    Data Repair in BS-Assisted Distributed Data Caching
    (IEEE, 2020) Kaya, Erdi; Haytaoglu, Elif; Arstan, Suayb S.
    In this paper, centralized and independent repair approaches based on device-to-device communication for the repair of the lost nodes have been investigated in a cellular network where distributed caching is applied whose fault tolerance is provided by erasure codes. The caching mechanisms based on Reed-Solomon codes and minimum bandwidth regenerating codes are adopted. The proposed approaches are analyzed in a simulation environment in terms of base station utilization load during the repair process. Based on the intuitive assumption that the base station is usually more costly than device-to-device communication, the centralized repair approach demonstrates a better performance than the independent repair approaches on the number of symbols retrieved from the base station. On the other hand, the centralized approach has not achieved a dramatic reduction in the number of symbols downloaded from the other devices.
