Energy Allocation in Future Heterogeneous Networks Based on Game Theory and Auction Theory

Abstract

Energy allocation has become one of the most significant issues in the future dense heterogeneous networks, such as the 5G system. In this paper, we surveyed the literatures about how to make use of game theory and microeconomic theory (e.g., action theory) based approaches to resolve the issue of resource allocation. Several key points have been addressed in the discussion section, from system modelling and the studies in C-RAN and HetNets.
