ABSTRACT
The rapid increase of edge devices such as smartphones, tablets, and machine type communication (MTC) devices, influences the generation of a massive amount of data traffic. In this regard, mobile networks face the challenges to accommodate the coming of enormous data traffic, especially on the transmitting and processing. In addressing the problem mentioned above, mobile networks always improve the limited network capacity by extending the channel bandwidth or upgrading the systems. However, these solutions incur invertible mobile network expenses. Since the capability of edge devices like smartphones has improved in terms of storage, CPU, and speed, it is advantageous to leverage this. In this paper, we use smartphone capability to enhance resource consumption on mobile networks. To clarify our idea, we use the real data of calling data records collected from the telecommunication company. The proposed approach improves the communication efficiency of mobile networks.
