Abstract(in English) As video viewing on mobile terminals becomes more common, there is concern that the backhaul traffic load on cellular networks (CN) will increase dramatically. To reduce the backhaul load, mobile edge computing, which distributes video content from a cache at the base station, has been attracting attention, but another effective method to further reduce the load is to cache the content at the mobile terminal and distribute it via D2D(device-to-device)communication. However, since the cache capacity of the MT is limited, it is effective to preferentially cache content that is expected to be in high demand along the MT's route of travel. Therefore, we proposed content demand estimation using deep learning to D2D cache delivery. We proposed a method to select contents to be cached on MTs by estimating contents that were likely to be demanded by other MTs on the travel route using a long-short term memory (LSTM) neural network, which was one of the algorithms of deep learning. First, we generated time-series data based on the number of keyword searches (number of viewings) for 10 well-known movie titles to confirm the effectiveness of the demand estimation part of the proposed method and the generality of the learning model. Next, a cache was created by making delivery requests based on the pre-movement demand distribution using the predicted values, and the hit rate with the content in the cache was calculated when delivery requests were made based on the post-movement demand distribution. Then, we compared the total number of requests per content measured and predicted for California (CA) and New York (NY) in the U.S. with the cache hit rate of LRU and the proposed method, and we confirmed that high-demand content can be predicted at the destination where the MT moved. In this paper, to reflect more realistic environment, the cache hit rate is evaluated with and without considering the popularity bias of the content used in the simulation, and when the number of content is increased. The effectiveness of the proposed method is confirmed.
