Vinoba.V, Chithra.S.M

Abstract: This paper presents fundamental results in game theory and their application to wireless communications and networking. It provides a foundational understanding of the current research on game theory. The application  of mathematical analysis to wireless sensor networks has met with limited success, due to the complexity of mobility and traffic models, coupled with the dynamic topology and the unpredictability of link quality that characterize such networks. The ability to model individual, independent decision makers whose actions potentially affect all other decision makers’. Game theory is particularly an attractive field to analyze the performance of sensor networks.

Game theory is a field of applied mathematics that describes and analyzes interactive decision situations. It consists of a set of analytical tools that predict the outcome of complex interactions among rational entities, where rationality demands a strict adherence to a strategy based on perceived or measured results. There has been growing interest in adopting game-theoretic methods to model today’s leading communications and networking issues, including power control and resource sharing in wireless and peer-to-peer networks. Also we discussed the challenges and limitations in the application of game theory to the analysis of wireless sensor networks and major game theoretic models.

Keywords: Game Theory, Cooperative game theory, Non-cooperative game theory, Wireless communication and Wireless Sensor Networks.
