    We formulate and solve the energy minimization problem for a clustered device-to-device (D2D) network with cache-enabled mobile devices. Devices are distributed according to a Poisson cluster process (PCP) and are assumed to have a surplus memory which is exploited to proactively cache files from a library. Devices can retrieve the requested files from their caches, from neighboring devices in their proximity (cluster), or from the base station as a last resort. We minimize the energy consumption of the proposed network under a random probabilistic caching scheme, where files are independently cached according to a specific probability distribution. A closed form expression for the D2D coverage probability is obtained. The energy consumption problem is then formulated as a function of the caching distribution, and the optimal probabilistic caching distribution is obtained. Results reveal that the proposed caching distribution reduces energy consumption up to 33% as compared to caching popular files scheme

    The concept of edge caching provision in emerging 5G and beyond mobile networks is a promising method to deal both with the traffic congestion problem in the core network as well as reducing latency to access popular content. In that respect end user demand for popular content can be satisfied by proactively caching it at the network edge, i.e, at close proximity to the users. In addition to model based caching schemes learning-based edge caching optimizations has recently attracted significant attention and the aim hereafter is to capture these recent advances for both model based and data driven techniques in the area of proactive caching. This paper summarizes the utilization of deep learning for data caching in edge network. We first outline the typical research topics in content caching and formulate a taxonomy based on network hierarchical structure. Then, a number of key types of deep learning algorithms are presented, ranging from supervised learning to unsupervised learning as well as reinforcement learning. Furthermore, a comparison of state-of-the-art literature is provided from the aspects of caching topics and deep learning methods. Finally, we discuss research challenges and future directions of applying deep learning for cachin
