Joint Cache Placement and Cooperative Multicast Beamforming in Integrated Satellite-Terrestrial Networks
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper studies joint cache placement and cooperative multicast beamforming to provide content-centric data services for mobile users in the integrated satellite-terrestrial network (ISTN). Specifically, in the ISTN, users requesting the same content are arranged into a multicast group and served by the cache-enabled base stations (BSs) and low earth orbit (LEO) satellite via cooperative beamforming. To maximize the network utility that takes network throughput and backhaul traffic into consideration, the cache placement, LEO satellite and BS clustering, and multicast beamforming are jointly designed and formulated as a two-timescale optimization problem. However, the original problem is anti-causal since the cache placement strategy and content delivery policy are coupled in different timescales. By utilizing historical information, we propose a two-step scheme to decompose the problem into a short-term content delivery subproblem and a long-term cache placement subproblem. As the former subproblem is nonconvex with mixed-integer variables and coupling constraints, we transform it into an equivalent problem and propose a penalty concave-convex procedure based algorithm to solve it. To address the latter subproblem, a centralized iterative algorithm and a distributed alternating algorithm with low complexity are developed, respectively. Simulation results validate that the proposed schemes can effectively enhance the network throughput and reduce the backhaul traffic compared with benchmark scheme.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
