Abstract
We present a deep reinforcement learning (DRL) framework for joint user
scheduling and power control in massive MIMO networks. The proposed
scheduler learns to allocate resources across users in real time,
adapting to channel dynamics and traffic demands while satisfying
fairness and quality-of-service constraints. Evaluations on realistic
channel models demonstrate substantial throughput and fairness
improvements over conventional schedulers.

I work at the intersection of computer systems and wireless
networking — building programmable, intelligent infrastructure for
5G/6G and Open RAN. A common thread across my projects is algorithm
and system design across FPGA, GPU, and CPU — spanning real-time
massive MIMO baseband on commodity servers, many-antenna hardware
platforms, and learning-driven schedulers. I am currently focused on
virtualized Open RAN systems and ML-enabled RAN software design.
