ABSTRACT

The next generation wireless communication system requires multi-tiers hybrid Heterogeneous Networks (HetNets) to provide an efficient bandwidth usage and high speed data throughput. In such environment, the number of users may vary over time in addition to the random profile of their distribution and their requested quality of service (QoS). Indeed, the satisfaction of users in terms of service price and QoS presents a challenge in 5G hybrid HetNets. To deal with this problem, we propose a non-cooperative game theoretical model for resource allocation within 5G hybrid HetNets. The proposed game model allows the combination of different types of transmission networks within a single communication in order to provide the best economic benefit to the user. Indeed, multiple network providers (NPs) present their service offers, and the user, according to his needs may choose several NPs to serve him simultaneously. In this case, each NP can serve multiple users with a fair sharing of bandwidth. Based on the proposed game model, simulation results show that the system becomes more efficient and flexible.
