Superposition-Based URLLC Traffic Scheduling in 5G and Beyond Wireless Networks
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Ultra-Reliable and Low Latency Communications (URLLC) is one of the essential services in 5G networks and beyond. The coexistence of URLLC alongside other services, namely, enhanced Mobile BroadBand (eMBB) and massive Machine-Type Communications (mMTC), calls for developing spectrally efficient multiplexing techniques. In this work, we study the problem of scheduling URLLC traffic in a downlink system in the presence of eMBB traffic. Based on the proposed superposition/puncturing scheme, a resource allocation problem is formulated with the objective to minimize the rate loss of the eMBB service and URLLC packet segmentation loss while satisfying the eMBB and URLLC quality of service (QoS) constraints. The resulting problem is formulated as a mixed-integer non-linear program (MINLP) which is generally very hard to solve in polynomial time. Hence, we reformulate the problem as a one-to-one pairing problem and we derive its feasibility region as well as the optimal solutions for the power and spectral resource allocation. Subsequently, we propose a low complexity algorithm to support the many-to-many pairing. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm achieves higher URLLC packet admission rate and lower rate loss for eMBB. For instance, the URLLC packet admission rate, unlike baseline methods, is shown to be preserved under the proposed method even at higher URLLC load. It is shown that at least 30% more URLLC users can be served without degrading their QoS, while keeping the impact on eMBB rate minimal. Detailed numerical evaluation is presented to quantify the benefits of the proposed method.

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.
