Conference Object Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 5Contextual Multi-Armed Bandit Based Beam Allocation in mmWave V2x Communication Under Blockage(IEEE, 2023-06) Cassillas, Arturo Medina; Koset, Abdulkadir; Leet, Haeyoung; Foh, Chuan Heng; Leowt, Chee Yen; Lee, Haeyoung; Yen Leow, Chee; Kose, AbdulkadirDue to its low latency and high data rates support, mmWave communication has been an important player for vehicular communication. However, this carries some disadvantages such as lower transmission distances and inability to transmit through obstacles. This work presents a Contextual Multi-Armed Bandit Algorithm based beam selection to improve connection stability in next generation communications for vehicular networks. The algorithm, through machine learning (ML), learns about the mobility contexts of the vehicles (location and route) and helps the base station make decisions on which of its beam sectors will provide connection to a vehicle. In addition, the proposed algorithm also smartly extends, via relay vehicles, beam coverage to outage vehicles which are either in NLOS condition due to blockages or not served any available beam. Through a set of experiments on the city map, the effectiveness of the algorithm is demonstrated, and the best possible solution is presented.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.
