Quality-Aware Caching, Computing and Communication Design for Video Delivery in Vehicular Networks
Ting-Yen Kuo, Ming‐Chun Lee, Ta-Sung Lee · 2022
To satisfy the increasing demands of wireless traffic in vehicular networks, how to significantly improve vehicular networks becomes a critical issue. Motivated by the potential benefits of jointly using edge-computing and edge-caching in vehicular networks, this paper considers investigating the quality-aware caching, computing and communication (3C) optimization for video delivery in vehicular networks. By incorporating the quality-awareness with 3C models, we formulate a quality-aware joint 3C optimization problem. Then, by considering the practice that the caches might be pre-determined along with the formulated 3C problem, we obtain the quality-aware joint 2C optimization problem with caching. We propose effective approaches to solve these two problems. Simulation results show that our proposed approaches can outperform the reference schemes significantly.
