A Novel Weighted Clustering Algorithm Supported by a Distributed Architecture for D2D Enabled Content-Centric Networks.

摘要: Next generation cellular systems need efficient content-distribution schemes. Content-sharing via Device-to-Device (D2D) clustered networks has emerged as a popular approach for alleviating the burden on network. In this article, we utilize Content-Centric Networking and Network Virtualization to propose distributed architecture, that supports content delivery. We use clustering at user level content-distribution. A weighted multifactor algorithm is proposed grouping D2D User Equipment (DUEs) sharing common interest. The evaluated in terms of energy efficiency, area spectral throughput. effect number clusters these performance parameters also discussed. been further modified allow tradeoff between fairness other parameters. comprehensive simulation study demonstrates more flexible outperforms several classical state-of-the-art algorithms.
