Abstract Evolution of cellular networks into dynamic, dense, and heterogeneous networks have introduced new challenges for cell resource optimization, especially in the imbalanced traffic load regions. Numerous load balancing schemes have been proposed to tackle this issue; however, they operate in a reactive manner that confines their ability to meet the top‐notch quality of experience demands. To address this challenge, we propose a novel proactive load balancing scheme. Our framework learns users' mobility and demands statistics jointly to proactively cache future contents during their stay at lightly loaded cells, which results in quality of experience maximization and load minimization. System level simulations are performed and compared with the state‐of‐the‐art reactive schemes.
