ML for Throughput Prediction in Multi-AP Wi-Fi Networks using Spatial Reuse | AI/ML IN 5G CHALLENGE
Multi-Access Point Coordination (MAPC) is one of the new features to be included in next generation Wi-Fi networks. It represents a radical change in the way traditional Wi-Fi networks work. Following the MAPC framework, APs can agree on how to share spectrum resources, aiming to improve the network efficiency by reducing unnecessary contention inside the same WLAN network. Several schemes like coordinated Spatial Reuse (c-SR), where multiple APs can transmit simultaneously, have been proposed to take advantage of the MAPC framework. \n\nThis problem statement proposes the use of Machine Learning (ML) to predict the throughput that a subset of APs using c-SR can achieve. Predicting the performance of different sets of transmitting devices is essential to derive the optimal set of groups in WLAN settings. Then, our goal is to build an ML model able to predict the achievable throughput given any random and maybe not present in the original dataset combination of APs that aim to transmit simultaneously and also use it to find the best groups of APs in different network scenarios, and topologies. \n\n Speakers:\nDavid Nuñez Cuadrad\nWireless Technologies Researcher\nUniversitat Pompeu Fabra\n\n Moderators:\nVishnu Ram OV\nIndependent Research Consultant\nInternational Telecommunication Union (ITU)\n\nJoin the Neural Network! \nhttps://aiforgood.itu.int/neural-network/\nThe AI for Good networking community platform powered by AI. \nDesigned to help users build connections with innovators and experts, link innovative ideas with social impact opportunities, and bring the community together to advance the SDGs using AI.\n\n Watch the latest #AIforGood videos!\n\n\nExplore more #AIforGood content:\n AI for Good Top Hits\n • Top Hits \n\n AI for Good Webinars\n • AI for Good Webinars \n\n AI for Good Keynotes\n • AI for Good Keynotes \n\n Stay updated and join our weekly AI for Good newsletter:\nhttp://eepurl.com/gI2kJ5\n\n Discover what's next on our programme!\nhttps://aiforgood.itu.int/programme/\n\nCheck out the latest AI for Good news:\nhttps://aiforgood.itu.int/newsroom/\n\nExplore the AI for Good blog:\nhttps://aiforgood.itu.int/ai-for-good-blog/\n\n Connect on our social media:\nWebsite: https://aiforgood.itu.int/\nTwitter: https://twitter.com/ITU_AIForGood\nLinkedIn Page: https://www.linkedin.com/company/26511907 \nLinkedIn Group: https://www.linkedin.com/groups/8567748 \nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/aiforgood \nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/AIforGood\n\nWhat is AI for Good?\nThe AI for Good series is the leading action-oriented, global & inclusive United Nations platform on AI.
