The transmission of a large amount of video and picture content brings more challenges to wireless communication networks. Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-aided small cells with active content caching deployed on cellular networks are recognized as a promising way to alleviate wireless backhaul and support flexible coverage. However, a UAV cannot operate for a long time due to limited battery life, and its caching capacity is also limited. For this, a multi-UAV content-caching strategy and cooperative, complementary content transmission among UAVs are jointly studied in this paper. Firstly, a user-clustering-based caching strategy is designed, where user clustering is based on user similarity, concurrently taking into consideration similarities in content preference and location. Then, cooperative, complementary content transmission between multiple UAVs is modeled as a coalition formation game (CFG) to maximize the utility of the whole network. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms is demonstrated through numerical simulations. |
