Multiple Access Computation Offloading for the K-User Case

When multiple users seek to offload computational tasks to their access point, the nature of the multiple access scheme, and the optimization of its parameters, play a critical role in the system performance. For a system with heterogeneous tasks, we adopt a time-slotted signaling structure in which different numbers of users transmit in each slot, subject to individual power constraints. We consider the problem of optimizing the rates and …
