Fundamental Limits of Decentralized Caching in Fog-RANs with Wireless Fronthaul [PDF]
This paper aims to characterize the synergy of distributed caching and wireless fronthaul in a fog radio access network (Fog-RAN) where all edge nodes (ENs) and user equipments (UEs) have a local cache and store contents independently at random. The network operates in two phases, a file-splitting based decentralized cache placement phase and a ...

Weighted Max–Min Fairness for C-RAN Multicasting Under Limited Fronthaul Constraints [PDF]
We consider downlink transmission in cloud radio access networks with multiple cochannel multicasting groups served by a group of remote radio heads (RRHs), which receive information from a base band unit via finite-capacity fronthaul links.
