Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 12Multi-Agent Context Learning Strategy for Interference-Aware Beam Allocation in mmWave Vehicular Communications(IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2024-07) Kose, Abdulkadir; Lee, Haeyoung; Foh, Chuan Heng; Shojafar, MohammadMillimeter wave (mmWave) has been recognized as one of key technologies for 5G and beyond networks due to its potential to enhance channel bandwidth and network capacity. The use of mmWave for various applications including vehicular communications has been extensively discussed. However, applying mmWave to vehicular communications faces challenges of high mobility nodes and narrow coverage along the mmWave beams. Due to high mobility in dense networks, overlapping beams can cause strong interference which leads to performance degradation. As a remedy, beam switching capability in mmWave can be utilized. Then, frequent beam switching and cell change become inevitable to manage interference, which increase computational and signalling complexity. In order to deal with the complexity in interference control, we develop a new strategy called Multi-Agent Context Learning (MACOL), which utilizes Contextual Bandit to manage interference while allocating mmWave beams to serve vehicles in the network. Our approach demonstrates that by leveraging knowledge of neighbouring beam status, the machine learning agent can identify and avoid potential interfering transmissions to other ongoing transmissions. Furthermore, we show that even under heavy traffic loads, our proposed MACOL strategy is able to maintain low interference levels at around 10%.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Context-Aware Beam Selection for IRS-Assisted Mmwave V2I Communications(MDPI, 2025-06-24) Suarez del Valle, Ricardo; Kose, Abdulkadir; Lee, HaeyoungMillimeter wave (mmWave) technology, with its ultra-high bandwidth and low latency, holds significant promise for vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications. However, it faces challenges such as high propagation losses and limited coverage in dense urban vehicular environments. Intelligent Reflecting Surfaces (IRSs) help address these issues by enhancing mmWave signal paths around obstacles, thereby maintaining reliable communication. This paper introduces a novel Contextual Multi-Armed Bandit (C-MAB) algorithm designed to dynamically adapt beam and IRS selections based on real-time environmental context. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed C-MAB approach significantly improves link stability, doubling average beam sojourn times compared to traditional SNR-based strategies and standard MAB methods, and achieving gains of up to four times the performance in scenarios with IRS assistance. This approach enables optimized resource allocation and significantly improves coverage, data rate, and resource utilization compared to conventional methods.
