Distributed Learning for Vehicular Dynamic Spectrum Access in Autonomous Driving
Open accessAbstract
Reliable wireless communication between the autonomously driving cars is one of the fundamental needs for guaranteeing passenger safety and comfort. However, when the number of communicating cars increases, the transmission quality may be significantly degraded due to too high occupancy radio of the used frequency band. In this paper, we concentrate on the autonomous vehicle-platooning use-case, where intra-platoon communication is done in the dynamically selected frequency band, other than nominally devoted for such purposes. The carrier selection is done in a flexible manner with the support of the context database located at the roadside unit (edge of wireless communication infrastructure). However, as the database delivers only context information to the platoons’ leaders, the final decision is made separately by the individual platoons, following the suggestions made by the artificial intelligence algorithms. In this work, we concentrate on a lightweight Q-learning solution, that could be successfully implemented in each car for dynamic channel selection.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
