Descripció del contingut i pla d'activitats:
This TFM proposes a methodology for the identification an mitigation of cell overload due to traffic congestion situations (i.e. identification of concentrations of static/semi-static users in within the cell specific periods of time) in 5G (or Beyond 5G) cellular networks. The identification of these situations is crucial to guarantee enough available resources to satisfy the user quality requirements.

The proposed methodology is based on the use of an Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning methodology. In particular, it makes use of an unsupervised learning approach based on a clustering algorithm. This clustering algorithm is fed by a set of available realistic measurements of the user locations and trajectories inside the different cells of a cellular network deployed in the city of Cologne (Germany).

For this purpose, a network simulator (already developed in Python by the supervisor of this TFM) is available. The main functionalities of the simulator are available. The objective of this TFM is to develope the methodology in the provided simulator and evaluate the obtained results by means of simulations in the considered scenario.
