Abstract
In recent years, optimization of the success transmission probability in wireless cache-enabled networks has been studied extensively. However, few works have concerned about the real-time performance of the cache-enabled networks. In this paper, we investigate the performance of the cache-enabled with real-time guarantees by adopting the age of information (AoI) as the metric to characterize the timeliness of the delivered information. We establish a spatial-temporal model by utilizing the stochastic geometry and queuing theory which captures both the temporal traffic dynamics and the interferers' geographic distribution. Under the random caching framework, we achieve the closed-form expression of AoI by adopting the maximum average received power criterion for the user association. Finally, we formulate a convex optimization problem for the minimization of the Peak AoI (PAoI) and…
