Research on Multi-Terminal's AC Offloading Scheme and Multi-Server's AC Selection Scheme in IoT.

Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) technology and Simultaneous Wireless Information and Power Transfer (SWIPT) technology are important ones to improve the computing rate and the sustainability of devices in the Internet of things (IoT). However, the system models of most relevant papers only considered multi-terminal, excluding multi-server. Therefore, this paper aims at the scenario of IoT with multi-terminal, multi-server and multi-relay, in which can optimize the computing rate and computing cost by using deep reinforcement learning (DRL) algorithm. Firstly, the formulas of computing rate and computing cost in proposed scenario are derived. Secondly, by introducing the modified Actor-Critic (AC) algorithm and convex optimization algorithm, we get the offloading scheme and time allocation that maximize the computing rate. Finally, the selection scheme of minimizing the computing cost is obtained by AC algorithm. The simulation results verify the theoretical analysis. The algorithm proposed in this paper not only achieves a near-optimal computing rate and computing cost while significantly reducing the program execution delay, but also makes full use of the energy collected by the SWIPT technology to improve energy utilization.
