Therefore, we propose a deep reinforcement learning based caching system to reduce backhaul overload and increase user QoS in local 5G for efficient network resource utilization in eMBB targeted local 5G networks. The proposed system considers replacement policies in the stage of cache allocation, and its performance is compared with existing caching strategies combined with cache allocation algorithm and cache replacement policy. The simulation result shows the proposed system has 20% higher performance in both cache hit ratio and average network latency than conventional systems." }
