A New Theoretical Evaluation Framework for Satisfaction Equilibria in Wireless Networks (1806.01905v1)

Published 5 Jun 2018 in cs.GT, cs.IT, cs.NI, and math.IT

Abstract: In this paper, a theoretical evaluation framework regarding the \textit{Satisfaction Equilibrium (SE)} in wireless communication networks is introduced and examined. To study these equilibria operation points, we coin some new concepts, namely the \textit{Valued Satisfaction Equilibrium}, the \textit{Price of Efficiency} and the \textit{Max Price of Satisfaction}, which can be used for measuring the efficiency of the obtained equilibria solutions. The aforementioned framework is analyzed and evaluated in a wireless communication environment under the presence of the Gaussian Interference channel (GIC). Within this setting, a non-cooperative game among the users is studied, where users aim in a selfish manner to meet their Quality of Service (QoS) prerequisite. However instead of maximizing the QoS which is generally energy costly, we evangelize that better energy-efficiency is achieved by targeting satisfactory QoS levels only. The sufficient and necessary conditions that lead to the \textit{Satisfaction Equilibrium} are provided for the two-user case and the \textit{Efficient Satisfaction Equilibrium (ESE)} is determined, where the users satisfy their QoS constraints with the lowest possible cost. Moreover, specific measures for evaluating the efficiency of various satisfaction equilibria, in a formal and quantitative manner, expressing the tradeoff with respect to the achieved utility or a given objective function and corresponding cost, are defined and analyzed.
