Deep Reinforcement Learning Powered IRS-Assisted Downlink NOMA by Muhammad Shehab (16904880)

“…The optimization problem at the IRS is quite complicated, and non-convex since it requires the tuning of the phase shift reflection matrix. Driven by the rising deployment of deep reinforcement learning (DRL) techniques that are capable of coping with solving non-convex optimization problems, we employ DRL to predict and optimally tune the IRS phase shift matrices. …”
