A Game Theoretic Approach for SINR-Constrained Power Control in 3G Cellular CDMA Communication Systems
Mehdi Adibi, Vahid Tabataba Vakili · 2007
In this paper, we formulate the SINR-constrained power control problem in the wideband CDMA cellular system as a game. Using the cooperative theory and Nash bargaining model, we compared it to the non-cooperative game scheme proposed in (S. Koskie and Z. Gajic, 2005). We show that the resulting operating point using Nash bargaining model is fair and Pareto optimal, however, the Nash equilibrium operating point obtained in the non-cooperative game scheme is not in general Pareto optimal.
