Abstract

We propose a method for downlink coordinated multipoint (DL CoMP) in heterogeneous fifth generation New Radio (NR) networks. The primary contribution of our paper is to apply online machine learning using a support vector machine (SVM) classifier in the physical layer to enhance the user throughput in a scalable network environment. Our simulation results show improvement in both the macro and pico base station peak throughputs due to the informed triggering of the multiple DL CoMP radio streams as learned by the SVM classifier.
