Abstract :
A flexible structure for a future wireless system will allow users with different applications, such as speech, file transfers and video, to share the same radio channel. In this paper a versatile concept for dividing scarce resources is presented. Users submit a specification of their resource need and acceptable QoS levels, along with a price they are prepared to pay. The network calculates bids as a function of these specifications and resource costs. Continued service is awarded to the set of users with the highest bids. Costs for decreasing or discontinuing service (network goodwill loss) can easily be accounted for
