Abstract

Computing Power Network (CPN) is emerging as one of the important research interests in beyond 5G (B5G) or 6G. This paper constructs a CPN based on Federated Learning (FL), where all Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) servers are linked to a computing power center via wireless links. Through this FL procedure, each MEC server in CPN can independently train the learning models using localized data, thus preserving data privacy. However, it is challenging to motivate MEC servers to participate in the FL process in an efficient way and difficult to ensure energy efficiency for MEC servers. To address these issues, we first introduce an incentive mechanism using the Stackelberg game framework to motivate MEC servers. Afterwards, we formulate a comprehensive algorithm to jointly optimize the communication resource (wireless bandwidth and transmission power) allocations and the computation resource (computation capacity of MEC servers) allocations while ensuring the local accuracy of the training of each MEC server. The numerical data validates that the proposed incentive mechanism and joint optimization algorithm do improve the energy efficiency and performance of the considered CPN.
