Resource Allocation in 5G IoV Architecture Based on SDN and Fog-Cloud Computing

摘要

In the traditional cloud-based Internet of Vehicles (IoV) architecture, it is difficult to guarantee the low latency requirements of the current intelligent transportation system (ITS). As a supplement to cloud computing, fog computing can effectively alleviate the bottlenecks of cloud computing bandwidth and computing resources and improve the quality of service (QoS) of the IoV. However, as a distributed system that operates near users, fog computing has a complicated network structure. In the complex and dynamic IoV environment, to effectively manage these computing resources with different attributes and provide high-quality services, it is necessary to design an efficient architecture and a resource allocation algorithm. Therefore, on the basis of fog-cloud computing and software-defined networking (SDN), a novel 5G IoV architecture is designed. In addition, after fully considering the service requirements of the IoV, a model of four objectives is constructed, and a many-objective optimization algorithm is proposed. The experiment results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms the other state-of-the-art algorithms.
