At present, wireless network technology is advancing rapidly, and intelligent equipment is gradually popularized, which rapidly developed the mobile streaming media business. All kinds of mobile video applications have enriched people’s lives by carrying huge traffic randomly. Wireless networks (WNs) are facing an unprecedented burden, which allocates very important wireless video resources. Similarly, in WNs, the network status is dynamic and the terminal is heterogeneous, which causes the traditional video transmission system to fail to meet the needs of users. Hence, Scalable Video Coding (SVC) has been introduced in the video transmission system to achieve bit rate adaptation. However, in a strictly hierarchical traditional computer network, the wireless resource allocation strategy usually takes throughput as the only way to optimize the target, and it is terrible to make more optimizations for scalable video transmission. This article proposed a cross-layer design to enable information to be transmitted between the wireless base station and the video server to achieve joint optimization. To improve users’ satisfaction with video services, the wireless resource allocation problem and the video stream scheduling problem are jointly considered, which keep the optimization space larger. Based on the proposed architecture, we further study the design of wireless resource allocation algorithms and rate-adaptive algorithms for the scenario of multiuser transmission of scalable video in the Long-Term Evolution (LTE) downlink. Experimental outcomes have shown substantial performance enhancement of the proposed work.

The resource optimization of ultra-dense networks (UDNs) is critical to meet the huge demand of users for wireless data traffic. But the mainstream optimization algorithms have many problems, such as the poor optimization effect, and high computing load. This paper puts forward a wireless resource allocation algorithm based on deep reinforcement learning (DRL), which aims to maximize the total throughput of the entire network and transform the resource allocation problem into a deep Q-learning process. To effectively allocate resources in UDNs, the DRL algorithm was introduced to improve the allocation efficiency of wireless resources; the authors adopted the resource allocation strategy of the deep Q-network (DQN), and employed empirical repetition and target network to overcome the instability and divergence of the results caused by the previous network state, and to solve the overestimation of the Q value. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can maximize the total throughput of the network, while making the network more energy-efficient and stable. Thus, it is very meaningful to introduce the DRL to the research of UDN resource allocation.
