Abstract

The demand for services that provide current sensing data (data) obtained at a specified location is expected to grow in the future. To realize such services with lower sensor installation and operation costs, we consider the use of a pull-type mobile crowdsensing with reverse auction (pull-type RevAuc) that determines the size of the incentive paid to mobile hosts that provide data. In a pull-type RevAuc, more cellular traffic between a server and mobile hosts can increase the service operation cost. In this paper, we propose a new communication method for the pull-type RevAuc that reduces cellular traffic between a server and mobile hosts by using device-to-device communication. Through simulations, we confirmed that the proposed method can reduce cellular traffic compared to the existing method for the pull-type RevAuc while selecting a successful bidder that can provide data at almost the same location for almost the same reward within almost the same amount of time as in the existing method.
