Abstract

We study the problem of broadcasting scalable video coded (SVC) streams in cellular networks, where all user equipments (UEs) require the same video content and cooperate with each other. To take the advantage of channel diversity gains, the base station (BS) uses network coding to generate linear combinations of the video packets for broadcasting in the downlink. Once receiving sufficient number of the combinations, a UE can relay packets to others via device-to-device (D2D) connections. To optimize the downlink and D2D transmission arrangement, we first formulate a mixed integer non-linear programming (MINLP) problem, which becomes difficult to solve when the number of UEs increases. Then we convert the MINLP problem to a quasi-convex optimization problem using a continuous step function, and a primal-dual decomposition approach is used to solve it in a distributed way. Simulation results show that the proposed approach achieves a near-optimal solution.
