Fair and Efficient Rate Allocation for Wireless-Powered Machine-Type Communication Networks

Fair and Efficient Rate Allocation for Wireless-Powered Machine-Type Communication Networks

This paper proposes a bargaining game theoretic rate allocation scheme for wireless-powered machine-type communications (MTCs). In the considered body area MTC network (MTCN), a battery-powered user equipment (UE) acting as the MTC gateway (MTCG) is responsible for collecting the information uploade...
