Abstract

We study a content delivery problem in the context of a K-user erasure broadcast channel such that a content providing server wishes to deliver requested files to users, each equipped with a cache of a finite memory. Assuming that the transmitter has state feedback and user caches can be filled during off-peak hours reliably by decentralized cache placement, we characterize the achievable rate region as a function of the memory sizes and the erasure probabilities. The proposed delivery scheme, based on the broadcasting scheme proposed by Wang and Gatzianas et al., exploits the receiver side information established during the placement phase. Our results can be extended to centralized cache placement as well as multi-antenna broadcast channels with state feedback.
