On the Role of Game Theory in the Analysis of Software Radio Networks
Rob Gilles · Research Portal (Queen's University Belfast) · 2002
The development of software radio technology facilitates the adoption of the adaptive modulation schemes that have recently been proposed in literature which promise significant performance improvements over a link. However, alterations to one link’s waveform will alter the interference seen by the other links in the network, which will in turn affect their adaptation schemes. The dynamic and interdependent nature of this network makes analysis and management of such a network difficult to perform. As part of this paper we propose a new approach, based on the theory of potential games for analyzing and managing a wide variety of adaptive networks.
