Integrating Reinforcement Learning into M/M/1/K Retry Queueing Models for 6G Applications by Djamila Talbi, Zoltan Gal

“…The system’s performance is examined under extensive simulations, taking into account multiple arrival rates, queue sizes, and reward scaling factors. The results show that the integration of RL in the 6G-RQS model successfully enhances queue management while maintaining the high performance of the system, and this is by increasing the number of mobile terminals served, even under different and higher traffic demands. …”
