Abstract:
Aiming at the problem that the ground terminals (GTs) often suffer from difficulties in energy harvesting and data processing in remote areas, a resource allocation strategy for layered unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs)-assisted mobile edge computing system is investigated in this paper. According to different functions, the UAVs are deployed in three layers. By using a magnetic coupling resonance wireless power transfer (MCR-WPT) technology, the GTs can obtain sufficient energy from the first layer of UAVs equipped with transmitting coils. The computational tasks of the GTs are divided into popular, private, and non-popular tasks. The popular and private tasks are both offloaded to the second layer of popular tasks UAVs (PT-UAVs), while the non-popular tasks are offloaded to the third layer of non-popular tasks UAV (NPT-UAV). The resource allocation problem is formulated as an optimization problem. The optimization objective is to minimize the system overhead by jointly optimizing the PT-UAVs caching policy, the GTs partial offloading factor, the charging time of the GTs, the trajectory of the NPT-UAV, and the bandwidth and computational resource of the system. The suboptimal solution is derived by introducing a social learning particle swarm optimization (SLPSO) algorithm. Simulation results show that the SLPSO algorithm outperforms other benchmark methods in terms of the system overhead. © 2023 IEEE.
