“…The DMP features an auction-based network selection mechanism, which is based on a procurement firstprice sealed-bid auction. Following the notation of Konka et al [6], there are n = |N | network operators (NOs) who bid for the right to sell their product to the subscriber. Each NO is characterised by utility function…”

“…In this research, we advocate the use of the Digital Marketplace (DMP). DMP is a market-based framework where network operators compete in a procurement auction for the right to transport the subscriber's requested service over their infrastructure [5], [6]. As with any market-based framework, it is important to analyse the selling mechanism from the economic perspective.…”

“…As with any market-based framework, it is important to analyse the selling mechanism from the economic perspective. In [6]- [8], Konka et al present the results of such an analysis. They characterise the equilibrium, and propose numerical methods for the numerical approximation of the equilibrium, which is otherwise analytically intractable.…”

Approximating Equilibrium in the Digital MarketplaceJakub Konka, Craig Michie, Ivan Andonovic, and Robert Atkinson Centre for Intelligent Dynamic Communications University of Strathclyde Glasgow G1 1XW, UK Email: {jakub.konka, c.michie, i.andonovic, robert.atkinson}@strath.ac.uk, Abstract-Digital Marketplace is a market-based framework for trading mobile communications services at a service level. It is well suited for managing a future mobile communications environment where the one-to-one mapping between network operators and subscribers no longer holds, and the subscribers are given the option to select a network operator and a wireless access technology that matches their preferences best at a service level. As with any market-based framework, it is important to analyse the selling mechanism from the economic perspective. In this paper, we address the deficiencies of previous research on the economic equilibrium of the Digital Marketplace. We achieve this by proposing an approximation to the equilibrium of the Digital Marketplace through the use of an auction with common prior.

Summary The growth of wireless communication toward fifth generation will lead to the existence of number of access technologies to provide seamless connectivity and form heterogeneous network environment. Earlier, there was single access technology to run applications, but 5G will have heterogeneous network environment and provide separate network for each application. As compared with 4G, 5G will provide increase in data rate, decrease in delay, increase in quality of service, and so on because of its various enabling technologies. Therefore, for each application, selection of best access network via its enabling technology is an important task. This selection is done either at user terminal side or at network operator side by combining preferences for network attributes and network parameters. In this paper, to enjoy 5G, selection is done in a heterogeneous networks environment for enabling technologies like device‐to‐device communication, spectrum sharing, enhancing quality of experience, energy efficiency, and so on. This selection is done via optimization techniques for a fixed duration video clip that is to be transmitted from a device running low in battery. The selection environment composed of UMTS, WLAN1, and WLAN2 as available networks. The simulation results show that the network selected for each enabling technology supports various features of 5G. Also, error analysis of selection results is done using confidence interval estimate at 90%, 92%, and 95% confidence level. From results obtained, it is seen that different optimization techniques used to access network for different enabling technologies (providing 5G features) prove to be useful for future 5G network.
