Abstract

In this paper, we propose a framework for the mobile sensor scheduling problem in target location estimation by designing an equilibrium based two-sided market model where the fusion center (FC) is modeled as the consumer and the mobile sensors are modeled as the producers. To accomplish the task, the FC provides incentives to the sensors to motivate them to optimally relocate themselves in a manner that maximizes the information gain for estimating the location of the target. On the other hand, the sensors calculate their own best moving distances that maximize their profits. Price adjustment rules are designed to compute the equilibrium prices and moving distances, so that a stable solution is reached. Simulation experiments show the effectiveness of our model.
