We consider a variant of the coded caching problem where users connect to two types of caches, called private and access caches. The problem setting consists of a server with a library of files and a set of access caches. Each user,…

We investigate the multi-access coded caching problem, which involves $N$ files, $K$ users, and $K$ caches in this paper. Each user can access $L$ adjacent caches in a cyclic manner. We present a coded placement scheme for the case of cache…

This paper presents a new achievable scheme for coded caching systems with $\mathsf{N}$ files, $\mathsf{K}=\mathsf{N}$ users, and cache size $\mathsf{M}=1/(\mathsf{N}-1)$. The scheme employs linear coding during the cache placement phase,…

We study the problem of multi-access coded caching (MACC): a central server has $N$ files, $K$ ($K \leq N$) caches each of which stores $M$ out of the $N$ files, $K$ users each of which demands one out of the $N$ files, and each user…
