The application of mathematical analysis to wireless networks has
met with limited success, due to the complexity of mobility and
traffic models, coupled with the dynamic topology and the
unpredictability of link quality that characterize such networks.
The ability to model individual, independent decision makers whose
actions potentially affect all other decision makers makes game
theory particularly attractive to analyze the performance of ad hoc
networks. Game theory is a field of applied mathematics that
describes and analyzes interactive decision situations. It consists
of a set of analytical tools that predict the outcome of complex
interactions among rational entities, where rationality demands a
strict adherence to a strategy based on perceived or measured
results. In the early to mid-1990's, game theory was applied to
networking problems including flow control, congestion control,
routing and pricing of Internet services. More recently, there has
been growing interest in adopting game-theoretic methods to model
today's leading communications and networking issues, including
power control and resource sharing in wireless and peer-to-peer
networks. This work presents fundamental results in game theory and
their application to wireless communications and networking. We
discuss normal-form, repeated, and Markov games with examples
selected from the literature. We also describe ways in which
learning can be modeled in game theory, with direct applications to
the emerging field of cognitive radio. Finally, we discuss
challenges and limitations in the application of game theory to the
analysis of wireless systems. We do not assume familiarity with
game theory. We introduce major game theoretic models and discuss
applications of game theory including medium access, routing,
energy-efficient protocols, and others. We seek to provide the
reader with a foundational understanding of the current research on
game theory applied to wireless communications and networking.
