Abstract:
Edge computing is conducive to reducing service response time and improving service quality by pushing cloud functions to a network's edges. Most existing works in edge computing focus on utility maximization of task offloading on static edges with a single antenna. Besides, trajectory planning of mobile edges, e.g., autonomous aerial vehicles (AAVs) is also rarely discussed. In this paper, we are the first to jointly discuss the deadline-ware task offloading and AAV trajectory planning problem in a multi-input multi-output (MIMO) AAV-aided mobile edge computing system. Due to discrete variables and highly coupling nonconvex constraints, we equivalently convert the original problem into a more solvable form by introducing auxiliary variables. Next, a penalty dual decomposition-based algorithm is developed to achieve a global optimal solution to the problem. Besides, we proposed a profit-based fireworks algorithm in a relatively lower time to reduce the execution time for large-scale networks. Extensive evaluation results reveal that our proposed optimal algorithms could significantly outperform static offloading algorithms and other algorithms by 25% on average.
