Motivation & Challenges(3)

Too many devices coexist in the same area

and compete for radio spectrum – (-) very limited resource

The problem: (-) Too much interference

The challenge: (How) Can we control it?

On the Interference Mitigation in Wireless Networks Through…

Power control (PC): How to choose the transmission power to achieve a Quality of Service (QoS) target

Some challenges for a successful power control algorithm [1]

Power Control Using Game Theory

We focus on scenarios where nodes have different QoS targets and (at least some of) them are autonomous (e.g., APs)

We need distributed power control schemes

Competition for resources among players =(non-cooperative) game theory Key Issues/Our Roadmap: Has the game a Nash Equilibrium (NE)? How can we find it? Is it unique? If not, which to choose? Is it (Pareto) efficient?7

Non-Cooperative Power Control in Small Cell Networks [2]

low-power devices that operate in licensed spectrum

More devices…more interference!

Two-tier small cell network Our work: Study efficient

coexistence with GT

Power Control & Bargaining for Wireless Providers Revenue Improvement

Both Blue and Gold providers transmit at Pmax and earn X and Y €

Our work: Can we do it better? Blue makes a ‘take it or leave it’

offer to the Gold– “I give you E € to reduce your

power t times”– X’-E>X

Gold accepts iff Y’+E>Y Win-win scenario

Power Control Using Bargaining in Wireless Devices (1) [3]

Trunc(ated) Power Control [Zander, TVT ’92]

(-) Unfair for this node – no opportunity to achieve its target More importantly: how to oblige an autonomous entity to power

off?

I achieved my QoS target

I am 40% below my

QoS target

I am 20% below my

QoS target

I am 15% below my

QoS target

Power Control Using Bargaining in Wireless Devices (2)

• We cannot dictate to an AP to power off/reduce its power!

Our work: Unsatisfied links negotiate in pairs. Each one uses part of its budget to make an offer to the other

I achieved my QoS target

I am 40% below my

QoS target

I am 20% below my

QoS target

I am 15% below my

QoS target

I offer you 100 credits if you reduce your power

20%

OK! No thanks!

Channel Access in Device-to-Device (D2D) Communication [4]

More devices…more interference Our work: Channel access in D2D scenarios which

device should transmit/receive data when Devices decide autonomously using game theory12
