Machine Learning in Beyond 5G/6G Networks—State-of-the-Art and Future Trends

Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) and especially Machine Learning (ML) can play a very important role in realizing and optimizing 6G network applications. In this paper, we present a brief summary of ML methods, as well as an up-to-date review of ML approaches in 6G wireless communication systems. These methods include supervised, unsupervised and reinforcement techniques. Additionally, we discuss open issues in the field of ML for 6G networks and wireless communications in general, as well as some potential future trends to motivate further research into this area.
