Abstract

En 中文
Maritime Internet of Things (IoT) with unmanned surface vessels (USVs) faces tight onboard computing and sparse wireless links. Compute-intensive vision and sensing workloads often exceed latency budgets, which undermines timely decisions. In this paper, we propose a novel distributed computation offloading framework for maritime IoT scenarios. By leveraging the limited computational resources of USVs within a device-to-device (D2D)-assisted edge network and the mobility advantages of UAV-assisted edge computing, we design a breadth-first search (BFS)-based distributed computation offloading game. Building upon this, we formulate a global latency minimization problem that jointly optimizes UAV hovering coordinates and arrival times. This problem is solved by decomposing it into subproblems addressed via a joint Alternating Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) and Successive Convex Approximation (SCA) approach, effectively reducing the time between UAV arrivals and hovering coordinates. Extensive simulations verify the effectiveness of our framework, demonstrating up to a 49.6% latency reduction compared with traditional offloading schemes.
