“5W1H” model for incentive mechanism in mobile crowd sensing

Incentive mechanism is one of the most critical issues in the field of mobile crowd sensing, and plays an important role on ensuring the quantity of participants and the coverage rate of perceived data. In this paper, we review the existing research, and propose a "5W1H" model to serve the study on incentive mechanism. Moreover, we conduct analysis on how to design incentive mechanism with a case "Noise Map". Finally, we point out some open issues in this research area.
