Course Introduction

Recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) has opened a new era of “intelligent wireless networks”, which pushes forward the use of AI technologies to resolve the challenges such as network planning, operation, management and troubleshooting in wireless networks. The development of intelligent wireless networks has been growing explosively and is becoming one of the biggest trends in related academic, research, and industry communities. This course is designed for postgraduate students who are working on the frontiers of wireless communication networks. This course aims at delivering a comprehensive overview of ML, and its application to deal with various problems in the physical (PHY) and medium access control (MAC) layers of communication networks such as transceiver design, channel estimation, prediction, and compression, resource allocation, semantic communications, distributed and federated learning and communications, etc.
