Mitigating Misbehavior In Wireless Networks: A Game Theoretic Approach, Wenjing Wang
Mitigating Misbehavior In Wireless Networks: A Game Theoretic Approach, Wenjing Wang
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
In a distributed wireless system, multiple network nodes behave cooperatively towards a common goal. Though such assumptions on cooperation are desirable (e.g., controlling the transmit power level, reducing interference for each other, revealing private information, adhering to network policies) for analyzing and modeling, certain nodes belonging to a real-world system have often shown to deviate. These nodes, known as misbehaving nodes, bring more challenges to the design of the wireless network because the unreliable channel makes the actions of the nodes hidden from each other. In this dissertation, we analyze two types of misbehavior, namely, selfish noncooperation and malicious attacking. …
