Caching in heterogeneous satellite networks with fountain codes

Abstract: In this paper we investigate the performance of caching schemes based on fountain codes in a heterogeneous satellite network. We consider multiple cache-aided hubs which are connected to a geostationary satellite through backhaul links. With the aim of reducing the average number of transmissions over the satellite backhaul link, we propose the use of a caching scheme based on fountain codes. We derive a simple analytical expression of the average backhaul transmission rate and provide a tight upper bound on i… Show more

“…MDS caching schemes have been studied in wireless networks to minimize the expected download time [3] or to reduce the amount of data to be sent [4]. Recently, practical caching schemes based on linear random codes in [5] and based on LT codes in [6] have also been proposed.…”

“…In this case, user terminals are typically not equipped with direct satellite connectivity, and the intermediate tier is responsible to forward content from one end to the other. In this context, only few works have investigated the performance of caching schemes [9], and the outage behaviour remains unexplored. Notably, new trade-offs arise, as a proper dimensioning of the satellite link capacity and cache size at ground relays becomes crucial in determining the quality of experience at the end-users.…”
