Dynamic spectrum supply chain model for cognitive radio networks
Peyman Setoodeh, S. Haykin, Keyvan R. Moghadam · 2012
Built on the theory of supply chain networks, this paper presents a model for the spectrum market, which includes three different tiers of decision makers; legacy owners, spectrum brokers, and secondary users (cognitive radios). Behavior of various decision-makers, the governing equilibrium conditions, and the transient behavior of the network are studied. Prices are determined endogenously in the model.
