Cache-aided content delivery is studied in a multi-server system with $P$ servers and $K$ users, each equipped with a local cache memory. In the delivery phase, each user connects randomly to any $rho$ out of $P$ servers. Thanks to the availability of multiple servers, which model small base stations with limited storage capacity, user demands can be satisfied with reduced storage capacity at each server and reduced delivery rate per server; however, this also leads to reduced multicasting opportunities compared to a single server serving all the users simultaneously. A joint storage and proactive caching scheme is proposed, which exploits coded storage across the servers, uncoded cache placement at the users, and coded delivery. The delivery textit{latency} is studied for both textit{successive} and textit{simultaneous} transmission from the servers. It is shown that, with successive transmission the achievable average delivery latency is comparable to that achieved by a single server, while the gap between the two depends on $rho$, the available redundancy across servers, and can be reduced by increasing the storage capacity at the SBSs.

Cache-aided content delivery is studied in a multi-server system with $P$ servers and $K$ users, each equipped with a local cache memory. In the delivery phase, each user connects randomly to any $rho$ out of $P$ servers. Thanks to the availability of multiple servers, which model small-cell base stations (SBSs), demands can be satisfied with reduced storage capacity at each server and reduced delivery rate per server; however, this also leads to reduced multicasting opportunities compared to the single-server scenario. A joint storage and proactive caching scheme is proposed, which exploits coded storage across the servers, uncoded cache placement at the users, and coded delivery. The delivery textit{latency} is studied for both textit{successive} and textit{parallel} transmissions from the servers. It is shown that, with successive transmissions the achievable average delivery latency is comparable to the one achieved in the single-server scenario, while the gap between the two depends on $rho$, the available redundancy across the servers, and can be reduced by increasing the storage capacity at the SBSs. The optimality of the proposed scheme with uncoded cache placement and MDS-coded server storage is also proved for successive transmissions.
The multi-access variant of the coded caching problem in the presence of an external wiretapper is investigated . A multi-access coded caching scheme with $K$ users, $K$ caches and $N$ files, where each user has access to $L$ neighbouring caches in a cyclic wrap-around manner, is proposed, which is secure against the wiretappers. Each transmission in the conventional insecure scheme will be now encrypted by a random key. The proposed scheme uses a novel technique for the key placement in the caches. It is also shown that the proposed secure multi-access coded caching scheme is within a constant multiplicative factor from the information-theoretic optimal rate for $Lgeq frac{K}{2}$ and $Ngeq 2K$.
The demand private coded caching problem in a multi-access network with $K$ users and $K$ caches, where each user has access to $L$ neighbouring caches in a cyclic wrap-around manner, is studied. The additional constraint imposed is that one user should not get any information regarding the demands of the remaining users. A lifting construction of demand private multi-access coded caching scheme from conventional, non-private multi-access scheme is introduced. The demand-privacy for a user is ensured by placing some additional textit{keys} in a set of caches called the textit{private set} of that user. For a given $K$ and $L$, a technique is also devised to find the private sets of the users.
We study downlink beamforming in a single-cell network with a multi-antenna base station serving cache-enabled users. Assuming a library of files with a common rate, we formulate the minimum transmit power with proactive caching and coded delivery as a non-convex optimization problem. While this multiple multicast problem can be efficiently solved by successive convex approximation (SCA), the complexity of the problem grows exponentially with the number of subfiles delivered to each user in each time slot, which itself grows exponentially with the number of users. We introduce a low-complexity alternative through time-sharing that limits the number of subfiles received by a user in each time slot. We then consider the joint design of beamforming and content delivery with sparsity constraints to limit the number of subfiles received by a user in each time slot. Numerical simulations show that the low-complexity scheme has only a small performance gap to that obtained by solving the joint problem with sparsity constraints, and outperforms state-of-the-art results at all signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and rate values with a sufficient number of transmit antennas. A lower bound on the achievable degrees-of-freedom (DoF) of the low-complexity scheme is derived to characterize its performance in the high SNR regime.
In this paper, we consider the coded-caching broadcast network with user cooperation, where a server connects with multiple users and the users can cooperate with each other through a cooperation network. We propose a centralized coded caching scheme based on a new deterministic placement strategy and a parallel delivery strategy. It is shown that the new scheme optimally allocate the communication loads on the server and users, obtaining cooperation gain and parallel gain that greatly reduces the transmission delay. Furthermore, we show that the number of users who parallelly send information should decrease when the users caching size increases. In other words, letting more users parallelly send information could be harmful. Finally, we derive a constant multiplicative gap between the lower bound and upper bound on the transmission delay, which proves that our scheme is order optimal.
