| الوصف: | The uplink of 5G networks allows selecting the transmit waveform between cyclic prefix orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (CP-OFDM) and discrete Fourier transform spread OFDM (DFT-S-OFDM), which is appealing for cell-edge users using high-frequency bands, since it shows a smaller peak-to-average power ratio, and allows a higher transmit power. Nevertheless, DFT-S-OFDM exhibits a higher block error rate (BLER) which complicates an optimal waveform selection. In this paper, we propose an intelligent waveform-switching mechanism based on deep reinforcement learning (DRL). In this proposal, a learning agent aims at maximizing a function built using available throughput percentiles in real networks. Said percentiles are weighted so as to improve the cell-edge users' service without dramatically reducing the cell average. Aggregated measurements of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and timing advance (TA), available in real networks, are used in the procedure. Results show that our proposed scheme greatly outperforms both metrics compared to classical approaches. Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures, 4 tables |
