| Abstract | There is an urgent need to support high data rate among connected vehicles for both safety and infotainment purposes. However, high rate for vehicular communications is impacted by several challenges such as optimal beam tracking for multiple simultaneous-transmitting vehicles in highly-dynamic environments. In this paper, we aim to maximize the overall network throughput for multi-vehicular communications. We propose a reinforcement learning (RL) approach called combinatorial multi-armed bandit (CMAB) framework, where multiple arms (i.e., actions) form a super arm and can be played together, to handle the beam selection problem in a vehicular network. More specifically, we propose an adaptive combinatorial Thompson sampling algorithm, namely adaptive CTS, that CMAB embodies for appropriate selection of simultaneous beams in a high-mobility vehicular environment. The proposed approach applies the smart exploration-exploitation trade-off for the fast selection of beams. As the proposed adaptive CTS scheme produces a higher complexity over the search space which increases exponentially with the number of user, we also propose a sequential Thompson sampling (TS) algorithm where beam selection is performed in a one-by-one manner. We analyze the regret bounds for the proposed beam tracking algorithms. The performance of the proposed strategies are evaluated for multi-vehicle millimeter-wave (mmWave) simulation environments. Our results suggest that the proposed sequential approach performs almost similar to the simultaneous adaptive CTS scheme for tracking optimal beams in a multi-vehicular network with much reduced complexity. Simulation results also show that both of our proposed strategies approach the optimal achievable rate achieved by the genie-aided solution. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
