外文摘要：Unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV)as a powerful tool has found its applicability in assisting mo-bile users to deal with computation-intensive and delay-sensitive applications(e.g.,edge computing,high-speed Internet access,and local caching).However,deployment of UAV-aided mobile services(UMS)faces challenges due to the UAV limitation in wireless coverage and energy storage.Aware of such physical limitations,a future UMS system should be intelligent enough to self-plan trajector-ies and best offer computational capabilities to mobile users.There are important issues regarding the UAV-user interaction,UAV-UAV cooperation for sustainable ser-vice provision,and dynamic UMS pricing.These network-ing and resource management issues are largely over-looked in the literature and this article presents intelli-gent solutions for cooperative UMS deployment and oper-ation.Mobile users'locations are generally private in-formation and changing over time.How to learn on-de-mand users'truthful location reporting is important for determining optimal UAV deployment in serving all the users fairly.After addressing the truthful UAV-user inter-action issue via game theory,we further study the UAV network sustainability for UMS provision by minimizing the energy consumption cost during deployment and seek-ing UAV-UAV cooperation.Finally,for profit-maximiz-ing purpose,we analyze the cooperative UAVs'deploy-ment,capacity allocation,and dynamic service pricing.
