Place, Slice and Schedule: Hierarchical O-RAN Control of a Tethered mmWave UAV-gNB

Read the original on arXiv AI →

The paper proposes a hierarchical Open Radio Access Network (O‑RAN) control framework for tethered millimeter‑wave UAV‑mounted 5G base stations (gNBs). A Non‑Real‑Time RIC application jointly manages UAV placement and slice budgets, while a Near‑Real‑Time RIC application allocates per‑user resources using a permutation‑equivariant DeepSets Soft Actor‑Critic scheduler. This two‑level controller improves eMBB service‑level agreement satisfaction by up to 17 % and URLLC on‑time delivery by up to 42 % compared with conventional schedulers.

Adaptive Deadline- and Energy-Aware Caching Algorithms in Dynamic Multi-UAV Edge Networks

The paper proposes two caching strategies for multi‑UAV edge networks that jointly consider content deadlines, UAV communication energy, and energy imbalance. The first, DE‑UBAC, uses a rule‑based hierarchical approach with deadline prioritization and cooperative placement, but its fixed thresholds limit adaptability. The second, GRU‑DEPPO, integrates GRU‑based temporal representations with a centralized PPO actor‑critic, achieving a 61% lower deadline‑miss rate and 40% reduced energy imbalance compared to DE‑UBAC.

Improving 5G AI-RAN MCS Selection by Predicting Retransmissions

The paper introduces NOSTRAdAMUS, a predictive link‑adaptation framework for 5G NR that forecasts retransmissions in the next radio frame using recent HARQ history and adjusts the Modulation and Coding Scheme accordingly. Gradient Boosting models achieve 82.9% overall accuracy, with high‑confidence predictions correct 94.2% of the time and a 5.5 µs inference latency. Evaluated OTA on the X5G testbed and various channel emulators, the approach boosts goodput by up to 71.5% and cuts retransmissions by up to 71.8% without retraining across diverse scenarios.
