Due to the very complex dependency between the radio conditions and the computing resources needed to provide the baseband processing functionality, attaining an efficient resource control is particularly challenging. In this demonstration, we will showcase vrAIn, a vRAN dynamic resource controller that employs deep reinforcement learning to perform resource assignment decisions. vrAIn, which is implemented using an open-source LTE stack over a Linux platform, can achieve substantial savings in the used CPU resources while maintaining the target QoS for the attached terminals and maximizing throughput when there is a deficit of computational capacity.3eng© 2019 Copyright held by the owner/author(s).Deep learningVirtualized RANPrototypesNetwork measurementProgrammable networksMobile networksDemo: vrAIn proof-of-concept: a deep learning approach for virtualized RAN resource controlconference presentationTelecomunicacioneshttps://doi.org/10.1145/3300061.3343370open accessProceedings of the 25th Annual International Conference on Mobile Computing and Networking (MobiCom'19)CC/0000029939
