Abstract	By using personal mobile devices, participatory sensing provides an alternative to deploying dedicated mobile nodes to perform data acquisition tasks in areas where human carriers are already present. However, this application comes with some unique challenges. In this paper, we study the challenges resulting from social concerns of participants in a participatory sensing application and propose a socially aware auction mechanism to address them. Through simulations, we compare the proposed mechanism to several existing mechanisms. The results demonstrate that, with the right configuration, our proposed mechanism can decrease the cost for the data sinks and decrease the privacy loss and battery usage of participants while preserving their participation.
