This addresses power allocation for federated learning in interference-limited wireless networks, which is an incremental improvement.

The paper tackles power allocation in wireless federated learning to maximize transmitted information under communication constraints, resulting in improved accuracy and efficiency of the global model, with numerical experiments showing it outperforms three baseline methods in transmission success rate and FL global performance.

We propose a data-driven approach for power allocation in the context of federated learning (FL) over interference-limited wireless networks. The power policy is designed to maximize the transmitted information during the FL process under communication constraints, with the ultimate objective of improving the accuracy and efficiency of the global FL model being trained. The proposed power allocation policy is parameterized using a graph convolutional network and the associated constrained optimization problem is solved through a primal-dual algorithm. Numerical experiments show that the proposed method outperforms three baseline methods in both transmission success rate and FL global performance.
