Economic Approaches And Market Structures For Temporal-Spatial Spectrum Sharing, Feixiang Zhang

LSU Doctoral Dissertations

In wireless communication systems, economic approaches can be applied to spectrum sharing and enhance spectrum utilization.

In this research, we develop a model where geographic information, including licensed areas of primary users (PUs) and locations of secondary users (SUs), plays an important role in the spectrum sharing system. We consider a multi-price policy and the pricing power of noncooperative PUs in multiple geographic areas. Meanwhile, the value assessment of a channel is price-related and the demand from the SUs is price-elastic. By applying an evolutionary procedure, we prove the existence and uniqueness of the optimal payoff for each PU selling …

Spectrum- And Energy-Efficient Radio Resource Allocation For Wireless Communications, Shengjie Guo

LSU Doctoral Dissertations

Wireless communications has been evolved significantly over the last decade. During this period, higher quality of service (QoS) requirements have been proposed to support various services. In addition, due to the increasing number of wireless devices and transmission, the energy consumption of the wireless networks becomes a burden. Therefore, the energy efficiency is considered as important as spectrum efficiency for future wireless communications networks, and spectrum and energy efficiency have become essential research topics in wireless communications. Moreover, due to the exploding of number mobile devices, the limited radio resources have become more and more scarce. With large numbers of …
