Game Theory for Wireless Communications and Networking (Haedcover)

Used to explain complicated economic behavior for decades, game theory is quickly becoming a tool of choice for those serious about optimizing next generation wireless systems. Illustrating how game theory can effectively address a wide range of issues that until now remained unresolved, Game Theory for Wireless Communications and Networking provides a systematic introduction to the application of this powerful and dynamic tool.

This comprehensive technical guide explains game theory basics, architectures, protocols, security, models, open research issues, and cutting-edge advances and applications. It describes how to employ game theory in infrastructure-based wireless networks and multihop networks to reduce power consumption—while improving system capacity, decreasing packet loss, and enhancing network resilience. Providing for complete cross-referencing, the text is organized into four parts:

 

1. Fundamentals—introduces the fundamental issues and solutions in applying different games in different wireless domains, including wireless sensor networks, vehicular networks, and OFDM-based wireless systems
2. Power Control Games—considers issues and solutions in power control games
3. Economic Approaches—reviews applications of different economic approaches, including bargaining and auction-based approaches
4. Resource Management—explores how to use the game theoretic approach to address radio resource management issues

 

The book explains how to apply the game theoretic model to address specific issues, including resource allocation, congestion control, attacks, routing, energy management, packet forwarding, and MAC. Facilitating quick and easy reference to related optimization and algorithm methodologies, it supplies you with the background and tools required to use game theory to drive the improvement and development of next generation wireless systems.

數十年來，博弈論一直被用來解釋複雜的經濟行為，現在它迅速成為那些嚴肅地優化下一代無線系統的人選擇的工具。《無線通信和網絡的博弈論》展示了博弈論如何有效地解決一系列直到現在仍未解決的問題，並系統地介紹了這個強大而動態的工具的應用。

這本全面的技術指南解釋了博弈論的基礎知識、架構、協議、安全性、模型、開放性研究問題以及尖端進展和應用。它描述了如何在基礎設施型無線網絡和多跳網絡中應用博弈論來降低功耗，同時提高系統容量，減少丟包率和增強網絡的韌性。為了完整的交叉參考，本文分為四個部分：

1. 基礎知識 - 介紹在不同無線領域應用不同遊戲時的基本問題和解決方案，包括無線感測網絡、車載網絡和基於OFDM的無線系統。
2. 功率控制遊戲 - 考慮功率控制遊戲中的問題和解決方案。
3. 經濟方法 - 回顧了不同經濟方法的應用，包括談判和拍賣方法。
4. 資源管理 - 探討如何使用博弈論方法來解決無線資源管理問題。

本書解釋了如何應用博弈論模型來解決特定問題，包括資源分配、擁塞控制、攻擊、路由、能源管理、封包轉發和媒體訪問控制。它提供了背景和工具，使您能夠使用博弈論來推動下一代無線系統的改進和發展，並方便快速參考相關的優化和算法方法。
