Q-Learning Based Routing Protocol for Congestion Avoidance

Abstract: The end-to-end delay in a wired network is strongly dependent on congestion on intermediate nodes. Among lots of feasible approaches to avoid congestion efficiently, congestion-aware routing protocols tend to search for an uncongested path toward the destination through rule-based approaches in reactive/incident-driven and distributed methods. However, these previous approaches have a problem accommodating the changing network environments in autonomous and self-adaptive operations dynamically. To overcome thi… Show more

“…When the RL agent chooses the route with the minimum delay and packet-loss ratio during implementation, it should receive the highest reward value. Authors in [26] employed a Q-learning as a congestion-aware routing protocol over SDN called (QCAR). They utilised a set of parameters to denote the node and link status, node queue length, the hop count to the destination and re-transmitted packet rate.…”

“…This paper aims to address this issue by introducing a framework that realises improving the satisfaction degree of end-users towards multimedia services by utilising SDN characteristics with RL, which intelligently decides the best path for multimedia flows. The proposed scheme follows the approach presented in [26], in terms of directly learning the route hop-by-hop. It also considers four link-state metrics (i.e., available bandwidth, delay, jitter and packet loss rate) as parameters for the RL agent to deliver video streaming packets.…”

“…In network routing protocols, literature [7] comprehensively analyzed and simulated typical AODV, DSDV, and OLSR protocols, but has not proposed a routing protocol with higher efficiency according to the differences obtained by simulation. Literature [8] introduced a clustering algorithm into the DSDV protocol and modified the criterion of link quality in the protocol so as to improve the network throughput. However, this method still used the method of flooding in the process of maintenance and path discovery, and the problems of transmission delay were not solved.…”
