Vehicular edge computing (VEC) is envisioned as a promising approach to process the explosive computation tasks of vehicular user (VU). In the VEC system, each VU allocates power to process partial tasks through offloading and the remaining tasks through local execution. During the offloading, each VU adopts the multi-input multi-out and non-orthogonal multiple access (MIMO-NOMA) channel to improve the channel spectrum efficiency and capacity. However, the channel condition is uncertain due to the channel interference among VUs caused by the MIMO-NOMA channel and the time-varying path-loss caused by the mobility of each VU. In addition, the task arrival of each VU is stochastic in the real world. The stochastic task arrival and uncertain channel condition affect greatly on the power consumption and latency of tasks for each VU. It is critical to design an optimal power allocation scheme considering the stochastic task arrival and channel variation to optimize the long-term reward including the power consumption and latency in the MIMO-NOMA VEC. Different from the traditional centralized deep reinforcement learning (DRL)-based scheme, this paper constructs a decentralized DRL framework to formulate the power allocation optimization problem, where the local observations are selected as the state. The deep deterministic policy gradient (DDPG) algorithm is adopted to learn the optimal power allocation scheme based on the decentralized DRL framework. Simulation results demonstrate that our proposed power allocation scheme outperforms the existing schemes.

Achieving significant performance gains both in terms of system throughput and massive connectivity, non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) has been considered as a very promising candidate for future wireless communications technologies. It has alrea dy received serious consideration for implementation in the fifth generation (5G) and beyond wireless communication systems. This is mainly due to NOMA allowing more than one user to utilise one transmission resource simultaneously at the transmitter side and successive interference cancellation (SIC) at the receiver side. However, in order to take advantage of the benefits, NOMA provides in an optimal manner, power allocation needs to be considered to maximise the system throughput. This problem is non-deterministic polynomial-time (NP)-hard which is mainly why the use of deep learning techniques for power allocation is required. In this paper, a state-of-the-art review on cutting-edge solutions to the power allocation optimisation problem using deep learning is provided. It is shown that the use of deep learning techniques to obtain effective solutions to the power allocation problem in NOMA is paramount for the future of NOMA-based wireless communication systems. Furthermore, several possible research directions based on the use of deep learning in NOMA systems are presented.
Cellular vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication is crucial to support future diverse vehicular applications. However, for safety-critical applications, unstable vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) links and high signalling overhead of centralized resource al location approaches become bottlenecks. In this paper, we investigate a joint optimization problem of transmission mode selection and resource allocation for cellular V2X communications. In particular, the problem is formulated as a Markov decision process, and a deep reinforcement learning (DRL) based decentralized algorithm is proposed to maximize the sum capacity of vehicle-to-infrastructure users while meeting the latency and reliability requirements of V2V pairs. Moreover, considering training limitation of local DRL models, a two-timescale federated DRL algorithm is developed to help obtain robust model. Wherein, the graph theory based vehicle clustering algorithm is executed on a large timescale and in turn the federated learning algorithm is conducted on a small timescale. Simulation results show that the proposed DRL-based algorithm outperforms other decentralized baselines, and validate the superiority of the two-timescale federated DRL algorithm for newly activated V2V pairs.

Mobile edge computing (MEC) is a promising technology to support mission-critical vehicular applications, such as intelligent path planning and safety applications. In this paper, a collaborative edge computing framework is developed to reduce the co mputing service latency and improve service reliability for vehicular networks. First, a task partition and scheduling algorithm (TPSA) is proposed to decide the workload allocation and schedule the execution order of the tasks offloaded to the edge servers given a computation offloading strategy. Second, an artificial intelligence (AI) based collaborative computing approach is developed to determine the task offloading, computing, and result delivery policy for vehicles. Specifically, the offloading and computing problem is formulated as a Markov decision process. A deep reinforcement learning technique, i.e., deep deterministic policy gradient, is adopted to find the optimal solution in a complex urban transportation network. By our approach, the service cost, which includes computing service latency and service failure penalty, can be minimized via the optimal workload assignment and server selection in collaborative computing. Simulation results show that the proposed AI-based collaborative computing approach can adapt to a highly dynamic environment with outstanding performance.
This letter studies an ultra-reliable low latency communication problem focusing on a vehicular edge computing network in which vehicles either fetch and synthesize images recorded by surveillance cameras or acquire the synthesized image from an edge computing server. The notion of risk-sensitive in financial mathematics is leveraged to define a reliability measure, and the studied problem is formulated as a risk minimization problem for each vehicles end-to-end (E2E) task fetching and offloading delays. Specifically, by resorting to a joint utility and policy estimation-based learning algorithm, a distributed risk-sensitive solution for task fetching and offloading is proposed. Simulation results show that our proposed solution achieves performance improvements up to 40% variance reduction and steeper distribution tail of the E2E delay over an averaged-based baseline.

In remote regions (e.g., mountain and desert), cellular networks are usually sparsely deployed or unavailable. With the appearance of new applications (e.g., industrial automation and environment monitoring) in remote regions, resource-constrained te rminals become unable to meet the latency requirements. Meanwhile, offloading tasks to urban terrestrial cloud (TC) via satellite link will lead to high delay. To tackle above issues, Satellite Edge Computing architecture is proposed, i.e., users can offload computing tasks to visible satellites for executing. However, existing works are usually limited to offload tasks in pure satellite networks, and make offloading decisions based on the predefined models of users. Besides, the runtime consumption of existing algorithms is rather high. In this paper, we study the task offloading problem in satellite-terrestrial edge computing networks, where tasks can be executed by satellite or urban TC. The proposed Deep Reinforcement learning-based Task Offloading (DRTO) algorithm can accelerate learning process by adjusting the number of candidate locations. In addition, offloading location and bandwidth allocation only depend on the current channel states. Simulation results show that DRTO achieves near-optimal offloading cost performance with much less runtime consumption, which is more suitable for satellite-terrestrial network with fast fading channel.
