This paper studies the performance of cache-enabled dense small cell networks consisting of multi-antenna sub-6 GHz and millimeter-wave base stations. Different from the existing works which only consider a single antenna at each base station, the optimal content placement is unknown when the base stations have multiple antennas. We first derive the successful content delivery probability by accounting for the key channel features at sub-6 GHz and mmWave frequencies. The maximization of the successful content delivery probability is a challenging problem. To tackle it, we first propose a constrained cross-entropy algorithm which achieves the near-optimal solution with moderate complexity. We then develop another simple yet effective heuristic probabilistic content placement scheme, termed two-stair algorithm, which strikes a balance between caching the most popular contents and achieving content diversity. Numerical results demonstrate the superior performance of the constrained cross-entropy method and that the two-stair algorithm yields significantly better performance than only caching the most popular contents. The comparisons between the sub-6 GHz and mmWave systems reveal an interesting tradeoff between caching capacity and density for the mmWave system to achieve similar performance as the sub-6 GHz system.

Caching high-frequency reuse contents at the edge servers in the mobile edge computing (MEC) network omits the part of backhaul transmission and further releases the pressure of data traffic. However, how to efficiently decide the caching contents fo
r edge servers is still an open problem, which refers to the cache capacity of edge servers, the popularity of each content, and the wireless channel quality during transmission. In this paper, we discuss the influence of unknown user density and popularity of content on the cache placement solution at the edge server. Specifically, towards the implementation of the cache placement solution in the practical network, there are two problems needing to be solved. First, the estimation of unknown users preference needs a huge amount of records of users previous requests. Second, the overlapping serving regions among edge servers cause the wrong estimation of users preference, which hinders the individual decision of caching placement. To address the first issue, we propose a learning-based solution to adaptively optimize the cache placement policy. We develop the extended multi-armed bandit (Extended MAB), which combines the generalized global bandit (GGB) and Standard Multi-armed bandit (MAB). For the second problem, a multi-agent Extended MAB-based solution is presented to avoid the mis-estimation of parameters and achieve the decentralized cache placement policy. The proposed solution determines the primary time slot and secondary time slot for each edge server. The proposed strategies are proven to achieve the bounded regret according to the mathematical analysis. Extensive simulations verify the optimality of the proposed strategies when comparing with baselines.
We experimentally demonstrate a novel scheme of power loading based on portfolio theory for millimeter-wave small-cell densification. By exploiting the statistical characteristics of interference, this approach improves the average throughput by 91% and reduces the variance.
Explosive growth of mobile data demand may impose a heavy traffic burden on fronthaul links of cloud-based small cell networks (C-SCNs), which deteriorates users quality of service (QoS) and requires substantial power consumption. This paper proposes
an efficient maximum distance separable (MDS) coded caching framework for a cache-enabled C-SCNs, aiming at reducing long-term power consumption while satisfying users QoS requirements in short-term transmissions. To achieve this goal, the cache resource in small-cell base stations (SBSs) needs to be reasonably updated by taking into account users content preferences, SBS collaboration, and characteristics of wireless links. Specifically, without assuming any prior knowledge of content popularity, we formulate a mixed timescale problem to jointly optimize cache updating, multicast beamformers in fronthaul and edge links, and SBS clustering. Nevertheless, this problem is anti-causal because an optimal cache updating policy depends on future content requests and channel state information. To handle it, by properly leveraging historical observations, we propose a two-stage updating scheme by using Frobenius-Norm penalty and inexact block coordinate descent method. Furthermore, we derive a learning-based design, which can obtain effective tradeoff between accuracy and computational complexity. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed two-stage framework.
Small cell enchantment is emerging as the key technique for wireless network evolution. One challenging problem for small cell enhancement is how to achieve high data rate with as-low-as-possible control and computation overheads. As a solution, we p
ropose a low-complexity distributed optimization framework in this paper. Our solution includes two parts. One is a novel implicit information exchange mechanism that enables channel-aware opportunistic scheduling and resource allocation among links. The other is the sub-gradient based algorithm with a polynomial-time complexity. What is more, for large scale systems, we design an improved distributed algorithm based on insights obtained from the problem structure. This algorithm achieves a close-to-optimal performance with a much lower complexity. Our numerical evaluations validate the analytical results and show the advantage of our algorithms.
We study downlink beamforming in a single-cell network with a multi-antenna base station (BS) serving cache-enabled users. For a given common rate of the files in the system, we first formulate the minimum transmit power with beamforming at the BS as
a non-convex optimization problem. This corresponds to a multiple multicast problem, to which a stationary solution can be efficiently obtained through successive convex approximation (SCA). It is observed that 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 in the system. Therefore, we introduce a low-complexity alternative through time-sharing that limits the number of subfiles that can be received by a user in each time slot. It is shown through numerical simulations that, the reduced-complexity beamforming scheme has minimal performance gap compared to transmitting all the subfiles jointly, and outperforms the state-of-the-art low-complexity scheme at all SNR and rate values with sufficient spatial degrees of freedom, and in the high SNR/high rate regime when the number of spatial degrees of freedom is limited.
