Abstract

The present invention provides a femtocell power control method based on Q-learning, which belongs to the field of heterogeneous cellular networks of mobile communication technology; the method includes, according to the heterogeneous cellular network model, while considering inter-cell interference and intra-cell interference, Establish an energy efficiency optimization model with the minimum received signal SINR and maximum user transmit power as constraints, and the total energy efficiency of the femtocell as the optimization goal; according to the Q-learning algorithm, according to the energy efficiency optimization model, define the state space, action space, Reward function; by updating the state-action value function, the optimal power allocation strategy is obtained. Compared with the traditional power control algorithm, the present invention can effectively control the transmission power of the user terminal in the femto cell without knowing the channel state information, thereby reducing energy consumption and improving the energy efficiency of the system.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of heterogeneous cellular networks of mobile communication technology, and relates to an uplink power control method in a femtocell of a heterogeneous cellular network, in particular to a femtocell power control method based on Q-learning. Background technique [0002] The rapid development of mobile communications makes wireless networks face dual tasks, that is, on the premise of supporting rapid business growth, it is necessary to further reduce system energy consumption. Current heterogeneous cellular networks are generally composed of outdoor deployed macro base stations and indoor deployed home base stations. Outdoor macro base stations mainly use existing cellular network base stations. A home base station is a small base station with short-distance transmission. It is deployed within the coverage of a macro base station. It can increase indoor coverage, provide users with high-speed mobile services, and impro...
