Abstract:
Coded caching, a recent breakthrough proposed by Maddah-Ali and Niesen, has inspired a rethinking of wireless downlink channels. Although a substantial gain, in particular its scalability with respect to the number of users, is proved theoretically, several limitations hinder its applicability in practical systems. In this talk, we focus on the challenges mainly related to the content delivery phase over the practical downlink channel. To this end, we address the following questions:
- How to make a scalable content delivery based on coded caching?
- How to deal with fairness between users?
- How to deal with online delivery when users requests arrive and served continuously?
We provide solutions to each of these questions.
