Congestion Games in Wireless Channels with Multipacket Reception Capability

Part of the book series: Communications in Computer and Information Science ((CCIS,volume 101))

Abstract

A wireless transmission channel with multipacket reception capability is expected to be a common feature of next generation telecommunication systems. Probability of correctly receiving simultaneously transmitted packets at the base station in a given time slot depends on the number of transmitted packets as well as the geographical proximity of the transmitter to the base station. This paper formulates a congestion game with player-specific costs to model the situation, characterizes its Nash equilibrium and analyses the slot allocation at the operating point.
