Shrnutí:We propose a novel MIMO cooperation framework called the cache-induced opportunistic cooperative MIMO (Coop-MIMO) for video streaming in backhaul limited multicell MIMO networks. By caching a portion of the video files, the base stations (BSs) opportunistically employ Coop-MIMO transmission to achieve MIMO cooperation gain without expensive payload backhaul. We derive closed form expressions of various video streaming performance metrics for cache-induced opportunistic Coop-MIMO and investigate the impact of BS level caching and key system parameters on the performance. Specifically, we first obtain a mixed fluid-diffusion limit for the playback buffer queueing system. Then we derive the approximated video streaming performance using the mixed fluid-diffusion limit. Based on the performance analysis, we formulate the joint optimization of cache control and playback buffer management as a stochastic optimization problem. Then we derive a closed form solution for the playback buffer thresholds and develop a stochastic subgradient algorithm to find the optimal cache control. The analysis shows that the video streaming performance improves linearly with the BS cache size BC, the transmit power cost decreases exponentially with BC, and the backhaul cost decreases linearly with BC.
