Summary: | Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) is regarded as a promising technology for the next-generation wireless communication system. Introducing NOMA into the fog radio access networks (F-RANs) is able to provide simultaneous transmissions to multiple users and significantly enhance F-RAN performance. However, due to the increasing number of users and the constraint of caching storage capacity, there exists a tradeoff between NOMA transmission performance and fronthaul saving. In this paper, a hierarchical game framework is presented to solve the joint optimization problem of user access mode selection and content popularity prediction in NOMA based F-RANs. More specifically, the access mode selection problem is formulated as an evolutionary game. The proposals' evolutionary payoff expressions are derived by stochastic geometry tool, and the cost functions are related to the fog access point (F-AP) content placement profile as well as the fronthaul constraint. Moreover, the problem of what contents the F-AP should cache is modeled as a content popularity prediction problem, and based on both local and global user request states, a machine learning algorithm is presented to solve it. Simulation results validate the accuracy of analytical results and demonstrate our proposed algorithms can further improve the performance of NOMA based F-RANs. |
