Abstract
In this paper,we introduce the scheme for bandwidth allocation and congestion avoidance in wireless intelligent ATM networks which is based on reinforcement learning (RL). Our solution guarantees a desired bandwidth to connections which require a fixed wide bandwidth according to QoS constraints. Any unused bandwidth is momentarily backed up (returned) to Virtual Circuits. Proposed RL method is also suitable for supporting the mapping between a single ATM switch port and a wireless access points. It can control the access points in wireless intelligent ATM networks.
