Abstract

In this paper, we address the pricing problem in open-access femtocell networks. We use economic and game theoretic approaches such as market equilibrium and non-cooperative game to propose novel pricing schemes. In our proposed solutions, the per unit price of spectrum can be determined dynamically and mobile service providers can gain more revenue than the fixed pricing scheme. Furthermore, in our solutions, femtocell owners have more incentives and satisfaction to justify their participation in open-access use.
