We are motivated to address the challenges induced by the lack of direct communication between the vehicles and the infrastructures, such as signal coverage limitations and the existence of obstacles. We consider a scenario in which UAV relays perform cooperative communication in vehicular networks to offer extended coverage to the vehicles, which results in an improvement in the system capacity and reliability. Identifying an efficient UAV-assisted collaboration strategy for vehicular networks is challenging due to the vehicle mobility and the limited power consumption of UAVs. To tackle this problem, we propose a UAV-assisted cooperative relaying scheme based on deep reinforcement learning. To this end, we first determine the optimal transmit powers of a given set of UAV relays to maximize the total throughput of the system. Then, we formulate the UAV-assisted cooperative relaying process as a Markov process and apply a deep Q-network to obtain an effective UAV relay selection strategy. One of the advantages of our solution is that it does not require the knowledge of the vehicle moving trajectories. Through simulations, we demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed method.","PeriodicalId":425118,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE/CIC International Conference on Communications in China (ICCC)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129294453","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}

Unlike existing approaches focus only on a simplified two-dimensional scenario, this paper considers a three-dimensional (3D) urban environment, where the UAV's 3D trajectory is designed to minimize data transmission completion time subject to practical throughput and flight movement constraints. Specifically, we propose a deep reinforcement learning (DRL)-based trajectory design for completion time minimization (DRL- TDCTM), which is developed from a deep deterministic policy gradient algorithm. In particular, to represent the state information of UAV and environment, we set an additional information, i.e., the merged pheromone, as a reference of reward which facilitates the algorithm design. By interacting with the external environment in the corresponding Markov decision process, the proposed algorithm can continuously and adaptively learn how to adjust the UAV's movement strategy.

Its key issue lies in the accurate prediction of user requirements. Considering the pervasive movement of users in cellular networks, especially in small-cell networks, we propose a mobility prediction-based content caching replacement strategy in this paper. Note that the impact of unevenly distributed file popularity is much larger in small cells than in macro cells due to their small coverage, where the local file request profile does not match the global one. In more detail, the user location predicted by long short term memory (LSTM) is incorporated into the caching replacement algorithm based on a deep reinforcement learning (DRL) framework. Simulation results show that the mobility prediction brings significant performance improvement in terms of cache hit ratio (CHR) in various movement scenarios, especially for a more regular movement pattern of users. Moreover, the optimal CHR threshold in the proposed algorithm is analytically derived, and the performance impact of learning rate as well as the storage size is also well investigated.","PeriodicalId":425118,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE/CIC International Conference on Communications in China (ICCC)","volume":"132 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121541678","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}

Users offloaded computing-intensive tasks to edge servers with stronger processing capabilities to further satisfy their QoE. A joint task offloading and resource allocation strategy was proposed to maximize users’ offloading gain by weighting task execution time and energy consumption. The above optimization problem is modeled as a mixed-integer non-linear programming problem that jointly optimizes task offloading decisions, the mobile users’ uplink transmission power, and edge server computing resource allocation. In a large-scale communication network, it is difficult to optimize the above problems to achieve the optimal solution. Therefore, we decoupled the above problems into the resource allocation problem under the fixed offloading decision and the offloading decision problem under the optimal resource allocation. Simulation results showed that the proposed method could effectively meet the users’ QoE. As the bandwidth compression factor γ and transfer data ${d_{u}}$ increase, the system utility function decreases. Well, as task loading ${C_{u}}$ increases, the system utility function increases.","PeriodicalId":425118,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE/CIC International Conference on Communications in China (ICCC)","volume":"15 3","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"113964271","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 optimization goal of this paper is to maximize the minimum throughput of ground terminals (GTs) by jointly optimizing the UAV deployment, time resource allocation, and power control. Nevertheless, the optimization problem is nonlinear and non-convex, which is difficult to solve directly. Therefore, it is transformed into two sub-problems, which can be iterated alternately to maximize the minimum throughput of each device in WPCN. The successive convex approximation (SCA) technique and variable substitution are used to transform two non-convex sub-problems into solvable problems. Finally, an iterative algorithm combining two sub-problems is designed to obtain the resource allocation strategies.
