  Growing demand for video services is the main driver for increasing traffic
in wireless cellular data networks. Wireless video distribution schemes have
recently been proposed to offload data via Device-to-Device (D2D)
communications. These offloading schemes increase capacity and reduce
end-to-end delay in cellular networks and help to serve the dramatically
increasing demand for high quality video. In this paper, we propose a new
scheme for video distribution over cellular networks by exploiting full-duplex
(FD) D2D communication in two scenarios; scenario one: two nodes exchange their
desired video files simultaneously with each other, and scenario two: each node
can concurrently transmit to and receive from two different nodes. In the
latter case, an intermediate transceiver can serve one or multiple users' file
requests whilst capturing its desired file from another device in the vicinity.
Analytic and simulation results are used to compare the proposed scheme with
its half-duplex (HD) counterpart under the same transmitter establishment
criteria to show the achievable gain of FD-D2D scheme in video content
delivery, in terms of sum throughput and latency.
