Abstract
Cognitive radio is a revolutionary wireless communication paradigm in which cognitive users are able to observe, learn, optimize, and intelligently adapt in order to improve spectrum utilization without interfering with traditionally licensed users. In order to make this vision a reality, major technical challenges must be tackled at different levels, such as spectrum sensing, dynamic spectrum access, and exploration & exploitation. Due to their inherently distributed nature, future cognitive radio networks and protocol architectures should be self-organizing and collaborative so as to overcome the above challenges. In this respect, game theory is a powerful and flexible mathematical tool suitable to study how autonomous users can interact and cooperate with each other. This talk investigates the cooperative and competitive relations among individual distributed cognitive users, based on a variety of approaches that can cope with time-varying channel/traffic conditions, hete!
rogeneous user profiles, different QoS requirements, and security. In particular, three categories of cooperative games are studied: canonical coalitional game, coalitional formation game, and coalitional graph game. Examples on applying those game theoretical tools within the area of cognitive radio design will be thoroughly studied.
