Dual time scale resource allocation for RAN slicing in software-defined oriented polymorphic IoV
To effectively meet the differentiated quality of service (QoS) requirements of various vehicular applications
a dual time scale resource allocation algorithm for radio access network (RAN) slicing in software-defined polymorphic Internet of vehicles (IoV) was proposed.Considering the constraints of the minimum rate requirement of enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB) slice users
vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) link reliability
the maximum power of nodes
the maximum number of RBs
a joint optimization problem of caching
spectrum
power allocation was formulated
with the aim of minimizing the average delay of ultra-reliable and low-latency communication (URLLC) slice users.By using the Hungarian algorithm
linear integer programming method and the double deep Q-Learning network (DDQN) algorithm
the original NP-hard problem was solved in dual time scales.The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm is superior to the traditional algorithm in ensuring the QoS requirements of different slice users and improving the spectrum utilization.
