In the internet of things application, the data collected by the underlying sensor network is the basis of the upper decision and the foundation of all applications. If the collected data itself is problematic and untrustworthy, this will make the upper level of data protection and application a castle in the air. In order to solve the problem of untrustworthy data, a trustworthy data collection scheme based on mobile edge nodes is proposed. Through the evaluation of the node, the trust value of the node is used for path selection, and the mobile edge node is used as a mobile element to access the trustworthy cluster head node, thereby achieving efficient and reliable data collection. Theoretical analysis and extensive simulation experiments are carried out on the proposed trustworthy data collection algorithm based on utility value (UTDC). The experimental results show that the proposed trustworthy data collection algorithm based on utility value can avoid untrustworthy nodes, effectively reduce network delay and prolong the life cycle of the network.
