Abstract

We consider the communication between a transmitter (user) and a receiver in the presence of a jammer where the jammer, in contrast to the user, has access to local information about jamming fading gain (reflecting distance of the jammer to the receiver) and jamming cost (reflecting its technical characteristics). The problem is modeled as a Bayesian game. Signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) is considered as user’s communication utility. Nash equilibrium as well as Stackelberg equilibrium are derived in closed form and compared.
