Abstract

In this paper, we consider the problem of resource allocation among two competing users sharing a binary symmetric broadcast channel. We model the interaction between autonomous selfish users in the resource allocation and analyze their strategic behavior in manipulating the allocation outcome. We analytically show that users will improve their performance (i.e. gain higher allocated rates) if they have more information about the strategy of the competing user.
