We investigate the potentials of applying the coded caching paradigm in wireless networks. In order to do this, we investigate physical layer schemes for downlink transmission from a multiantenna transmitter to several cache-enabled users. As the baseline scheme, we consider employing coded caching on the top of max-min fair multicasting, which is shown to be far from optimal at high-SNR values. Our first proposed scheme, which is near-optimal in terms of DoF, is the natural extension of multiserver coded caching to Gaussian channels. As we demonstrate, its finite SNR performance is not satisfactory, and thus we propose a new scheme in which the linear combination of messages is implemented... 

In this paper, we consider a multiple-input single-output (MISO) non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) system in the presence of an external single-antenna eavesdropper. We study secure downlink transmission strategies. The challenge is that the multiple antenna configurations make the successive interference cancellation (SIC) condition, which is necessary for applying NOMA schemes, much complex. We formulate the transmission power minimization problem under the quality of service (QoS), SIC and secrecy constraints. In particular, the transmission power minimization problems are formulated under both perfect channel state information (CSI) and the bounded CSI error models. These problems...
