-Network node collects information: Routing Information Protocol -learning by implicit coordination: Traffic periodicity and characteristics -learning by discovery mechanisms: presence of the entity, type of service and address.

A: Learning in Centralized Systems

Design and Development of Behavioral rules based on information such as data from sensors or past experience saved in databases

Online Learning
Multiple Cells share the same spectrum with macrocells
Q-learning each small cell acts as an intelligent agent that learns a power allocation policy to control the total interference generated at the macro users (distributively learn a joint optimal power allocation policy to achieve the common objective maintaining the aggregated interference at the macro users below a threshold) Cognitive algorithms: Surrounding environment, spectrum occupancy or interference temperature, past experiences such as dynamics of interference or statistics of spectral occupancy.

Online Learning with incomplete Information

Observation on the environment which decides on the future actions of small cells:
-interference level caused by macrocells

Performance of transmit/receive configuration

- Power control policy for the networks with finite numbers of transmitters and power levels.

Self Organized Resource Allocation

Total available frequency band

Each cell selects best band portion with respect to interference level. (Reinforcement Learning).
For Continuity, each cell follows MAB strategy to have the control of interference at UEs and throughput. Reward function is established in order to use in the next step.
