Abstract:

In this paper, we propose a novel power control scheme for small cells deployed within macro cells. Our aim is to find the optimal power level for each small cell according to the energy consumption tradeoff between network and User Equipments (UEs). Two different small cell deployment scenarios are considered: the non-dense scenario and the dense scenario. The multiagent decentralized Reinforcement Learning (RL) technique is applied to deal with the dense deployment scenario where the coverage of different small cells are overlapped. In the proposed multiagent RL algorithm, each small cell is modeled as an agent to learn the optimal policy from interaction with environment to dynamically change its transmit power. Simulation results are presented to validate the proposed method and show that the RL based algorithm could provide a satisfactory performance.
