Abstract

Nowadays, mobile edge computing (MEC) has become a promising technique to provide mobile devices with intensive computation capability for the applications in the Internet of Things and 5G communications. In a MEC system, a mobile device, who has computation tasks to complete, would like to offload part or all the data for computation to a MEC server, due to the limit of local computation capability. In this paper, we consider a MEC system with one MEC server and multiple mobile devices, who access into the MEC server via frequency division multiple access (FDMA). The energy consumption of all the mobile devices is targeted to minimized via optimizing the computation and communication resources, including the amount of data for offloading, the bandwidth for accessing, the energy budget for offloading data, the time budget for offloading, for each mobile device. An optimization problem is formulated, which is non-convex. We decompose it into two levels. In the lower level, a convex optimization problems is formulated. In the upper level, a one-dimensional variable is to be optimized by bisection search method.
