description | The fifth-generation communication technology (5G) and information-centric networks (ICNs) are acquiring more and more attention. Cache plays a significant part in the 5G-ICN architecture that the industry has suggested. 5G mobile terminals switch between different base stations quickly, creating a significant amount of traffic and a significant amount of network latency. This brings great challenges to 5G-ICN mobile cache. It appears urgent to improve the cache placement strategy. This paper suggests a hybrid caching strategy called time segmentation-based hybrid caching (TSBC) strategy, based on the 5G-ICN bearer network infrastructure. A base station’s access frequency can change throughout the course of the day due to the “tidal phenomena” of mobile networks. To distinguish the access frequency, we split each day into periods of high and low liquidity. To maintain the diversity of cache copies during periods of high liquidity, we replace the path’s least-used cache copy. We determine the cache value of each node in the path and make caching decisions during periods of low liquidity to make sure users can access the content they are most interested in quickly. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed strategy has a positive impact on both latency and the cache hit ratio. |
