Abstract:

With the rapid development of mobile communication technology, short video applications, which combine the features of both social and multimedia applications, have become more and more popular. However, the transmission of short videos poses great challenges to the existing mobile networks. In this paper, mobile edge computing is adopted to provide content caching of short videos close to end users. To improve the quality of service, we take both the quality level of the video and the long-term wireless network transmission performance into consideration. The joint video quality selection and radio bearer control optimization problem is formulated as a Markov decision process, aiming at maximizing the long-term video quality profit and minimizing the cost of bearers and the penalty of latency. Deep reinforcement learning is used as the solution and the policy gradient based quality selection and radio bearer control method is proposed. The REINFORCE algorithm with baseline is used to train the policy network, and the episodic simulations are built to obtain the training samples. Different weight coefficients of the objective function are configured. Training results show that the proposed method can achieve the best accumulated value among all the comparison methods. When the weight coefficients are changed, the training processes can lead the policy networks to obtain proper trade-off between different objective factors. Moreover, the performance of the trained policy network is evaluated with different short video request arriving rates. Testing results show that the proposed method performs well when the arriving rates vary in a certain range.
