Abstract: Mobile data offloading is a relatively new research hotspot in recent years.In order to solve the growing mobile data required by the user to cellular network operators which brings the problems such as traffic load and network congestion,mobile data offloading was raised to offload cellular network data to the ubiquitous user local opportunity communication.The basic idea is to distribute the data object to only part of subscribers (called seed sources) via the cellular network,and then allow seed sources to propagate the object to other subscribers through opportunistic local communications (e.g.,Bluetooth,Wi-Fi Direct,DSRC,Device-to-Device in LTE) or Wi-Fi AP based. At first,this paper summarized research background,significance and the research progress of data offloading in general.Then focusing on research content and trend of current academic circles at home and abroad,we classified the data offloading into different scheme via the form and technical route,and then summarized the various of schemes.Lastly,we summarized the full text combining reality environment.
