Abstract:

To meet the ultra-low latency and ultra-high reliability requirements of users in the future mobile Internet, the wireless caching technology was combined with Cell-Free massive MIMO systems.The caching model was designed based on AP cooperative caching and regional popularity evaluation.The transmission delay expression involving AP clustering, cooperative caching, and regional popularity was derived, and the content placement problem was expressed as total content transmission delay minimization.Through the demonstration of the NP-hard and submodular monotony of the optimization problem, the greedy algorithm-based optimization strategy was proposed.Simulation results show that the proposed strategy can effectively reduce the content transmission delay and improve the cache hit rate.

Key words: Cell-Free massive MIMO system, caching placement, cooperative caching, content transmission delay
