Multi-user multi-armed bandits have emerged as a good model for uncoordinated spectrum access problems. In this paper we consider the scenario where users cannot communicate with each other. In addition, the environment may appear differently to different users, ${i.e.}$, the mean rewards as observed by different users for the same channel may be different. With this setup, we present a policy that achieves a regret of $O (log{T})$. This paper has been accepted at Asilomar Conference on Signals, Systems, and Computers 2019.

A stochastic multi-user multi-armed bandit framework is used to develop algorithms for uncoordinated spectrum access. In contrast to prior work, it is assumed that rewards can be non-zero even under collisions, thus allowing for the number of users to be greater than the number of channels. The proposed algorithm consists of an estimation phase and an allocation phase. It is shown that if every user adopts the algorithm, the system wide regret is order-optimal of order $O(log T)$ over a time-horizon of duration $T$. The regret guarantees hold for both the cases where the number of users is greater than or less than the number of channels. The algorithm is extended to the dynamic case where the number of users in the system evolves over time, and is shown to lead to sub-linear regret.
Non-orthogonal multiple access (NoMA) as an efficient way of radio resource sharing has been identified as a promising technology in 5G to help improving system capacity, user connectivity, and service latency in 5G communications. This paper provides a brief overview of the progress of NoMA transceiver study in 3GPP, with special focus on the design of turbo-like iterative multi-user (MU) receivers. There are various types of MU receivers depending on the combinations of MU detectors and interference cancellation (IC) schemes. Link-level simulations show that expectation propagation algorithm (EPA) with hybrid parallel interference cancellation (PIC) is a promising MU receiver, which can achieve fast convergence and similar performance as message passing algorithm (MPA) with much lower complexity.
In this letter, a novel framework is proposed for analyzing data offloading in a multi-access edge computing system. Specifically, a two-phase algorithm, is proposed, including two key phases: user association phase and task offloading phase. In the first phase, a ruin theory-based approach is developed to obtain the users association considering the users transmission reliability. Meanwhile, in the second phase, an optimization-based algorithm is used to optimize the data offloading process. In particular, ruin theory is used to manage the user association phase, and a ruin probability-based preference profile is considered to control the priority of proposing users. Here, ruin probability is derived by the surplus buffer space of each edge node at each time slot. Giving the association results, an optimization problem is formulated to optimize the amount of offloaded data aiming at minimizing the energy consumption of users. Simulation results show that the developed solutions guarantee system reliability under a tolerable value of surplus buffer size and minimize the total energy consumption of all users.
Flexible numerologies are being considered as part of designs for 5G systems to support vertical services with diverse requirements such as enhanced mobile broadband, ultra-reliable low-latency communications, and massive machine type communication. Different vertical services can be multiplexed in either frequency domain, time domain, or both. In this paper, we investigate the use of spatial multiplexing of services using MU-MIMO where the numerologies for different users may be different. The users are grouped according to the chosen numerology and a separate pre-coder and FFT size is used per numerology at the transmitter. The pre-coded signals for the multiple numerologies are added in the time domain before transmission. We analyze the performance gains of this approach using capacity analysis and link level simulations using conjugate beamforming and signal-to-leakage noise ratio maximization techniques. We show that the MU interference between users with different numerologies can be suppressed efficiently with reasonable number of antennas at the base-station. This feature enables MU-MIMO techniques to be applied for 5G across different numerologies.
In this contribution, the performance of a multi-user system is analyzed in the context of frequency selective fading channels. Using game theoretic tools, a useful framework is provided in order to determine the optimal power allocation when users know only their own channel (while perfect channel state information is assumed at the base station). We consider the realistic case of frequency selective channels for uplink CDMA. This scenario illustrates the case of decentralized schemes, where limited information on the network is available at the terminal. Various receivers are considered, namely the Matched filter, the MMSE filter and the optimum filter. The goal of this paper is to derive simple expressions for the non-cooperative Nash equilibrium as the number of mobiles becomes large and the spreading length increases. To that end two asymptotic methodologies are combined. The first is asymptotic random matrix theory which allows us to obtain explicit expressions of the impact of all other mobiles on any given tagged mobile. The second is the theory of non-atomic games which computes good approximations of the Nash equilibrium as the number of mobiles grows.
