Popis: As mobile smart devices become increasingly popular and are equipped with increasingly powerful sensors, they have been pervasively applied in crowdsensing as effective tools to solve large-scale sensing tasks in urban areas. Task requesters can allocate sensing tasks to mobile nodes through a crowdsensing platform, eliminating the cost of deploying and maintaining large numbers of fixed sensors. However, several kinds of crowdsensing tasks (e.g., audio and video transmission) that generate large-scale sensed data may bring high network traffic costs to participants using a 3G/4G network, which may affect their satisfaction. In this paper, we build a data diffusion and transmission paradigm in crowdsensing based on City Public Traffic System (PTS), and thoroughly discuss a paradigm for Multi-Task diffusion and transmission within budget constraints. This paradigm makes full use of the advantages of a bus in PTS to realize the rapid transmission of large-scale sensed data: predictable trajectory, wide coverage area, fast moving speed and long contact duration among passengers. Further, we also propose a new data transmission algorithm called BUI-BA that chooses mobile nodes to transfer data by maximizing the transmission utility increment. The experimental results demonstrate that BUI-BA has better overall performance than widely used Greedy and effSense, achieving a tradeoff between overall transmission utility and transmission redundancy.
