Intelligent Dynamic Spectrum Resource Management Based on Sensing Data in Space-Time and Frequency Domain

Edge computing offers a promising paradigm for implementing the industrial Internet of things (IIoT) by offloading intensive computing tasks from resource constrained machine type devices to powerful edge servers. However, efficient spectrum resource management is required to meet the quality of service requirements of various applications, taking into account the limited spectrum resources, batteries, and the characteristics of available spectrum fluctuations. Therefore, this study proposes intelligent dynamic spectrum resource management consisting of learning engines that select optimal backup channels based on history data, reasoning engines that infer idle channels based on backup channel lists, and transmission parameter optimization engines based genetic algorithm using interference analysis in time, space and frequency domains. The performance of the proposed intelligent dynamic spectrum resource management was evaluated in terms of the spectrum efficiency, number of spectrum handoff, latency, energy consumption, and link maintenance probability according to the backup channel selection technique and the number of IoT devices and the use of transmission parameters optimized for each traffic environment. The results demonstrate that the proposed method is superior to existing spectrum resource management functions.
