Aiming at the coexistence of large and small cells in heterogeneous cellular networks, the difference of computing resources between mobile equipment and base stations, and the diversity of service quality demands of users, a resource allocation algorithm based on matching game theory was proposed. We assume that some users have computing needs and can perform MEC offloading or D2D offloading. We define cost performance as the ratio of the data rate per user to its price cost, and resource allocation as the cost performance maximization problem. Considering that the formulation problem is a mixed integer nonlinear problem and it is difficult to obtain the optimal solution, we design an improved Gale-Shapley algorithm based on matching game theory to obtain the feasible solution of the problem. Simulation results show that the proposed multi-MEC server multi-user resource allocation strategy can effectively reduce user service delay and improve system performance in heterogeneous cellular networks.
