Fundamental Limits of Caching: Improved Bounds For Small Buffer Users

Information Theory 2015-11-09 v2 math.IT

Abstract

In this work, the peak rate of the caching problem is investigated, under the scenario that the users are with small buffer sizes and the number of users is no less than the amount of files in the server. A novel coded caching strategy is proposed for such a scenario, leading to a lower peak rate compared to recent results in the literature. Furthermore, it is verified that our peak rates coincides with the cut-set bound analytically in an information-theoretic view.
