Queue-Aware Joint Dynamic Interference Coordination and Heterogeneous QoS Provisioning in OFDMA Networks
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We propose algorithms for cloud radio access networks that not only provide heterogeneous quality of-service (QoS) for rate- and, importantly, delay-sensitive applications, but also jointly optimize the frequency reuse pattern. Importantly, unlike related works, we account for random arrivals, through queue awareness and, unlike the majority of works focusing on a single frame only, we consider QoS measures averaged over multiple frames involving a set of closed loop controls. We model this problem as multi-cell optimization to maximize a sum utility subject to the QoS constraints, expressed as minimum mean-rate or maximum mean-delay. Since we consider dynamic interference coordination jointly with dynamic user association, the problem is not convex, even after integer relaxation. We translate the problem into an optimization of frame rates, amenable to a decomposition into intertwined primal and dual problems. The solution to this optimization problem provides joint decisions on scheduling, dynamic interference coordination, and, importantly, unlike most works in this area, on dynamic user association. Additionally, we propose a novel method to manage infeasible loads. Extensive simulations confirm that the design responds to instantaneous loads, heterogeneous user and AP locations, channel conditions, and QoS constraints while, if required, keeping outage low when dealing with infeasible loads. Comparisons to the baseline proportional fair scheme illustrate the gains achieved.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
