摘要:

5G网络的广泛部署,加上4G/LTE网络的共存,为移动设备提供了多种候选小区以连接。然而,通过关联移动设备到小区以最大化整体网络性能,即细胞(重新)选择,仍然是移动运营商面临的关键挑战。目前,细胞(重新)选择参数通常基于运营商经验手动配置,很少适应动态网络条件。在本工作中,我们提出一个问题:智能体能否自动学习并适应细胞(重新)选择参数,以持续提高网络性能?我们提出了一种基于强化学习(RL)的框架,称为CellPilot,通过学习移动网络动态的时空模式,自适应地调整细胞(重新)选择参数。我们的研究使用真实数据表明,即使是一个轻量级的RL智能体,也能在某些情况下比传统启发式重新配置提高多达167%,并且能够有效泛化到不同的网络场景。这些结果表明,数据驱动的方法可以显著改进细胞(重新)选择配置,并提升移动网络性能。

英文摘要:

The widespread deployment of 5G networks, together with the coexistence of 4G/LTE networks, provides mobile devices a diverse set of candidate cells to connect to. However, associating mobile devices to cells to maximize overall network performance, a.k.a. cell (re)selection, remains a key challenge for mobile operators. Today, cell (re)selection parameters are typically configured manually based on operator experience and rarely adapted to dynamic network conditions. In this work, we ask: Can an agent automatically learn and adapt cell (re)selection parameters to consistently improve network performance? We present a reinforcement learning (RL)-based framework called CellPilot that adaptively tunes cell (re)selection parameters by learning spatiotemporal patterns of mobile network dynamics. Our study with real-world data demonstrates that even a lightweight RL agent can outperform conventional heuristic reconfigurations by up to 167%, while generalizing effectively across different network scenarios. These results indicate that data-driven approaches can significantly improve cell (re)selection configurations and enhance mobile network performance.
