Abstract

In the evolving landscape of Open Radio Access Networks (Open RAN), the dynamic and unpredictable nature of network conditions presents significant challenges for traditional spectrum allocation strategies. This paper introduces an innovative framework that leverages Federated Learning (FL) to refine and enhance spectrum allocation within Open RAN. Utilizing the decentralized architecture of FL, our model introduces a system that is not only more adaptive to real-time changes but also offers enhanced robustness for spectrum management. We delve into the advantages of this approach, such as significant improvements in data traffic management, latency reduction, and overall network capacity enhancement. Additionally, we address potential implementation challenges, providing strategic countermeasures to ensure the successful deployment of our FL-based framework. Through this exploration, our paper underscores the transformative potential of integrating FL with Open RAN, marking a significant step forward in the application of AI technologies for optimizing wireless communication networks. This contribution opens new avenues for research in AI-driven spectrum allocation, setting a foundation for future empirical validations and the development of more efficient, intelligent telecommunication infrastructures.
