Power Control in Wireless Broadcast Networks using Game Theory
نویسندگان
چکیده
Broadcast is an important application in wireless networks, e.g. for video streaming, file distribution, or event notification. Wireless nodes are battery powered, their network lifetime depends on the energy consumption. Thus, energy efficiency is an important metric when designing broadcast protocols in infrastructureless and all-wireless networks. In this paper, we apply game theory to solve the minimum energy broadcast tree construction problem using power control by formulating the problem into a non-cooperative game. Our game-based broadcast protocols are decentralized in nature. We demonstrate that our game-based algorithms provide better performance than other known decentralized algorithms and the performance loss of our approach is small compared to a centralized solution.

Broadcast Routing in Wireless Ad-Hoc Networks: A Particle Swarm optimization Approach
While routing in multi-hop packet radio networks (static Ad-hoc wireless networks), it is crucial to minimize power consumption since nodes are powered by batteries of limited capacity and it is expensive to recharge the device. This paper studies the problem of broadcast routing in radio networks. Given a network with an identified source node, any broadcast routing is considered as a directed...

متن کاملModeling 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...

متن کاملA 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 ...
