Adapt or Wait: Quality Adaptation for Cache-aided Channels

Published 3 Mar 2024 in cs.IT and math.IT | (2403.01558v1)

Abstract: This work focuses on quality adaptation as a means to counter the effects of channel degradation in wireless, cache-aided channels. We design a delivery scheme which combines coded caching, superposition coding, and scalable source coding, while keeping the caching scheme oblivious to channel qualities. By properly adjusting the quality at the degraded users we are able to satisfy all demands in a time-efficient manner. In addition, superposition coding allows us to serve high-rate users with high content quality without subjecting them to a delay penalty caused by users with lower rate channels. We design a communication framework that covers all possible channel rate and quality configurations and we further provide algorithms that can optimise the served quality. An interesting outcome of this work is that a modest quality reduction at the degraded users can counter the effects of significant channel degradation. For example, in a 100-user system with normalized cache size 1/10 at each user, if 10 users experience channel degradation of 60% compared to the rate of the non-degraded users, we show that our transmission strategy leads to a 85% quality at the degraded users and perfect quality at the non-degraded users.
