商品描述

This book is on mobile networks with the emphasis on mobile data services.

Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) monetize the scarce wireless spectrum resource, generating revenue through the provision of mobile data services to their customers. The traditional mobile data service is a three-part tariff involving a monthly data quota. This kind of service lacks for flexibility seriously, since it rigidly dictates the usage of data based on time, location, and user identity, limiting when, where, and by whom the data can be consumed. The severer market competition has recently forced the MNOs to explore more flexible data services from different dimensions. For instance, the rollover data service enables time flexibility by permitting unused data in the current month to be carried over for usage in the subsequent month. The day-pass data service enables location flexibility by granting users the ability to utilize domestic data while traveling overseas. The data trading service enables user-identity flexibility by creating a marketplace where users can either offload their surplus data or purchase additional data from one another.

This book will delve into the economic issues of flexible mobile data services. The authors leverage game theory to analyze users' optimal behaviour, and design economic mechanisms for MNOs' data service optimization. This book will introduce who ultimately reaps the benefits from flexible mobile data services--whether it will be the mobile users or the MNOs themselves.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本書專注於行動網路,特別是行動數據服務。

行動網路營運商(Mobile Network Operators, MNOs)利用稀缺的無線頻譜資源來獲利,透過向客戶提供行動數據服務來產生收入。傳統的行動數據服務是三部分的收費模式,涉及每月的數據配額。這種服務在靈活性上嚴重不足,因為它根據時間、地點和用戶身份嚴格限制數據的使用,限制了數據的消耗時間、地點和使用者。最近更嚴峻的市場競爭迫使MNOs從不同的維度探索更靈活的數據服務。例如,滾存數據服務允許未使用的數據在當月結束後轉移到下個月使用,從而實現時間上的靈活性。日票數據服務則通過允許用戶在海外旅行時使用國內數據來實現地點上的靈活性。數據交易服務則通過創建一個市場,讓用戶可以轉讓多餘的數據或相互購買額外的數據,實現用戶身份的靈活性。

這本書將深入探討靈活行動數據服務的經濟問題。作者利用博弈論分析用戶的最佳行為,並設計經濟機制以優化MNOs的數據服務。這本書將介紹最終誰能從靈活的行動數據服務中獲益——是行動用戶還是MNOs本身。
