[2209.13871] Resource Allocation and Resolution Control in the Metaverse with Mobile Augmented Reality
With the development of blockchain and communication techniques, the
Metaverse is considered as a promising next-generation Internet paradigm, which
enables the connection between reality and the virtual world. The key to
rendering a virtual world is to provide users with immersive experiences and
virtual avatars, which is based on virtual reality (VR) technology and high
data transmission rate. However, current VR devices require intensive
computation and communication, and users suffer from high delay while using
wireless VR devices. To build the connection between reality and the virtual
world with current technologies, mobile augmented reality (MAR) is a feasible
alternative solution due to its cheaper communication and computation cost.
This paper proposes an MAR-based connection model for the Metaverse, and
proposes a communication resources allocation algorithm based on outer
approximation (OA) to achieve the best utility. Simulation results show that
our proposed algorithm is able to provide users with basic MAR services for the
Metaverse, and outperforms the benchmark greedy algorithm.
