Artificial Intelligence-Based Radio Resource Management in Sliced Radio Access Networks

In this thesis, we design and assess a multi-slice resource allocation framework that is based on machine learning techniques (subset of artificial intelligence techniques). The proposed framework employs two machine learning techniques namely, artificial neural networks and reinforcement learning for resource management in sliced RAN....

Evaluating the suitability of Narrowband Internet-of-Things (NB-IoT) for smart grids

Narrowband Internet-of-Things (NB-IoT), recently introduced by 3GPP, is a relevant Radio Access Technology (RAT) solution for deployment within smart grids, the electricity grids of the future, due to the need to provide low-cost connectivity to a large number of smart meters installed in households. Outage Restoration and Management (ORM), a...
