Knowledge Defined Networking for 6G: A Reinforcement Learning Example for Resource Management

Abstract: 6G networks are expected to revolutionize connectivity, offering significant improvements in speed, capacity, and smart automation. However, existing network designs will struggle to handle the demands of 6G, which include much faster speeds, a huge increase in connected devices, lower energy consumption, extremely quick response times, and better mobile broadband. To solve this problem, incorporating the AI technologies has been proposed. This idea led to the concept of Knowledge-Defined Networking (KDN). KDN promises many improvements, such as resource management, routing, scheduling, clustering, and mobility prediction. The main goal of this study is to optimize resource management using Reinforcement Learning.
