The User Participation Incentive Mechanism of Mobile Crowdsensing Network Based on User Threshold

الملخص EN

Mobile crowdsensing (MCS) network means completing large-scale and complex sensing tasks in virtue of the mobile devices of ordinary users.

Therefore, sufficient user participation plays a basic role in MCS.

On the basis of studying and analyzing the strategy of user participation incentive mechanism, this paper proposes the user threshold-based cognition incentive strategy against the shortcomings of existing incentive strategies, such as task processing efficiency and budget control.

The user threshold and the budget of processing subtasks are set at the very beginning.

The platform selects the user set with the lowest threshold, and the best user for processing tasks according to users’ budget.

The incentive cost of the corresponding users is calculated based on the user threshold at last.

In conclusion, through the experiment validation and comparison with the existing user participation incentive mechanism, it was found that the user threshold-based incentive strategy is advantageous in improving the proportion of task completion and reducing the platform’s budget cost.
