Abstract:
Named Data Networking (NDN) is a prominent fully-fledged Information-Centric Networking (ICN) architecture. NDN can help users to take advantage of multiple access networks in Heterogeneous Wireless Networks (HWNs) more efficiently than IP. In HWNs with NDN, which we call information-centric HWNs, jointly designing forwarding strategy and resource allocation has great potential to improve network performance, which is ignored in the literatures. To fill in this blank, we propose a jointly designed forwarding strategy and resource allocation algorithm called Dynamic Forwarding and Resource Allocation (DFRA) that can adapt variable wireless environment. We also establish the fundamental throughput limitations of information-centric HWNs and prove that DFRA is throughput-optimal. By the cooperation between forwarding strategy and resource allocation, DFRA enables users to utilize wireless communication resource in information-centric HWNs more efficiently. From simulation results, DFRA can provide larger network throughput, faster download speed and better fairness than forwarding strategy that doesn't explicitly cooperate with resource allocation.
