Abstract EN
An efficient data collection scheme plays an important role for the real-time intelligent monitoring in many machine-to-machine (M2M) networks.
In this paper, a distributed joint cluster formation and resource allocation scheme for data collection in cluster-based M2M networks is proposed.
Specifically, in order to utilize the advantages of cooperation, we first propose a hierarchical transmission model which contains two communication phases.
In the first phase, the intracluster information sharing is carried out by all the nodes within the same cluster.
Then these nodes transmit the total information to the BS cooperatively with virtual-MIMO (VMIMO) protocol in the second phase.
To grasp the properties and advantages of this cooperative transmission strategy, the theoretical analysis results are provided.
The key issue in this system is to form the clusters and allocate resources efficiently.
Since the optimization problem on this issue is an NP-hard problem, a feasible joint scheme for the cluster formation and resource allocation is proposed in this paper, which is carried out via coalition formation game with a distributed algorithm.
This scheme can reduce the complexity while keeping an attractive performance.
Simulation results show the properties of the proposed scheme and its advantages when comparing with the noncooperative scheme for the data collection in a practical scenario.
