Cross Layer Power Allocation by Graph Neural Networks in Heterogeneous D2D Video Communications by Shu-Ming Tseng, Sz-Tze Wen, Chao Fang, Mehdi Norouzi

“…Therefore, in this paper, we propose the video-optimized heterogeneous interference graph neural network (VD-HIGNN) as a cross-layer D2D resource allocation method for video transmission, which introduces the following contributions: 1) joint source encoder rate and beamforming/power control, 2) incorporating video rate distortion function parameters from the application layer into the node features, and 3) changing the loss function from data rate to Peak-Signal-to-Noise-Ratio (PSNR), a function of video rate distortion and a metric of video quality. …”
