多无人机协同移动边缘计算(UAV-MEC)系统在动态不确定环境下,面临轨迹规划、任务卸载和资源分配的协调难题,且需保障服务质量(QoS)。现有方法存在可扩展性差、收敛慢、知识共享低效等问题,尤其在大规模物联网设备部署且有严格时限要求时表现不佳。本文提出AirFed,一种新型联邦图增强的多智能体强化学习框架,包含三项创新:首先,设计双层动态图注意力网络(GAT),显式建模无人机与物联网设备间的时空依赖关系,捕捉服务关联与协作交互;其次,提出双演员单评论家架构,联合优化连续轨迹控制与离散任务卸载决策;第三,设计基于信誉的去中心化联邦学习机制,结合梯度敏感自适应量化,实现异构无人机间高效稳健的知识共享。大量实验表明,AirFed相比现有最优方法降低42.9%加权代价,任务截止时间满足率超99%,物联网设备覆盖率达94.2%,通信开销减少54.5%。可扩展性分析证实其在不同无人机数量、物联网设备密度及系统规模下均保持优异性能,验证了其在大规模无人机-MEC部署中的实用性。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Multiple Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) cooperative Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) systems face critical challenges in coordinating trajectory planning, task offloading, and resource allocation while ensuring Quality of Service (QoS) under dynamic and uncertain environments. Existing approaches suffer from limited scalability, slow convergence, and inefficient knowledge sharing among UAVs, particularly when handling large-scale IoT device deployments with stringent deadline constraints. This paper proposes AirFed, a novel federated graph-enhanced multi-agent reinforcement learning framework that addresses these challenges through three key innovations. First, we design dual-layer dynamic Graph Attention Networks (GATs) that explicitly model spatial-temporal dependencies among UAVs and IoT devices, capturing both service relationships and collaborative interactions within the network topology. Second, we develop a dual-Actor single-Critic architecture that jointly optimizes continuous trajectory control and discrete task offloading decisions. Third, we propose a reputation-based decentralized federated learning mechanism with gradient-sensitive adaptive quantization, enabling efficient and robust knowledge sharing across heterogeneous UAVs. Extensive experiments demonstrate that AirFed achieves 42.9% reduction in weighted cost compared to state-of-the-art baselines, attains over 99% deadline satisfaction and 94.2% IoT device coverage rate, and reduces communication overhead by 54.5%. Scalability analysis confirms robust performance across varying UAV numbers, IoT device densities, and system scales, validating AirFed's practical applicability for large-scale UAV-MEC deployments.
