This situation certainly reduces the total video capacity delivered to the MUs. In this paper, we exploit the available spectrum and storage resources of the MUs as well as the wireless broadcast nature of device-to-device (D2D) communications to propose a joint downlink resource sharing and caching helper selection (DRS-CHS) control to maximize the multicast video delivery capacity in dense D2D 5G networks. We assume that the MUs are divided into different clusters in which they can communicate with each other by D2D communications. There are two types of MUs in each cluster including the requesting users (RUs) that request the video and the caching helpers (CHs) that have cached the video. In addition, there are some sharing users (SUs) that can share their downlink resources with the CHs and the RUs for D2D multicast communications. A DRS-CHS optimization problem is then formulated and solved for an optimal control process of how to select a CH in each cluster and how to assign an SU to share its downlink resource with the selected CH such that the total video delivery capacity multicasted from the CHs to the RUs in all clusters is maximized. Simulation results demonstrate the benefits of the proposed DRS-CHS control solution compared to other conventional benchmarks. %U http://ict.jst.udn.vn/index.php/jst/article/view/100 %J Journal of Science and Technology: Issue on Information and Communications Technology %0 Journal Article %R 10.31130/ict-ud.2020.100 %P 12-20%V 18 %N 4.2 %@ 1859-1531 %8 2020-04-30
