We consider the problem of video caching across a set of 5G small-cell base stations (SBS) connected to each other over a high-capacity short-delay back-haul link, and linked to a remote server over a long-delay connection. Even though the…
In the area of full duplex (FD)-enabled small cell networks, limited works have been done on consideration of cache and mobile edge communication (MEC). In this paper, a virtual FD-enabled small cell network with cache and MEC is…
Caches exploit temporal and spatial locality to allow a small memory to provide fast access to data stored in large, slow memory. The temporal aspect of locality is extremely well studied and understood, but the spatial aspect much less so.…
We consider a distributed caching device-to-device (D2D) network in which a user's file of interest is cached as several portions in the storage of other devices in the network. Assuming that the user needs to obtain all these file…
Caching is an efficient way to reduce network traffic congestion during peak hours by storing some content at the users' local caches. For the shared-link network with end-user-caches, Maddah-Ali and Niesen proposed a two-phase coded…
Multimedia content streaming from Internet-based sources emerges as one of the most high demanded services by wireless users. In order to alleviate excessive traffic due to multimedia content transmission, many architectures (e.g., small…
The backhaul traffic is becoming a major concern in wireless and cellular networks (e.g., 4G-LTE and 5G) with the increasing demands for online video streaming. Caching the popular content in the cache memory of the network users (e.g.,…
Due to explosive growth of online video content in mobile wireless networks, in-network caching is becoming increasingly important to improve the end-user experience and reduce the Internet access cost for mobile network operators. However,…

The ever-increasing demand for media streaming together with limited backhaul capacity renders developing efficient file-delivery methods imperative. One such method is femto-caching, which, despite its great potential, imposes several…
This paper studies secure video streaming in cache-enabled small cell networks, where some of the cache-enabled small cell base stations (BSs) helping in video delivery are untrusted. Unfavorably, caching improves the eavesdropping…
Traditional macro-cell networks are experiencing an upsurge of data traffic, and small-cells are deployed to help offload the traffic from macro-cells. Given the massive deployment of small-cells in a macro-cell, the aggregate power…
The performance of cloud-based small cell networks (C-SCNs) relies highly on a capacity-limited fronthaul, which degrade quality of service when it is saturated. Coded caching is a promising approach to addressing these challenges, as it…
