arXiv:2608. 01745v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Maximizing throughput under proportional fairness in dense wireless networks requires jointly managing user association, scheduling, base station (BS) activation, and handover control under hard finite-horizon energy and handover budgets, which induces a fundamental tension between BS-side energy management and user-side handover regulation.

The paper proposes a CSI‑free hierarchical multi‑agent reinforcement learning framework for controlling reconfigurable reflective surfaces in millimeter‑wave networks. By replacing per‑element channel estimation with user localization data, the system uses a two‑tier neural architecture: a high‑level controller for discrete user‑to‑reflector assignments and low‑level controllers that optimize continuous focal points via MAPPO under a CTDE scheme. Deterministic ray‑tracing tests show RSSI gains of up to 7.79 dB over centralized PPO baselines and robust performance with sub‑meter localization errors for multiple users and reflector arrays.

BIPPO (Budget-aware Independent Proximal Policy Optimization) is a multi‑agent reinforcement learning framework designed for energy‑efficient client selection in federated learning (FL) over IoT systems. It addresses infrastructure constraints such as limited resources and device churn, which traditional FL and RL approaches overlook. Evaluated on two image‑classification tasks with non‑IID data, BIPPO improves mean accuracy over non‑RL methods, standard PPO, and IPPO while consuming only a negligible portion of the budget, even as client numbers grow.

The paper introduces GQ-FSL, a green quantized federated split learning framework designed for wireless edge networks. It uses stochastic quantization for both local training and wireless transmissions, allowing asymmetric precision between client and server submodels to balance device energy limits with global convergence. The authors develop energy models and a convergence bound for heterogeneous data, then formulate an optimization problem to set the DNN split point and precision levels, achieving lower energy consumption while meeting latency and accuracy targets.
