Abstract:
As wireless standards evolve, more complex functionalities are introduced to address the increasing requirements in terms of throughput, latency, security, and efficiency. To unleash the potential of such new features, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) are currently being exploited for deriving models and protocols from data, rather than by hand-programming. In this paper, we explore the feasibility of applying ML in next-generation Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs). More specifically, we focus on the IEEE 802.11ax Spatial Reuse (SR) problem and predict its performance through Federated Learning (FL) models. The overview of the set of FL solutions in this work is part of the 2021 International Telecommunication Union (ITU) AI for 5G Challenge. |
