초록

본 논문에서는 home 소형셀 대비 넓은 커버리지를 갖고 많은 사용자를 서비스 하는 enterprise/urban 소형셀 환경에서 적용할 수 있는 사용자 컨텍스트 기반 캐시 알고리즘을 제안한다. 소형셀 캐시 기법은 소형셀 사용자의 웹 트래픽을 소형셀 내부에 위치한 저장 공간에 저장하는 방법으로 코어망 트래픽을 감소시키는 효과가 있다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 알고리즘과 달리 Mobile Edge Computing(MEC)의 개념을 적용하여 소형셀 내부가 아닌 edge server에 사용자 트래픽을 캐시하며 사용자 특성을 반영하기 위해 사용자를 그룹화한다. 또한, 그룹별 저장 공간의 크기를 달리하고, 캐시 업데이트 주기를 캐시 적중률에 따라 변경하여 코어망으로부터 제공받는 트래픽을 감소하고자 하였다. 성능 분석 결과 기존 알고리즘 대비 캐시 적중률 측면에서 약 11%, cache efficiency 측면에서 약 5.5%의 성능 향상을 확인할 수 있었다.

In this paper, we propose a cache algorithm based on user's context for enterprise/urban smallcell environments. The smallcell caching method is to store mobile users' data traffic at a storage which is equipped in smallcell base station and it has an effect of reducing core networks traffic volume. In our algorithm, contrary to existing smallcell cache algorithms, the cache storage is equipped in a edge server by using a concept of the Mobile Edge Computing. In order to reflect user's characteristics, the edge server classifies users into several groups based on user's context. Also the edge server changes the storage size and the cache replacement frequency of each group to improve the cache efficiency. As the result of performance evaluation, the proposed algorithm can improve the cache hit ratio by about 11% and cache efficiency by about 5.5% compared to the existing cache algorithm.
