  • Abstract
    We consider a system where one service provider (SP) allocates spectrum to users subscribed to his network. The SP charges a two part tariff from the users comprising of a fixed subscription price and price per unit spectrum used. We formulate the spectrum allocation problem from the SP profit maximization framework and calculate the resulting expressions for prices and spectrum allocated for different user utilities and SP power allocation strategies.
