Abstract
We investigate the problem of achieving utility function optimization for distributed channel selection using game theoretic solutions in opportunistic spectrum access system, where secondary users are spatially located and mutual interference only emerges between neighboring users. In addition, interference graph of spatial position is introduced to measure interference and evaluate the possible opportunities of spectrum access. Based on this we propose an optimization problem of minimizing loss throughput, which is solved by a game theory and an optimal channel selection set is derived. The main work of this paper is to prove that this game is an exact potential game, which has at least one pure strategy Nash equilibrium. Finally simulation results is given to verify the correctness of the theoretical analysis. Especially meanwhile after considering spatial reuse by users’ position, the system throughput is significantly increased, thus the spectrum utilization rate is effectively improved.
