Multi-Agent Off-Policy Deep Reinforcement Learning for Smart Campus Coverage
Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) has recently gained a great attention due to its real-time adaptation and effectiveness in complex optimization problems. This paper investigates the optimal deployment of millimeter-wave (mmWave) base stations (BSs) in a realistic, non-convex campus topology. The optimization problem is NP-hard, due to the non-convex, non-smooth nature of the max-min fairness objective. To overcome these constraints, we formulate the BS placement as a Markov Decision Process (MDP) and systematically benchmark four DRL schemes: a discrete single-agent Deep Q-Network (DQN), a s
