Abstract :
In this paper, we propose a game-theoretical approach to the distributed radio resource control in wireless networks. Inaccurate channel conditions are considered by formulating the problem as noncooperative games of incomplete information, where users are referred to as player. The operating point is the Bayesian Nash equilibrium of the game. We also study the existence and uniqueness of the equilibrium. However, the Bayesian Nash equilibrium is not Pareto efficient. Then we introduce a weight-adjusting index to player´s cost to adjust the equilibrium, which brings Pareto improvements. Numerical results show that the performance gain is significant.
