New Joint-Thompson Sampling algorithm improves communication link adaptation

By PulseAugur Editorial · [2 sources] ·

Researchers have introduced a new algorithm called Joint-Thompson Sampling (Joint-TS) for link adaptation in communication systems. This algorithm models the problem as a multi-armed bandit, where each modulation and coding scheme (MCS) is an arm. Unlike traditional Thompson Sampling, Joint-TS uses a multivariate ordered Beta distribution to account for the inherent ordering of MCS success probabilities, leading to more robust and consistent performance across various scenarios.

    Link Adaptation Using Joint-Thompson Sampling

    The choice of Modulation and Coding (MCS) type for a particular channel condition is made through link adaptation (LA) algorithms that operate at the MAC layer. These algorithms rely on the ACK/NACK statistics and the channel quality index (CQI) feedback. Several existing works m…
