Slotted ALOHA with Reinforcement Learning

In this article we will discuss the potential of reinforcement learning (RL) to learn a backoff control policy for slotted ALOHA-type random access. We will use deep reinforcement learning (DRL) to learn a policy for multi user random access system. Slotted ALOHA Background Slotted ALOHA (sALOHA) protocol [1] for random access in wireless networks has…
