with the need for network scalability and flexibility, motivates the use of Software-Defined Networking (SDN) in these infrastructures. However, optimizing QoS in these scenarios implies an optimal deployment of microservices, fog nodes, and SDN controllers. Moreover, the deployment of each of the different elements affects the optimality of the others, which calls for a joint solution. In this paper, we motivate the joining of these three optimization problems into a single effort and we present Umizatou, a holistic deployment optimization solution that makes use of Mixed Integer Linear Programming.
