Modeling a Jamming Game for Wireless Networks

We consider jamming in wireless networks in the framework of zero-sum games with linearized Shannon capacity utility function. The base station has to distribute the power fairly among the users in the presence of a jammer. The jammer in turn tries to distribute its power among the channels to produ...

Summary:We consider jamming in wireless networks in the framework of zero-sum games with linearized Shannon capacity utility function. The base station has to distribute the power fairly among the users in the presence of a jammer. The jammer in turn tries to distribute its power among the channels to produce as much harm as possible. This game can also be viewed as a minimax problem against the nature. We show that the game has the unique equilibrium and investigate its properties and also we developed an efficient algorithm which allows to find the optimal strategies in finite number of steps.
