Some MIMO applications in cognitive radio networks by Salib, Feeby Magdy Girgis

“…In cognitive radio networks, the radio spectrum resources utilization is improved by allowing unlicensed users, known as secondary users, to share the spectrum with licensed users, known as primary users, as long as this sharing do not induce harmful interference on the primary users, which completely entitled to utilize the spectrum. …”

Machine learning approach to slice admission control in 5G wireless network by Ojijo, Mourice

“…By increasing the probability of admission during periods of resource availability, the findings demonstrate that the reinforcement learning agent improves long-term utility and fairness by 68.2%. Finally, this thesis proposes a novel sequential twin-actor critic (STAC) method that optimizes a two-stage action process—namely, slice admission control (SAC) and resilience maintenance—by adjusting network resource blocks (RBs) to maximize overall utility. …”
