When Mobile Crowd Sensing Meets UAV: Energy-Efficient Task Assignment and Route Planning
Abstract
With the increasing popularity of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), it is foreseen that they will play an important role in broadening the horizon of mobile crowd sensing (MCS). Specifically, UAV-aided MCS allows autonomous data collection anytime and anywhere due to the capability of fast deployment and controllable mobility. However, the on-board battery capacity of UAVs imposes a limitation on their endurance capability and performance. In this paper, we consider the fixed-wing UAV-aided MCS system and investigate the corresponding joint route planning and task assignment problem from an energy efficiency perspective. The formulated joint optimization problem is transformed into a two-sided two-stage matching problem, in which the route planning problem is solved in the first stage based on either dynamic programming or genetic algorithms, and the task assignment problem is addressed in the second stage by exploring the Gale-Shapley algorithm. We provide a comprehensive theoretical analysis, and elaborate the procedures of practical implementation. Numerical results demonstrate that significant performance improvement can be achieved by the proposed scheme.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
