Abstract

Abstract : This paper focuses on the joint optimization of the Age of Information (AoI) and Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio- (SINR-) oriented channel access problem under attack in the Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). Firstly, to overcome the uncertain, dynamic, and incomplete information constrains, an active probability model and a controlling channel model are proposed for the sensors and the receiving end, respectively. Secondly, to ensure the AoI and SINR of the data generated by the sensors when transmitted under attack, one utility function based on average AoI and SINR is defined. Then, considering the distributed feature of the channel access process, the joint optimization problem is formulated under the game theory structure. Then, a distributed learning algorithm is proposed to reach the Nash Equilibrium (NE) of the game. Finally, simulation results have verified the correctness and effectiveness of the proposed method.
