1. A method for resource allocation in a mobile base station, the method comprising:
detecting at least one sensor within a communicable range of the mobile base station;
estimating a communication possibility of the sensor based on a message queue and a remaining battery level of the at least one sensor;
receiving resource allocation from a macro base station based on the communication possibility; and
allocating the allocated resource to the sensor,
wherein the estimating the communication possibility of the sensor based on the message queue and the remaining battery level of the at least one sensor includes:
estimating the communication possibility of the sensor based on whether a packet exists in the message queue and whether the remaining battery level is equal to or greater than a reference value required for transmission of the packet.
