MARL-based Design of Multi-Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Assisted Communication System with Hybrid Gaming Mode

As the future development direction of 6G, integrated space-air-ground communication well compensates for the drawback of insufficient current wireless communication coverage. In this paper, a Multi-Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (Multi-UAV) assisted communication algorithm with Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning (MARL) is proposed to solve the Nash equilibrium approximate solution in a hybrid game model composed of users and UAVs and solve the joint optimization problem of UAV trajectory design, multidimensional resource scheduling and user access strategy in dynamic environment. The Markov game concept is exploited to model this continuous decision process with a Centralized Training Distributed Execution (CTDE) mechanism, and the Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO) algorithm is extended to the multi-agent domain. Two policy output modes are designed for the action space, where both the discrete and continuous actions coexist. Then, the implementation is improved by combining Beta policy. Finally, the effectiveness of the algorithm is verified by simulation experiments.
