A Minimax Game of Power Control in a Wireless Network under Incomplete Information

نویسنده

چکیده

The purpose of this paper is to study optimal transmit power control and capacity of a wireless multimedia network, where there is incomplete information about the link gain coefficients. Previously, Perron-Frobenius theory has been applied to the study of optimal power control under complete information about the link gain matrix and the interference matrix. This paper derives a characterization of optimal power vector and capacity in terms of an incomplete-information-matrix-game against nature choosing the elements of the link gain and interference matrices. A game theoretical rationale for not using power control is given. This work was supported by ONR under contract number N000014-92-3-1375 and by the Center for Discrete Mathematics and Theoretical Computer Science (DIMACS) which was funded by the NSF under contract STC-91-1999

Modeling Cooperation between Nodes in Wireless Networks by APD Game

Cooperation is the foundation of many protocols in wireless networks. Without cooperation, the performance of a network significantly decreases. Hence, all nodes in traditional networks are required to cooperate with each other. In this paper, instead of traditional networks, a network of rational and autonomous nodes is considered, which means that each node itself can decide whe...

A JOINT DUTY CYCLE SCHEDULING AND ENERGY AWARE ROUTING APPROACH BASED ON EVOLUTIONARY GAME FOR WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKS

Network throughput and energy conservation are two conflicting important performance metrics for wireless sensor networks. Since these two objectives are in conflict with each other, it is difficult to achieve them simultaneously. In this paper, a joint duty cycle scheduling and energy aware routing approach is proposed based on evolutionary game theory which is called DREG. Making a trade-off ...

A Non-Cooperative Game Theoretical Approach For Power Control In Virtual MIMO Wireless Sensor Network

Power management is one of the vital issue in wireless sensor networks, where the lifetime of the network relies on battery powered nodes. Transmitting at high power reduces the lifetime of both the nodes and the network. One efficient way of power management is to control the power at which the nodes transmit. In this paper, a virtual multiple input multiple output wireless sensor network (VMI...
