“…Moreover, the dependence on α is also marginal, since it will not alter the ordinal meaning of the utilities. Other results [12], [23] in the field of games with variable positions of the users hint at this principle by confirming it numerically. For the sake of choosing a value, in the following, we will most often refer to the case α = 2, which would correspond to a free-space propagation.…”

“…In this latter case, one should consider smaller values of M to obtain consistent results. These considerations are not limited to vehicular scenarios but also hold, albeit with slightly different models in terms of timescale, speed, LOS vs. non-LOS propagation, to a wide array of networks exploiting RF communication [24], mmWave [33], satellite-aided positioning [34] or underwater acoustic [12]. Moreover, they still apply, to some extent, if the set of available positions is limited [35] and/or the legitimate network agents can approach the jammer to stop it [36].…”

“…However, it seems that the aspect of node mobility is rarely addressed in the literature; there seem to be very few contributions discussing wireless nodes, either the jammer or the intended receiver, which are mobile. Sometimes the nodes can choose their position, but this is never changed afterward and kept as a static move or a Bayesian type [12], without any sort of dynamic update. This is somewhat surprising since next generation wireless systems strongly support terminal mobility, not to mention that the overall performance of the wireless channel capacity is heavily affected by movements of the users [13]- [15].…”

We study a wireless jamming problem consisting of the competition between a legitimate receiver and a jammer, as a zero-sum game with the value to maximize/minimize being the channel capacity at the receiver's side. Most of the approaches found in the literature consider the two players to be stationary nodes. Instead, we investigate what happens when they can change location, specifically moving along a linear geometry. We frame this at first as a static game, which can be solved in closed form, and subsequently we extend it to a dynamic game, under three different versions for what concerns completeness/perfection of mutual information about the adversary's position, corresponding to different assumptions of concealment/sequentiality of the moves, respectively. We first provide some theoretical conditions that hold for the static game and also help identify good strategies valid under any setup, including dynamic games. Since dynamic games, although more realistic, are characterized by an exploding strategy space, we exploit reinforcement learning to obtain efficient strategies leading to equilibrium outcomes. We show how theoretical findings can be used to train smart agents to play the game, and validate our approach in practical setups.
