A secure data offloading approach based on lowest energy consumption for multi-UAV wireless networks

Abstract

In order to mitigate the issue of passive eavesdropping from the ground when data is offloaded to the multi-UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) edge computing network, a secure data offloading technique was suggested. This strategy optimized user matching and resource allocation simultaneously, minimizing system energy consumption.The probability of a security interruption was utilized to limit the security performance of the data offload process, taking into account the limitations of system latency, communication resources, and computer resources.The optimization of user transmission power, offload factor, UAV computing resource allocation, and jamming power was achieved by the combined use of block coordinate descent and successive convex approximation algorithm.
