Abstract EN
Traffic offloading is considered to be a promising technology in the Unmanned Aerial Vehicles- (UAVs-) assisted cellular networks.
Due to their selfishness property, UAVs may be reluctant to take part in traffic offloading without any incentive.
Moreover, considering the dynamic position of UAVs and the dynamic condition of the transmission channel, it is challenging to design a long-term effective incentive mechanism for multi-UAV networks.
In this work, the dynamic contract incentive approach is studied to attract UAVs to participate in traffic offloading effectively.
The two-stage contract incentive method is introduced under the information symmetric scenario and the information asymmetric scenario.
Considering the sufficient conditions and necessary conditions in the contract design, a sequence optimization algorithm is investigated to acquire the maximum expected utility of the base station.
The simulation experiment shows that the designed two-stage dynamic contract improves the performance of traffic offloading effectively.
