Abstract:
In this paper semantic-aware model for radio resource management in wireless networks is introduced and studied through simulation. By semantic-awareness, the network can selectively manage the radio resource allocation based on the evaluation of transferred content, and its associated processing, and prioritize users that are close to experience interruptions, in order to improve the wireless resource utilization and the user’s Quality of Experience (QoE). Different radio resource management (RRM) strategies are proposed and investigated, considering buffer capacity at the terminals and the experience of the users in time while watching a video and waiting for resource allocation. The simulation results show that the users can reduce the total duration, frequency and length of the interruptions during a playback by applying semantic-awareness in the radio resource allocation, which might affect positively user’s QoE.
