Abstract
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) can be utilized to provide flexible wireless access in future wireless networks, with larger coverage and higher transmission rate. However, the wireless backhaul for UAVs is usually capacity-limited and congested, and UAVs cannot operate for a long time due to the limited battery life. In this paper, a framework of caching UAV-enabled small-cell networks is proposed, to offload data traffic for the small-cell base stations via caching. In the proposed scheme, the most popular contents are stored at the local caches of UAVs in advance, which can be delivered to mobile users directly from the caches when required. Thus, the congestion of wireless backhaul can be alleviated, the energy consumption can be reduced, and the quality of experience can be improved.
