Abstract

With the advancement of wireless networks the data needs of the wireless internet have become so great, and the use of 4G and 5G so ubiquitous, that challenges arise in the availability and distribution of resources. In this paper we examine an application of Machine Learning and subsequently Neural Networks to offer a solution to this problem. The, now more than ever, profound availability of processing power greatly empowers and makes the deployment of these tools easier than ever, even in problems where in the past their application would not be feasible. The use of machine learning techniques to distribute resources in wireless networks is investigated and contrasted to a traditional algorithmic method. Scenarios are also entertained in which such approaches might be applicable.
