Home Network Traffic Control Scheme Based on Two-Level Bargaining Game Model

초록/요약 도움말

This article presents a new smart home network (SHN) traffic control scheme to adaptively handle different quality of service (QoS) traffic services. According to their special characteristics, we categorize the SHN traffic services into three classes - class I, II and III data services - to share the limited SHN bandwidth resource. To effectively share the limited resource, we adopt the bridging and iterated egalitarian bargaining solutions, and formulate a two-level cooperative bargaining game. At the over bargaining process, the idea of bridging bargaining solution is used to compromise the conflicting views of real-time and non real-time data services. At the under bargaining process, class I and class II data services share the assigned bandwidth based on the concept of iterated egalitarian bargaining solution. These both processes are implemented to take full advantages of collaborative SHN traffic services. This interactive coordinated paradigm explores the mutual benefits under dynamically changing SHN environments. The most important novelties of our two-level bargaining approach is to compromise diverse QoS requirements while leveraging a reciprocal consensus among different traffic services. In a coordinated manner, we can get a globally desirable solution to challenge the relatively fair-efficient gains. Finally, simulation testbed is constructed and the numerical analysis is conducted to demonstrate the performance improvement of our proposed method.
