In this paper, we propose a joint radio and core resource allocation framework for NFV-enabled networks. In the proposed system model, the goal is to maximize energy efficiency (EE), by guaranteeing end-to-end (E2E) quality of service (QoS) for different service types. To this end, we formulate an optimization problem in which power and spectrum resources are allocated in the radio part. In the core part, the chaining, placement, and scheduling of functions are performed to ensure the QoS of all users. This joint optimization problem is modeled as a Markov decision process (MDP), considering time-varying characteristics of the available resources and wireless channels. A soft actor-critic deep reinforcement learning (SAC-DRL) algorithm based on the maximum entropy framework is subsequently utilized to solve the above MDP. Numerical results reveal that the proposed joint approach based on the SAC-DRL algorithm could significantly reduce energy consumption compared to the case in which R-RA and NFV-RA problems are optimized separately.

Deep learning provides powerful means to learn from spectrum data and solve complex tasks in 5G and beyond such as beam selection for initial access (IA) in mmWave communications. To establish the IA between the base station (e.g., gNodeB) and user equipment (UE) for directional transmissions, a deep neural network (DNN) can predict the beam that is best slanted to each UE by using the received signal strengths (RSSs) from a subset of possible narrow beams. While improving the latency and reliability of beam selection compared to the conventional IA that sweeps all beams, the DNN itself is susceptible to adversarial attacks. We present an adversarial attack by generating adversarial perturbations to manipulate the over-the-air captured RSSs as the input to the DNN. This attack reduces the IA performance significantly and fools the DNN into choosing the beams with small RSSs compared to jamming attacks with Gaussian or uniform noise.
In this paper, the problem of opportunistic spectrum sharing for the next generation of wireless systems empowered by the cloud radio access network (C-RAN) is studied. More precisely, low-priority users employ cooperative spectrum sensing to detect a vacant portion of the spectrum that is not currently used by high-priority users. The design of the scheme is to maximize the overall throughput of the low-priority users while guaranteeing the quality of service of the high-priority users. This objective is attained by optimally adjusting spectrum sensing time with respect to imposed target probabilities of detection and false alarm as well as dynamically allocating and assigning C-RAN resources, i.e., transmit powers, sub-carriers, remote radio heads (RRHs), and base-band units. The presented optimization problem is non-convex and NP-hard that is extremely hard to tackle directly. To solve the problem, a low-complex iterative approach is proposed in which sensing time, user association parameters and transmit powers of RRHs are alternatively assigned and optimized at every step. Numerical results are then provided to demonstrate the necessity of performing sensing time adjustment in such systems as well as balancing the sensing-throughput tradeoff.
Edge machine learning involves the development of learning algorithms at the network edge to leverage massive distributed data and computation resources. Among others, the framework of federated edge learning (FEEL) is particularly promising for its data-privacy preservation. FEEL coordinates global model training at a server and local model training at edge devices over wireless links. In this work, we explore the new direction of energy-efficient radio resource management (RRM) for FEEL. To reduce devices energy consumption, we propose energy-efficient strategies for bandwidth allocation and scheduling. They adapt to devices channel states and computation capacities so as to reduce their sum energy consumption while warranting learning performance. In contrast with the traditional rate-maximization designs, the derived optimal policies allocate more bandwidth to those scheduled devices with weaker channels or poorer computation capacities, which are the bottlenecks of synchronized model updates in FEEL. On the other hand, the scheduling priority function derived in closed form gives preferences to devices with better channels and computation capacities. Substantial energy reduction contributed by the proposed strategies is demonstrated in learning experiments.
In this paper, we propose a novel joint intelligent trajectory design and resource allocation algorithm based on users mobility and their requested services for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) assisted networks, where UAVs act as nodes of a network function virtualization (NFV) enabled network. Our objective is to maximize energy efficiency and minimize the average delay on all services by allocating the limited radio and NFV resources. In addition, due to the traffic conditions and mobility of users, we let some Virtual Network Functions (VNFs) to migrate from their current locations to other locations to satisfy the Quality of Service requirements. We formulate our problem to find near-optimal locations of UAVs, transmit power, subcarrier assignment, placement, and scheduling the requested services functions over the UAVs and perform suitable VNF migration. Then we propose a novel Hierarchical Hybrid Continuous and Discrete Action (HHCDA) deep reinforcement learning method to solve our problem. Finally, the convergence and computational complexity of the proposed algorithm and its performance analyzed for different parameters. Simulation results show that our proposed HHCDA method decreases the request reject rate and average delay by 31.5% and 20% and increases the energy efficiency by 40% compared to DDPG method.
The research efforts on cellular vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications are gaining momentum with each passing year. It is considered as a paradigm-altering approach to connect a large number of vehicles with minimal cost of deployment and maintenance. This article aims to further push the state-of-the-art of cellular V2X communications by providing an optimization framework for wireless charging, power allocation, and resource block assignment. Specifically, we design a network model where roadside objects use wireless power from RF signals of electric vehicles for charging and information processing. Moreover, due to the resource-constraint nature of cellular V2X, the power allocation and resource block assignment are performed to efficiently use the resources. The proposed optimization framework shows an improvement in terms of the overall energy efficiency of the network when compared with the baseline technique. The performance gains of the proposed solution clearly demonstrate its feasibility and utility for cellular V2X communications.
