A Model-Data Dual-Driven Resource Allocation Scheme for IREE Oriented 6G Networks

Abstract

The rapid and substantial fluctuations in wireless network capacity and traffic demand, driven by the emergence of 6G technologies, have exacerbated the issue of traffic-capacity mismatch, raising concerns about wireless network energy consumption. To address this challenge, we propose a model-data dual-driven resource allocation (MDDRA) algorithm aimed at maximizing the integrated relative energy efficiency (IREE) metric under dynamic traffic conditions. Unlike conventional model-driven or data-driven schemes, the proposed MDDRA framework employs a model-driven Lyapunov queue to accumulate long-term historical mismatch information and a data-driven Graph Radial bAsis Fourier (GRAF) network to predict the traffic variations under incomplete data, and hence eliminates the reliance on high-precision models and complete spatial-temporal traffic data. We establish the universal approximation property of the proposed GRAF network and provide convergence and complexity analysis for the MDDRA algorithm. Numerical experiments validate the performance gains achieved through the data-driven and model-driven components. By analyzing IREE and EE curves under diverse traffic conditions, we recommend that network operators shall spend more efforts to balance the traffic demand and the network capacity distribution to ensure the network performance, particularly in scenarios with large speed limits and higher driving visibility.
