Cyrus+: A DRL-based Puncturing Solution to URLLC/eMBB Multiplexing in O-RANPuncturing is a promising technique in 3GPP to multiplex Enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB) and Ultra-Reliable Low Latency Communications (URLLC) traffic on the same 5G New Radio (NR) air interface. The essence of puncturing is to transmit URLLC packets on demand upon their arrival, by preempting the radio resources (or subcarriers) that are already allocated to eMBB traffic. Although it is considered most bandwidth efficient, puncturing URLLC data on eMBB can lead to degradation of eMBB's perfor…
