With the ubiquitous deployment of mobile sensors and smart devices, the scope of Internet of things (IoT) has extended to the space of mobile networks, where IoT terminals are moving around instead of being fixed in buildings, ground infrastructures, etc. In this paper, we consider such mobile Internet of things (MIoT), and propose an autonomous rate control (RC) scheme for the uplink transmission from MIoT terminals to access stations. A deep reinforcement learning (DRL) based approach is designed to capture the channel variations of the link and to improve the effectiveness of the rate selection for each egress frame. Extensive simulations are conducted for MIoT terminals including vehicles and UAVs and show significant throughput performance improvement comparing with traditional methods, as well as the robustness and scalability of the DRL-RC algorithm. The proposed DRL-RC can provide inspirations for efficient and scalable link adaptation schemes for MIoT terminals.
