Abstract
In this paper, we investigate maximum distance separable (MDS) codes based group coded caching in fog radio access networks (F-RANs). The goal is to minimize the average fronthaul rate under nonuniform file popularity. Firstly, an MDS codes and file grouping based coded placement scheme is proposed to provide coded packets and allocate more cache to the most popular files simultaneously. Next, a fog access point (F-AP) grouping based coded delivery scheme is proposed to meet the requests for files from different groups. Furthermore, a closed-form expression of the average fronthaul rate is derived. Finally, the parameters related to the proposed coded caching scheme are optimized to fully utilize the gains brought by MDS codes and file grouping. Simulation results show that our proposed scheme obtains significant performance improvement over several existing caching schemes in terms of fronthaul rate reduction.
