摘要
The utilization of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) as aerial mobile edge computing (MEC) servers presents an effective approach for mitigating the computational limitations of intelligent mobile devices. However, the limited battery capacity of UAVs poses a significant challenge in ensuring sustained service provision. To counter this obstacle and enhance energy efficiency, we introduce a partial offloading MEC scheme assisted by layered UAVs (POAL). Our objective is to minimize the total energy consumption of UAVs by jointly optimizing several factors, including wireless channels, transmit power, task partition, computing power, and UAV trajectories. Due to the non-convexity of the problem, we decompose it into three sub-problems and address them iteratively. Firstly, we employ the CVX optimization tool to allocate wireless channels and utilize Lagrangian duality to determine the optimal transmit power. Secondly, leveraging the monotonicity of the optimization objective, we derive the optimal computing power. Lastly, we employ the successive convex approximation (SCA) technique to tackle the trajectory planning sub-problem. Numerical results demonstrate that our proposed algorithm can effectively position UAVs within 15 iterations. Furthermore, our layered scheme significantly reduces overall energy consumption.
