Radio Environment Map and Deep Q-Learning for 5G Dynamic Point Blanking
share
Dynamic Point Blanking (DPB) is one of the Coordinated MultiPoint (CoMP) techniques, where some Base Stations (BSs) can be temporarily muted, e.g., to improve the cell-edge users throughput. In this paper, it is proposed to obtain the muting pattern that improves cell-edge users throughput with the use of a Deep Q-Learning. The Deep Q-Learning agent is trained on location-dependent data. Simulation studies have shown that the proposed solution improves cell-edge user throughput by about 20.6
